An update. An update! With actual content!

Dear readers,

it has been quite some time since this blog saw an update with actual content.

Unfortunately my private situation doesn't allow for writing myself at the moment. However, as I am a switcher, I also enjoy setting lines for others to write, and I had the pleasure of having a pupil under strict detention recently. Let's call her Anastasia (she doesn't want to be mentioned by her real name here).

I don't want to bore you with the details. Let's just say that Anastasia had to write lines for me a week ago. And I gave a strict rules and a strict timetable - her detention included writing lines and standing in the corner at set times. Because she broke some of those rules (only minor things - but really, does it matter? Breaking a rule is not tolerated) she asked for another detention.

I told her to write this paragraph 75 times:

"My teachers know best what is good for me and my education. I therefore have to follow the rules they have set me at all times. If I misbehave or break the school rules they have every right and obligation to punish me in order to correct and improve my behaviour. These lines serve as reminder that I did not follow the rules and have disappointed my teachers."

To add some spice, and to not let her get into a writing flow, I gave a strict schedule of alternating writing and corner time. This was at her own request. I'm not sadistic enough to come up with that idea myself ;-) and I certainly wouldn't want that to be imposed on me, especially as it doesn't quite fit into my concept of a school detention. Afterwards she confirmed that she simultaneously liked and hated it.

Now as I said, I'm not sadistic. However, when I checked her lines I couldn't help but have an evil smile on my face when I looked at one of her discarded pages.
I told her that I wanted her to write on both sides of the paper. And that I wanted all papers completely free of mistakes, that means front and back side. So if she did a mistake on the back side, well that's too bad, because she had to discard the front side as well.

 

What happened to Anastasia here is pretty much the worst case scenario. Making a mistake on the penultimate line of page 8 - and having to discard page 7 and 8 in the process. Poor girl. I wish I could have been there in the very moment when she realised she made a mistake, just to see her face.

What I liked about the whole detention was that the thrill for me is basically the same. I love the thought of the opposites - one person under strict rules, the other person free to do as he or she pleases - but being the teacher has the benefit that it is less time consuming. :-)

Anastasia wrote a little story based upon her experience that day. While many details come from her fantasy, the general procedure is based on pretty much what happened. Have fun reading it (click "read more" to see it).

Thank you, Anastasia, for letting me publish your story.

Starting the year with a dreadful punishment

Dear readers,

I couldn't spend much time in my schoolgirl role in December and most of November, so I was willing to get back to that. I hoped for a slow start, however the punishment I received was probably the most extensive that I ever received.

I had to write "Die Schüler müssen im Unterricht die korrekte Uniform tragen, sonst müssen sie zur Strafe Zeilen schreiben." (translation: "The pupils have to wear the correct uniform in class, otherwise they have to write lines as punishment.")

One. Thousand. Times.

What happened? On New Years Day I decided to wear knee socks instead of the wool tights that are to be worn with my winter uniform (I had shaved my legs and wanted to feel the smothness, hence the knee socks). I also forgot to put on my cardigan which is also a mandatory part of the winter uniform. And to top that all, I haven't worn my hat.

Senorita Sanchez caught me wearing the incorrect uniform and gave me my - I have to say well deserved - punishment. I had to start writing right away in the late evening and completed the first 98 lines that evening.

 

 

  

For the next day, Senorita Sanchez put under strict detention rules which she supervised via webcam. I had to start writing at 8:00 in the morning. I was allowed a 10-minute break every two hours, as well as two 20-minute breaks at 13:00 and 19:00. Only during these breaks was I allowed to stop writing, or to go to the bathroom or drink and eat something. Otherwise I had to continue writing, writing, writing - until midnight!

I have no idea how I survived this day, but somehow I managed it. I completed the assignment upto line 862.

Interestingly I was ordered to wear knee socks - so I was actually wearing the things that earned me my punishment in the first place.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

As you can imagine, my hand hurt a lot after this day. This was only topped by the pain in my neck (from looking down on my desk all day).

Fortunately for both my hand and my neck I was busy with real life stuff the next two days. I finished the assignment on Saturday.

  

  

  

This was definitely a punishment that pushed my way over my comfort zone and I hope I will never be punished again like this.

I still have this fantasy of having to attend a Saturday detention and complete countless lines as well as homework over a weekend, but a 16-hour-detention(!) with almost no breaks is definitely out of the question in the future. I don't think that this is in any way healthy.

Now obviously this is a difficult topic. Is it a punishment when you're still in your comfort zone? Is it a real school scenario when the pupil can stipulate certain terms? etc.

Everyone must answer these questions for themselves, I suppose. Personally, as a switcher, I'm not a fan of such extreme punishments. I'm more of a "GentleDom", using punishment not to satisfy sadistic tendencies but to correct wrong behaviour. Punishments should be uncomfortable and painful, yes. Maybe they should even bend the limits of the culprit a little bit. But it should in all cases stay safe, sane and consensual.

I definitely learned my lesson (that's the positive side, I suppose), but I also hope to never be subjugated to something like this again. "Normal" detentions (=realistic school detentions of, let's say, 6-8 hours) are fine, but 16-hour-detentions are torture.
