Best way to relieve class boredom

What is the best way to relieve in class boredom? We all know you get it, especially in High School. Share your thoughts.

I say sleep.

In high school, talk to some hot chick.
In college, drop the class and take it online the following semester.

Write stuff. Though it depends on the locale of your class. If it is a large class of 100+, auditorium like, sleep, skipping class all work. If it is in a classroom setting, then you have to look remotely busy. I pretty much doodled a lot. I went through some old notebooks as I coulddn't sleep last night and I noticed hat I did a lot of doodling. And that was to just stay awake!

I do many of those things on the poll. Half the time, I'm too tired in school to care, so I either put my head down and stare and daydream, or just give up and fall asleep.

I either skip or write stuff. As CP_M said, it depends on the setting. I barely ever go to an auditorium lecture, and tend to "forget" to go to some boring classroom lectures now and then as well. Ah, I just don't like school.

notes used to get passed around a lot when i was at school. It was kinda a challenge in itself not to be caught passing a note. Everyone would read it, and often add their own stuff.

One memorable time, someone wrote something about the teacher. They got caught with it, and the teacher demanded to see it, they actually ate it!
It was a bit obvious but at least there was no evidence!

this is a repeat [url]http://www.thrillnetwork.com/boards/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8857[/url]

i have all differant things i do. sometimes if i bring my laptop to class is just play games on it the whole time (but carrying it around and stuff is annoying so i dont bring it to all my classes). the rest is either doodling in my notebooks or just spacing out. one day im going to scan in one of my folders that u made this huge really really detailed design on and post it, its really cool.

That's over two years old, I believe the cutoff is between 6 months to one year in "assuming" a repetition of a thread.
