You hang out with baby's? You're a baby? Ha ha. I know what he meant though; but it's still funny.

Though, I skimmed through 2 or 3 posts. Anyway, I was in the same position about 2 years back when I was in high school. School to me was a prison, and prison was hell. I got to the point where I was going to dropped out but I made a sweet deal with my councilor: I could attend school 3 days a week, and still graduate. The reasons for my drop out was: THE ENVIRONMENT. School was holding my back on my career, and I was focus on that. Particularly, general education was being taught again. Which to me was a complete waste of time, and wasting my time... was a NO! Including those "Little things". I was pretty much a head of my game, and my colleague... didn't seem fit to be my colleagues. Most of them were chasing after each other. Particularly, there was this one time where in Physical Education, you had to change into your Exercising Cloths. Thus storing all of your belonging into a locker. One time, I stored my stuff into my locker, and the locker was easily broken into. It was basically throwing stuff on the table for students to take. And there goes all my belongings... Now that high school was done, life is a BLAST. College is awesome because I can take my sweet time in my education, and make it into a form as big as I want it to be. I wish I can say more... but... there just way too much.. I will keep track of your blog. I read your whole blog Dave, and I got to say most of it hits the spot.

And I don't see why children require what, thirteen years of waking-up-early-practice. Getting up early is still going to be incomfortable whether your eight or twenty-eight. And in practicing, health problems arise as well as bad marks so if you really assess the cost-benefit ratio of this scenario, the negatives outweigh the positives. Also, many people who one would see as requiring an introduction to waking up early would probably not choose work that has them waking up early anyway.

Are you saying people in grade 5-6 still play with dolls and figurines? Maybe only a small group - you and few other guys, but generally by the time people enter highschool, they would have abanded the trivial games which you indulge in (girls earlier). I know you didn't turn it on at the beginning of the movie because you were already playing it at the beginning. And I have no idea how to comprehend that last part. Did your friend steal your gameboy games, and to give those games back to you, it was an absolute prerequisite that it took place in the city WITH your gameboy? You just finally admitted that you’re immature, thank you.
