McCreeper @McCreeper (777) • United States 10 Jan 13

Have you ever slept in class, and not get caught for it? I find English class to be one of the easier classes to sleep in, the main reason is when I read. From the very start of the semester, I read by backing my seat and putting...

3SnuggleBunnies @3SnuggleBunnies (16374) • United States 23 Mar 12
