GRADE SCHOOL MEMORIES - Lunch Break!

[@TheChego]

Wes drawing Cathy's hair in Hitting on Cathy was inspired by true events

[@thewesleychan]

truth.

[@WhatchuWon]

Haha!! I was totally thinking that when I saw the title! :D ... "I drew you!"

[@farhinbhuiyan]

Omg Taylor just being a flirt lol

[@kellykarrot9430]

No touching? Wes I recall you cutting off a lock of Cathy's hair 😂

[@thewesleychan]

we dont talk about that anymore.

[@sparklefarter]

Aw yes! Projectors! It actually MADE me want to write down my notes and have a race with friends to see who could write the fastest. Plus I would try to write my neatest while doing so. Those unsung heroes in class who spoke for everyone who wasn't done writing yet, thank you! 😂😭😭 ouuu #doodlersunite !

[@thewesleychan]

uniting!

[@WhatchuWon]

Not to mention when the teacher used a coloured pen or chips it was like a magical day.

[@jennaful420]

Wesley Chan senpai!! Did Taylor/Mills have chalkboards back then? I only remember seeing one or two in a few science classes.

[@carmel9t]

+

[@amaee3937]

I like how Wong Fu replies to a lot of their comments, it makes me feel loved as a fan

[@thewesleychan]

[@philchao]

there's some tense recess rivalry here. i suggest they play dodgeball next!

[@thewesleychan]

so many games. so little time..

[@masterjackoff2047]

phil chao yes! I suggest dodgeball with metal spikes coming out of the ball

[@ndrewtram]

Oh man. And FIELD TRIPS!? Nevermind getting to see a movie - you get to actually leave the classroom for pretty much a full day and have a chance to learn/explore new places :)

[@thewesleychan]

dude. yes

[@chachieabara1635]

I knew who edited this lunch break even without looking at the descriptions.....CHRIS! Nice job sir

[@thewesleychan]

he good

[@rebekahjohnson1381]

Chachie Abara, ha ha, I was thinking that too, because he really highlights Tay. 😏

[@sarafazad6416]

Chachie Abara #taeisbae!

[@xxMrBeaverxx524]

I like how can tell that Taylor was THAT kid in school

[@thewesleychan]

he's still THAT kid

[@xxMrBeaverxx524]

Cool to see you on a roll in the comments section Wes!

[@monkey042397]

Oh my gosh I can relate to everything! Everything that your guys talked about was basically my life in elementary school. I was that quiet girl who would try to sit in the back and everyone copied off of me. So many memories... good and bad ones. :)

[@thewesleychan]

good relations

[@rachellin2253]

"Did I ask you?" The sassiest moment of Jen 🙌🏻

[@GlamourKillsTian]

1. cleaning the overhead projector slides 2. bill nye the science guy 3. trading yu gi oh cards at recess

[@samusuhendi7849]

This was probably the funniest lunch break (4 me) because I could relate to so many things in this video

[@thewesleychan]

woohoo!

[@animatedphysics3390]

Wesley Chan Sham...

[@evelinel.4765]

It's amazing how we are half a globe away yet our school memories sound so similar. Chalkboards, projectors, collecting stickers, guys constantly kicking our chairs (looking at you, Taylor!)... Even those TV racks, we had them too! These episodes always make me feel that Singapore is not that far from the West Coast after all

[@jessicaratcliffe4472]

When everyone in the class room looks at you because your name is in the math problem and they are wondering what you could possibly do with 110 watermelons. hahahaha

[@ashleymatsunami9255]

Hahahaha 😂

[@un4getabl3mem0ries]

Such a nostalgic ep!!

[@thewesleychan]

all the nostals

[@VinoDeRio]

When the science class got to watch episodes of Bill Nye the Science guy! :D Ahh childhood

[@toniamark]

YAY! team draw around the circle :D :D

[@thewesleychan]

best team EVAR!

[@salliele5330]

this is one of the best topics on lunch break!

[@JaredSunTan]

I'm like 10 years younger than Wes, but I identified with everything that he said.

[@thewesleychan]

i appreciate this :D

[@nafisachowdhury26]

same here!

[@sarafazad6416]

Jared Tan OMG same but im like 2.5 ish times yohnger than him

[@sarafazad6416]

wesley chan I appreciate you and your freaking beauty!

[@flamingsasuke]

Did anyone else have those Rainbow Gel pens or just colorful gel pens in their elementary school?!!? The more gel pens someone had, the cooler they were. And people always borrowed them to use them in class lolol. I hope I wasn't the only one who enjoyed that haha

[@estyzesty]

omg I loved gel pens!

