I honestly have no idea what to write in my blog. What do people even put in blogs? But anyways I'll write about how unbelievably obnoxious our school is, sorry in advance this will most likely be rant. So yesterday in oasis i desperately needed to use a computer to finish my position paper (thank you Mr. Bielinksi for making us do a work cited). So I walk into the oasis and sign in and then I try to sign out to go up to the computer lab or library so i can get some work done. When I'm signing my name on the sheet I realize that there's only one spot open in the computer lab open and no spots open in the library so I'm all excited that I got there first. And then some kid by an undisclosed name practically shoves me out of the way and throws his pass at Ms. Capozzi so she signs it first. She lets him go up to the computer lab while I'm standing there waiting for her to sign my pass. Meanwhile this kid is someone who I'm 99% sure wasn't even going to the computer lab and even if he did he was just going to sit there and play games or watch music videos on the computer for eighty minutes. I asked her if I can still go and she's like "Absolutely not" so obviously I got kind of annoyed and apparently I rolled my eyes or something and she proceeded to scream at me and tell me that I had to calm down and that she's sick of kids yelling at her for absolutely nothing. This was unbelievably aggravating since I wasn't doing anything rude to her in the slightest way so I just walked away. I have dance on Thursday nights from 4-10 so it's not like I could go home after school and do it that night. So I just left with one of my friends who has early dismissal and went home and finished my paper. Me, being a huge nerd, have always been absolutely terrified of skipping school and I've never done it. Until yesterday I never realized how easy it is. You'd think the guys who stands in the little huts would be suspicious of a bunch of girls piled into a car but they didn't even stop us.
But anyways now I'm all paranoid that I'm going to get caught, but I really don't think I did anything wrong. I mean of course I know that skipping school is wrong and that you really aren't supposed to do it but it's not like I skipped school to miss it. I skipped school so I could actually go home and do work instead of sitting in the cafeteria for 80 minutes wasting oxygen. I just think if the school can't provide me resources I need that I should be able to and get them for myself, and if that means leaving school because I can't use one of 200 computers in this school than so be it.

i like it how you called that little thing out there a hut. ha ha ha. but those guys could care less anyways so they're like "Are those girls leaving? oh well we're getting paid anyways."

This school hires new "teacher assistants" each year and they obviously don't do a good job because most of them don't return. I think this school focuses more on people who are doing bad things rather than good things. I think that many people realize that they still can't even stop them from doing bad things, so they continue

This school is completely ridiculous with this kind of thing, and I think it's fabulous that you skipped school in order to do your homework, as dorky as it is. :]
