If you attended an Irish school. you may still be plagued with those memories. Almost all of us share them. We wore braces, long brushed wool skirts and 'doodling' was a thing we did for most of the day. The most barren parts of our school existence have even become the butt of a trending social media joke. But was school all that bad? See if you can relate to any of the more popular posts trending at the moment: 1. You and your school buddy were born to be best frenemies   2. School is more important than your actual health       3. It prepares you for the grade A plebs of the world      4. That you have, and will continue to have no control over your emotions 5. That you are amazingly talented at the bullsh*t (from an early age) 6. That sex is regarded as a dance with the Devil 7. That you are not going to become President, anytime soon   8. In life, you can get away with murder if you are creative 9. That talent will shine through, no matter what 10. That storytelling can be a scary event when you are young