[@_jennle]

GELLY ROLLS

[@leaderoftaehyungnation9766]

flamingsasuke I did and still do.

[@thewesleychan]

i didnt have any. guess that makes me gelly

[@flamingsasuke]

LOL I lost them all now Wes, I kind of want to buy them again now haha

[@vietlee4290]

What a coincidence Ashley you are exactly my type. I hate it when people who are dumber than potatoes want to copy my notes and work.

[@SuperbadXx]

yeah cos taking notes make u smart. Have u ever considered they're way smarter and dont need to take notes and just ask for them as back up? yeah, who's dumber than a potato now

[@vietlee4290]

SuperbadXx Damn, I'm dumber than people who took summer school after failing test and test? Because those were the type who asked.

[@0123456789cooldude]

Viet Lee *gasp* you can't comment that Ashley is your type, what if Hoolia of jknews sees that comment. You'll make her sad

[@rosenazhuang6877]

This is my entire childhood story. One of my fav lunch breaks:) too relatable

[@eklecticismm]

I remember having "Pizza Days" about once a month or so in elementary school. It was one of the things I would look forward to every time haha

[@ItsKingNando]

The nostalgia is so real in this :') Also I can pretty much relate to Wes in everything this episode

[@Patricia61922]

Wes is killing it in the comments. Also, many classes at UCSD podcast now. You don't need to use a phone to record lectures. The video of each lecture is online.

[@thewesleychan]

UCSD, you changed bro

[@5591lovebabyy]

Patricia61922 my high school teachers had podcasts and KZbin channels it's awesome!

[@dtn006]

I miss those desks!!

[@thewesleychan]

they miss you too

[@bhle2k016]

Heads up seven up on rainy days

[@indiecloud100]

bhle2k I loved it 😄

[@marellatumambing7438]

I loved that we would watch Bill Nye the Science Guy and everyone would scream "BILL BILL BILL BILL! BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY!"

[@BonnieSzechubbybunnie]

18 and started my first semester of college so its been how long since elementary school?...well relate to pretty much everything...the tv and overhead and all lol

[@indiecloud100]

Bonnie Inspirit same... sigh, I miss those times

[@fgomez98]

Anyone think of "Hitting on Cathy" when Wes was talking about girls' hair? lmao

[@hannahkeating97]

I'm a freshman in college, so I can relate to basically everything you guys said. On rainy days, we used to play Heads Up 7-Up and watch VHS films. And I totally remember those overhead projector sheets, I used to have to clean them off when I was a TA.

[@PhanglyPhish]

My dad was a professor when I was in elementary school and would bring home used transparencies to wash. It was so satisfying to watch the marker wash away! It was extra fun to draw on the transparencies with my dad's vis-a-vis markers. I have not thought about that in years - thanks for the trip down memory lane! :D

[@lalita277]

My math high school teacher to this day still uses a projector every day

[@thewesleychan]

he's awesome.

[@bevyberry]

haha didn't know Taylor was such a trolling kid XD

[@ashleymatsunami9255]

Taylor is still such a trolling kid 😖

[@christinadinh8286]

We have that overhead projector with transparencies still

[@thekristineway]

i wish this episode was longer!!

[@potatoooo144]

Wes looked so lost when they were talking about cubby desks. He was like what are they saying.. Ashley is like me in class. HIGH FIVE!!!

[@ashleymatsunami9255]

😄✋🏼💥

[@butter.fly.butterfly]

"...you rejected those bullies" THANK YOU, WES. YES THEY WERE BULLIES :'(

[@thewesleychan]

got you

[@angiesmiles16]

My college physics teacher still uses transparencies

[@thewesleychan]

boss

[@Make_It_Ro]

Rainy days = Heads up, 7 up! I literally relived my childhood watching this episode.

[@sirlancelot148]

So many nostalgic feels. I miss being a kid

[@mailman1021]

Ashley's facial expressions in this ep were hilarious! lol I remember the desks with the big openings... we used to clip our clipboards to the top for easy access. and put our backpacks on the back of our chairs so people like TAYLOR couldn't poke or kick us through the chair hole.... hahahaha

[@Ebathora]

I love the barter system/black market every grade school seemed to have. 3D stickers, tamagotchis, and beyblades were so valuable, interesting school supplies like gel pens and smelly erasers were too, and trading lunches was such a thing.

[@emilyemiranda]

I loved that whenever we had rainy day schedule on PE days, we'd just stay inside and do this cool drawing video! I wish I remembered the name...

[@junsukute1512]

it's so amazing that even I live in the opposite part of the globe, but I can relate to almost everything you guys talked about school life.

