I\u2019m back at school today after being suspended on Monday. It\u2019s actually quite a funny story; I got suspended for smoking in the bathrooms. Me, James and a couple of other friends were smoking in the bathroom of the main quad. I believe it was Dax who was keeping lookout that afternoon; He started hollering that someone was coming. Everyone started throwing out their butts. But me, still in my drug addled stupor, didn\u2019t hear a thing. Finally I realized what was going on and as I turned around to see what was happening I exhaled a huge puff of flavor country into the Vice Principal\u2019s face.<\/p>\n
Now usually something like this only requires a detention but since I had apparently already missed over 109 days in the school year, I was warranted a suspension, or a full day off school depending on how you look at it. Oh, it was practically a Godsend; I got to wake up at noon as opposed to waking at the crack of dawn. I lazed around the house all day instead of trudging through another long day of boring and useless classes, I think I could really get used to it.<\/p>\n
Well I\u2019m back now, temporarily at least, I know it sounds stupid and na\u00efve but I am going to drop out in the next couple of weeks. I know it must sound ludicrous with only a few weeks left until graduation but its not like I would pass any of my classes if I stayed, I\u2019ve been absent so much that the teachers have already stopped looking at me. In my defense I have been showing up I just don\u2019t take attendance or go to class, I usually just hang out in the quad.<\/p>\n
I want go off and do something better with my life anyway. I\u2019m looking into this film production course in Los Angeles and that\u2019s something that would appear to tickle my fancy. Right now I\u2019m taking a hardcore business course, something that I don\u2019t think I could ever understand let alone tolerate.\u00a0 I may as well cut my losses now and go on to something that could possibly interest me.<\/p>\n
And yes, I know, I know, it\u2019s completely retarded to drop out of school but you know its not like I ever wanted to be a business man, shackled to my little cubicle for twelve hours a day, pushing papers and kissing the boss\u2019 fat ass. So my logic is that I may as well move on gain some freedom in deciding the pat that I want to take with my life and break free of the chains of this oppressive educational system.<\/p>\n
