My teacher asked the whole class to show like our speciality or something…  
Some of my friends dance, and sing, and draw…  
I said yoyo…  
And the teacher told me to show tricks…  
I just did trapeze and everyone is amazed…  
And I do eli hops, and impress them more.  
I did some combos, and Boing-e boing  
I failed at the boing-e-boing but they still like “Whoa…”  
LOL…  
Well if I show them like buddha’s revenge, cold fusion, kwijibo…  
They’re not really impressed… ;D

You guys are very lucky, on my school every1 is nice to each other, but if someone does anything that isnt well know like diabolo they start saying that is lame or something like that. So I don’t even try, my yoyo would probably get taken away. (stupid school).

But my friends are cool with it, they are impressed.

Don’t worry, the world isn’t accepting of different things at first. Just bring it and do some simple tricks like whips with the diabolo or behind the back catch and they will soon appreciate it and eventually, some new apprentices.

Oh yeah…  
Once I play yoyo in front of kids…  
And I do string tricks…  
And they said that I sucks…  
Like this, “My cousin is better because he can do the swinging thing(Around the world) and Rock the Baby”  
LOL…  
When I show them that trick they still say that I sucks

well i yo-yo in school but sadly i go to a private school so the teachers are all like hey you cant do that here! the only teacher who likes it is my history/science/a bunch of other stuff but thats only because shes my grandma lol. my friends at school are amazed when i do a bind return.lol.

the only place where i get attention is in costa rica on vacation.(we go every 2 yrs). the waiters at the hotel always try to use my lunatic and say like im amazing but then cant get it up because its non-responsive lol. the trick that people like the most from me is the zipper lol.

it is still a very commanding and insane to prohibity that. why shouldn’t kids at a school could do some yoyo ? (now why is the statue of liberty build in your country?) :wink:

Oh yeah one time, I pulled out my Legacy, and tried playing with it. Next thing I know is that people were all around me. Then one teacher came in and I thought I was going to be in trouble then she was all like, “I would cry if you didn’t go to the Multi-Cultural Night”. And so I need to like practice and stuff so I actually was thinking of something that would make the crowd go crazy. It’s going to be at March 23 so if you have an idea of something that would really make the crowd go crazy please suggest. Besides 1A tricks.
