man i miss high school. everything was so much easier then! you always had saturdays & sundays off, two weeks at christmas, a week in the spring, 3 and 4 day weekends scattered here and there. snow days. and 3 mos off in the summer! you were only there 6hrs or so during the day, and once you hit sophomore year, you could start vocational schools, or lcc, or work release. best of all, you were still dependent on your parents! you didnt have to pay for your own food, or for rent/mortage. no gas or electric bills. no water or sewage dues. for a lot of kids no car insurance or car payments, or any mechanical fixes. you didnt have to worry about getting sick, or getting hurt, because you were covered by health insurance of some type.
and its not like the work was hard anyway. if i could go back, i could probably make straight a's. and join fun clubs, and do (more) sports.

i mean, yeah, the HS drama was stupid. he likes her but she doesnt like him, she likes that guy. so and so said that about such and such. rumors and what not all sucked. but i know people who managed to avoid all of that nonsense. i could avoid it too if i went back.

well, everything but math.