[@byronchan2435]

Couldn't stop thinking about how reliable this is! I remember finding different ways of passing notes like rolling up notes inside a pen or in a pencil sharpener.

[@chachieabara1635]

AWW JENN HIGH FIVE* I am like that too! ✌

[@SuddenWhispers]

LOL jenn is my spirit animal. that sass tho when someone would pull her hair back in the day XD

[@_jennle]

ain't no one touching my hair!

[@rebekahjohnson1381]

First time in a long time I could catch this during my actual lunch at work! 😜❤️

[@thewesleychan]

in sync!

[@salliele5330]

Wesley Chan NSYNC! if we're going to talk about going back in time!

[@rebekahjohnson1381]

Wesley Chan Yes, well done. 👏

[@rebekahjohnson1381]

Al Le, takes me back to high school! 😹

[@wutitdo0]

ashley's expression from 3:33 on at Taylor is priceless. just so confused LOL

[@notjoepark4956]

this video proves how old wes is

[@thewesleychan]

you babies!

[@rebekahjohnson1381]

Wesley Chan, right! Where all the 30+ peeps?! 😎

[@mysticstrikeforce5957]

Awe don't worry you'll turn into west some day in the future just let your self grow a little.

[@Bastyan2]

Jenn is much more open! I remember at the beginning of Lunch Break she hardly spoke. She is so great! :D Great work Wong Fu.

[@wesleyy2502]

When Taylor talked about the poking. Memories came back when there were poke wars.

[@jasonng6771]

Lol the real poke wars before facebook

[@sunnyl818]

3:37 WES' LAUGH IS SO CUTE :3

[@eunicet.7655]

Same as Jen... quiet kids being taken advantage of while secretly munching on Choco chip muffins... and also a doodler STILL in high school and all of this is totally relateable!

[@martinezjason1]

Getting hyped during the intro of Bill Nye the Science guy lol

[@ActuallyGoose]

The nostalgia of hearing all of these, especially the rainy day/tv

[@mah.iyah.]

And I also liked bringing fun toys to elementary school! I would always bring Pokemon cards to trade, Pokemon figures to play with, and sometimes stuff animals lol. Pokemon cards eventually got banned from being brought to school since everyone would get so distracted by them, but some kids would have secret meetings behind the school buildings to play and trade cards lol xD

[@thewesleychan]

we would be friends

[@mah.iyah.]

Wesley Chan let's be friends lol

[@thewesleychan]

we are friends

[@mah.iyah.]

Wesley Chan hooray! 😁

[@starlee19]

Lmao projectors were the best AND the worst. Cause they turned off the lights I'd almost fall asleep, but then it meant that the teacher could only write so fast LOL. and then you could always tell if the handouts were photocopies of the transparencies hahaha

[@ExilixE]

hahaha, Ashleys face from 3:32 to 3:44 😂😂 it was my face exactly. Excited and class should never be in the same sentence.

[@sharonmai5017]

We had a huge marbles phase at my elementary school. You would draw a circle in the dirt and try to knock the other person's marble out of the ring. You can play for keepsies so that you would keep the other person's marble of they lost. There was also a competition for who had the coolest marble too!

[@gentlecard_tom]

I'm a teen and my elementary school was pretty much the same. Like the desks, Transparencies (in 1st and 2nd grade), having my friends take my math homework, and playing trading card games. I miss grade school.

[@ghothaney90]

This lunch break made me go down the memory lane too and love the editing. Well done guys. 😄

[@cocoabananaYum]

Watching this episode was so nostalgic! Loved it!

[@jiayichen3420]

editing is on point👌🏼

[@thewesleychan]

Go Chris!

[@AlexiBolo]

I think I've never seen Wes laugh so much in an episode...makes me so happy :,)

[@carysw7275]

I am the worst at making notes cuz I always get distracted by something

[@thewesleychan]

we understand..

[@wesleypatterson3286]

me as a kid: *sees the TV cart* "YO!!!!! lets freaking GO!!!!!!" *pumps fist*

[@thewesleychan]

Yus

[@wesleypatterson3286]

oh my god you commented back!!!!!!! :'D!!!!!!!

[@potatofan007]

It's interesting since I was a teacher for 5th grade and subbed in other grades a few times too. So having my own childhood experiences in school, and having my experiences in school as a teacher. It's crazy! And I will say, having a sub was usually more work than anything else, having to write out a lesson plan and procedures for everything is exhausting! And having to warn them of the kids who would probably be up to trouble. Oh school memories...

[@prestonnguyen9517]

I had the transparencies last year! ( in middle school... I recently enrolled in high school, but it's titled as an electronic school...)

