ok, every school has it's share of dumb, ignorant people that make the semi-smart people want to pull thier hair out. My schoool is no exception.

example: Friday during Marketing class, I was in one of the school stores getting the money out of the register to count it. I have the door shut which is a good indacation the store is closed because we keep the door open when the store is open. Some boys (freshmen of course) try to open the door which is locked, so they procede to pound on the door. I go and tell them we are not open. And you know what they ask? "Can we buy something?" DUH! I tell them slowly "we are not open" They ask the famous question "why?" I tell them to leave. They keep bugging me. I shut the door in thier face and continue to do what I'm doing. Ingoring the fact they are still pounding on the door. They give up and leave but not before flipping me off and yelling something obscene. (use your imangation)

But thats nothing, we've actually had people moon us when we wouldn't let them buy anything. I mean come on people!! We're in high school! Act like semi-mature adults. I'm not the most mature person in the school, but I dont go mooning other people when they are trying to do thier job. Or anytime for that matter.

And don't even get me started on the bomb threats...

That sounds horrible! Some people have no decency these days...

Ever consider setting up a blog? This is the sort of the stuff you can put in it, without putting it all over the forum.

Ever considered writing this in your school paper, or putting it in a letter to your prinicpal?

I know the feeling, I totally know that feeling.
Only I once ended up tackling a few people and beating them in blind rage. ... I got imfamous for beating COlton up one day in Gym class after he purposely was tackilgn these girls for their pbasketball and then threw it right in my face.

Agreed.

And that's about it from me.

Your high school has stores? WTF?!

We had one table that sold bad coffee during lunch, that was it. That wasn't even all the time, only when the drama department decided they needed some cash.

There's an elementary school here that has a store...Yeah...

people are dumb. period. And a surpisingly large number of them go to "rich" schools that supposedly give "good" educations

My high school has a store, and trust me: nerds, band geeks, chess players, etc etc get the worst of all your getting. I should know, I qualify on all counts.

nerds, band geeks, and chess players all qualify under one category. That was like saying "trust me: birds, ducks, geese, etc etc..."

I totally feel for you. I go to a school were over half the people are failing (we're year four on NCLB--that No Child Left Behind for people not in America) and I'm taking colledge level courses. Sometimes I feel like going: HOW CAN YOU PEOPLE EVEN EXIST?!

Graduation cannot come fast enough.

Ah yes, graduation, when college forcefully sunders your friends apart from you in a cataclysmic grief-fest of happiness and sadness.
Hope you got their number.

Let your school paper know. Let everyone know theyre an "ass".

Lamalama- on our gracious and beautiful Galatea's computer:


Over half the kids are failing? I find this statistic hard to believe.

While I do so hate the NCLB act, I can say that a student failing is not due to this act. You cannot force any student to learn, if they choose not too, then they wont. Moreover, the kids who DO get left behind are generally the smarter ones, who can do more work on their own, and are now no longer expected too. Their grades dwindle, but not to the point where they are failing.

Also, San Dimus highschool football RULES!!

at least you guys have a store, the only thing we had way $2.50 hot chocolate for a fundraiser...of course, they never told us what the fundraiser was for...
