Cheating cheaty cheatsI'm rubbish at cheating. I was asked to help run a stall at a local fair. We sold squares on a treasure map for 10p a go, with the one closest to the "hidden treasure" winning stuff.
I told my sister where it was. I'd not really thought through how obvious this would be. I've kind of avoided cheating since, what have you cheated at? Confess all, it'll make you feel better.

English GCSE coursework...I cheated not once, but twice.
First time was when we had to write a poem about the environment. Now my dad was a big fan of Marillion, and on one of the albums was a song called Season's End (you can tell whats coming up next can't you!)
So I copied it. Word for word. Except I called it The End of a Season.
The second time was when we had to write a short story.
Now, not 2 weeks before I had got a book of short stories by Stephen King. So I copied one of them. Word for word.
I handed it in and then found out that the teacher waas a big Stephen King fan. Oh dear.
She never realised what I'd done though.
And she gave me 16 out of 20 for it! (I was thinking I should tell Mr King that he's story was no good but decided to let it lie).
