I heard people say that uniforms are good in schools where kids from poor family backgrounds would be bullied for the way they dress, but I am not sure it works that way...<br />Packing is an art form for sure! :)<br /><br />@TarkabarkaHolgy from <br /><a href="http://multicoloreddiary.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Multicolored Diary</a> <br /><a href="http://hungarykum.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">MopDog</a><br />A Tarkabarka Hölgyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06719668142192116685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4708230140827355204.post-4601707126857205472016-04-27T18:49:22.478+01:002016-04-27T18:49:22.478+01:00We do spend an awful lot of energy managing -- or ...We do spend an awful lot of energy managing -- or trying to manage -- the image we project, don't we?

I loved living on a boat and in a camper with nobody I knew around. I never really cared about what I wore and this last decade, it didn't matter either. Now, on land, I am a bit more aware of my wardrobe, when I plan to leave the property.<br /><br />Liesbet @ <a href="%E2%80%9Dwww.roamingabout.com%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">Roaming About – A Life Less Ordinary</a> Liesbethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13402741679152508367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4708230140827355204.post-74309968231289901742016-04-27T15:26:05.266+01:002016-04-27T15:26:05.266+01:00I used to be against school uniforms until I stare...I used to be against school uniforms until I stared teaching.
