I can somewhat relate, KayAnn. I mean I get in trouble all the friggin' time, which I'm getting sick of doing. But I can't help but 'let go' when the teachers do the stupidest crap and p*ss me off. School starts for me on the 18th of August and I am anything but looking forward to it. In my school, there's like 3 major groups.... the preps. The preppy jocks, too. But the preps who all wear the same brand of clothing, Aeropostale, A&F, GAP, whatever it is, they all have it. Almost NO preps can think for themselves and are so unoriginal. And boy do they talk about those who aren't like them... such as myself. I think the most 'stupidest' argument I ever got into with a few preps was... well let me just explain it. We were in science class, our table were our groups for this project. We had to make a model of something? And then present it to the class. Well, my 'freak' friends and I were at the table right next to the preps. My friends and I glanced around the room and then these people next to us put up their binders to block our view from seeing what they're doing. I asked them what the hell were they doing? They're like, "well, we don't want you to steal our ideas." I'm like... "if I was going to steal ideas, I sure as hell wouldn't steal it from you preps." (You know those odd times in class where everyone gets silent for some reason.) Of course, that odd silence had to happen when I said that. Then everyone was staring at me. Half of the class laughed and the preps stared at me and said, "What?!" Like 'how dare I call them preps...' what they are. Geeze. After that of course, they started talking about me. *|[ If anyone is reading this, just to let you all know how stupid I am... I repeated the 9th grade, because my first freshman year, I skipped about 3/4's of it... so they held me back and now this year I'm in the 10th. I'm retarded. ]|* So, I go to school with a whole age group down from me. I go with 14 and 15 year olds. How embarassing. But... know you all know. The other group is freaks. My school is like 1/3 FREAKS. It's pretty cool. I don't like to classify myself as a freak, but I guess when I say 'freak,' you can think... ORIGINAL people. At my old highschool, no piercings were allowed. Here, they're allowed, even the teachers have them. The other group is the like punk, skater people. No offense, but those people just annoy me. They're always carrying their skateboard and they wear like all Etnies and Vans and DC stuff. They just over-do it a little too much. Then of course, among these 3 groups are the potheads. Weed smells like CRAP. They come to school smelling like it, ew. They're always talking about it, it gets so annoying. I used to think it'd be cool to be a pothead. But, my views have definitely changed on that. Since there are no cameras in my school, there are plenty of places to hang out and smoke. And believe me... they do. I hate school and the teachers think they can just disrespect me and walk all over me because they're "authority" and I'm not. Haha, not gonna happen. That's why I find myself in the office all the friggin' time... which I'll put a stop to this year. Just stay strong, KayAnn. Only 4 years of this crap and you're done with it.

Sorry so long.
