I was voted "Most Likely to Take a Vow of Silence" and "Most likely to skip a sorority party to study."  No, I'm not lame!  I'm driven:)

It isn't mine but a former friend of mine (which makes this all the more funnier) is a bit on the heavy side and she was attending her first day of class and she thought the teacher was calling her to the front of the class (she was checking out some guy and not paying attention, he was actually just calling role) and she went to stand up to go to him and when she did the desk went with her (around her waist) and she couldn't get it off for a while. The whole class was so confused and they did their best to try and help her but she kept fidgeting.

As a teacher the best one I ever heard was, "I squeezed the toothpaste too hard and it took me half an hour to get it back into the tube."\n\nAlso a good laugh was the boy who told me, "Last night while I was asleep my dog peed on the clothes I had ready for school and I didn't have any more clean clothes so my mom had to wash them and dry them before I could come to school."\n\nHOw about, "My dog ate my alarm clock"? That's a common one ...I see you already have it.\n\n"Our toaster is really old so it takes a long time to get all the toast made and this morning it was my turn to be last."\n\n"Last night our house was invaded by ants and it took an hour this morning for us to kill them all."\n\nReally, we teachers have heard lots of them, and we usually know that the real reason is that you overslept or something like that, so the truth is usually the best option .... unless you can think of something really funny that will give everyone a chuckle and if your teacher is the sort of person who will appreciate it ...they'll still know it's just a story but it might help .... if you don't make a habit of being late!!

Good luck.  I doubt seriously they will accept your "I wasn't supposed to be in those classes anyway" excuse.

You don't need to go no where, stay at your desk since the boss is fine with it.  Tell others, I'm busy and I'll talk to you when I get a minute.  Failing the class would be your fault, not theirs.\nMom of B & D

I don't see how they could refuse to give you an excuse, if you're just asking for documentation that you were under their care.  How would they like it if you refused to pay for the same care?\n\nIf you're asking the doctors to say that you could not have attended class during those two weeks, then they must be disagreeing with you.  Unless they told you to skip class and stay home, you were supposed to go to school.  They're not going to give you an excuse after the fact for something they don't excuse.\n\nAll that said, I recommend you show your professors the receipts/reports from your doctor's appointments.  That way, they will be able to see that you went to the doctor's office five times.  I am a professor, and that would probably be enough for me, if you completed all the make-up work quickly and weren't asking for any special consideration.

Some teachers in the school where I work use a system like this.  Instead of having a late student disrupt a class, the student has to fill out a short form before coming into class and leave it in a box by the teacher.  Then, the student just sits quietly and the teacher can record the tardy later.  Saves disruptions from explanations ("I had to go to the bathroom really bad and I didn't know if I could get here in time so I decided to just go since asking you first would just take more time and I didn't want ot miss more of your class than I had to but I really had to go and please don't mark me late again because I'll have detention OK Ms.D??")

Have the doctor write on the note;\n\n"Please excuse (student) for medical reasons".\n\nIf he has any further questions, tell him it's personal and he cannot press you.

You should have learned the material in class so you wouldn't have to cram and do last minute study. Have a couple of beers.

I was in college and walking through the main building that contained the cafeteria. It was completely packed because it was about lunch time. \n\nwas looking absolutely marvelous...topping off my outfit were some incredibly high heels. I was making my way down the stairs when I adjusted my incredibly heavy backpack from one shoulder to the other. As I was doing this the thought was running through my head, "Man Pipsy, you look HOT today!" \n\nHowever, this shift in weight caused me to lose my balance. I went tumbling down about 2 sets of stairs head first and onto the cafeteria floor.\n\nThere was complete silence. People just stopped what they were doing and looked at me. Then people who were on the stairs stopped to help me up, people who were outside apparently saw the commotion though the glass wall and came in to help me, I was mortified!\n\nTo top it off I had to walk through the sea of people to get out, it was the only way.\n\nThat's what I get for thinking I look good and wearing high heels.\nGod has a funny way of knocking you off of your high horse.