[@thewesleychan]

whoa e-school

[@josiahh.3437]

Team doodlers unite!

[@monicacolleendominguez9716]

The markers used for those transparencies are called, "Vis a Vis"...I miss those!

[@WhatchuWon]

I think this was my favorite lunch break thus far :) Loved the topic and the editing!

[@booksandbrambles]

Gel pens were the bessstt back in the day! And I always would decorate the front of my binders or folders when I was bored. Good times :)

[@hin_0546]

I used to show off my fancy school supplies with cartoon characters on them and everyone was like "I wish I had that too!!" and you will know that you gonna be the cool kid at that time😂😂

[@Joelasagangsta28]

In primary school, we had under-desks to store our work. On more than one occasion, there was was huge huntsman spider among my stuff. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

[@seahawks8083]

Yep I remembered all those stuff. But my favorite times were recess and playing outside and PE class. I loved being active and outside. I used to bring hair stuff and do other girls hair, also I loved brining in my dolls. I remember just playing house or like teachers who were amazing

[@IceWingX]

Snow Days in Elementary - High school were the BEST, especially if you had to ride the school bus! No class and whatever needed to be due that day could be handed in the day after!!! (No online submission back then!!)

[@ShayMa]

Wes is a legend in the comments

[@imatsfo]

Great episode, super relatable. I can't take notes as fast as I used to anymore, I used to be the best. My mnemonic device was music. I was a good quiet student that did my work so they let me listen to music while studying.

[@nicoledy1900]

ugh i could totally relate to people taking advantage of my notes!!! I'm in college and it STILL HAPPENS. anyways, great lunch break! you guys rock!

[@makaylafleisher2369]

Fell in love with shorts and stayed for lunch break

[@lucianatiemi2571]

Can we please have makeup and hair tutorials from the girls??? You look flawless 💖

[@jeruworld8812]

Honestly, I relate to ever single thing you guys mentioned!

[@ShShShDoDoDo]

I remember trying to write my notes as small as I could so people couldn't cheat off of me! Thanks for the nostalgic trip guys!

[@ErikAndTheMadness]

I love Lunch Breaks; you guys are my vicarious crew.

[@pennypixie]

lol, Ashley's face while Taylor is talking about the teacher's handwriting on the transparency.

[@ariyanaf4205]

This gave me so many happy flashbacks

[@李天-g4c]

DANG! I haven't watched Wong Fu for so long! (PLEASE SELL THE RHINO AND PANDA SHIRTS AGAIN 🙏🙏🙏)

[@poopoo5714]

I'm still a doodler

[@thewesleychan]

never change

[@josiahh.3437]

Matthew Tsoi Same here.

[@TramNguyen-vj5nq]

Every year in elementary school, there's always an end of the year store in class. We get little presents we pick from our stash of good behavior tickets/cash. Stuff like erasers and stickers and what not...

[@viaxshine_9749]

i enjoy seeing taylors personality more and more. especially in this Lunch Break haha

[@oDiiJei]

I'm surprised you didn't bring up note passing! My school was huge on note passing and trying to be as creative as possible with folding the not and messages to unveil while unfolding it. Also in class recess during rainy days! Heads Up 7up, 4 corners (i think that was the name), Bingo, etc!

[@adilah1000]

i remember going into my freshman year, and when an upper classmen saw which teacher i was getting for a class, they were like "she has the best handwriting. she's so good" & it was just filled with all this nice goodness-compliments about her hahaha

[@stephaniezevallos5784]

True...true ...that paper hole is my life❤️👌🏼👌🏼

[@meilinli]

omg... everything was so on point!!! I miss grade school...

[@mpzee]

it's been over a month and the "halal guys" intro still makes me smile 😢❤️

[@chuckthegirl]

I remember all the cool kids had Trapper-Keepers and spiral notebooks. I always wanted one but my mom was all about saving money so I was like the only one in my class who had loose leaf paper in a 3-ring binder. As far as flirting went, one of my friends told a boy in our 5th grade class I had Mickey Mouse bras so then he always sang the Mickey Mouse Club song with changed lyrics about my bra. He also liked to snap the girls' bras too. I remember the TV's and overhead projectors too. We didn't start getting white boards until I was in high school. I always liked going outside to beat the dust out of the erasers. Oh! and the field trips! There was something better about riding the bus for a field trip rather than to get to and from school.

[@kiramiddleton8359]

sooooo Chris edited this episode, that's how you know I watch a lot of Wong Fu. it's definitely not a bad thing though👏👏☺😊

[@anne_1314]

this ep was so much fun to watch!! so relatableeee hahaha
