What was the last “classic” that a mean old English teacher made oyu read?
*Inherit the wind *
How do you grade what your parents “know” about life issues (drugs, sex, education, money, relationships, etc.)?
I think my mom has a pretty good grip of what I do and don’t do, (I don’t really do anything bad so not much to tell,) but I know there are some thing she has no idea about
Would it kill you to turn the music down?
I really don’t listen to my music loud, but the guy I ride with in the morning wired his car just to listen for loud music. In my school, I think it just is a status thing. Loud car=cool.
Do you ever worry that your school might become the next Columbine?
Constantly. I school has the exact same problems, the taunting, special treatmeant of the jocks, no punishments for verbal assault, extreme cliques. Plus, I am one of the “outsiders” and the first thing I thought after I heard all the details about Columbine (in 7th grade) was "I am not suprised. Mabye this will get through their heads. Sad thing though, the reaction in middle school was “Big deal. It didn’t happen here.”
Do teenagers still start smoking “to be cool?”
Alot of my friends smoke (I never can, my mom can smell anything on my clothes) and I think thet to it just to fit in, and also they smoke because they are depressed and stressed.
Do you hate your parents?
Right not, I am in a big “fight of wills” with my dad, he calls me too liberal a thinker, and liberals will be the downfall of us all, and I say he is a anal-retentive jerk who needs to realize sometimes the enviroment is almost as important as the oil under it. But, no, I don’t hate them.
The clothes deal.
- The clothes are rebellion in my view. I go to school in one of the richest parts in my state. Most of the parents are uber-conservative. Kids like to tick parents of in little ways. Clothes is one of the. So is hair. So they dress in baggy clothes and dye their hair. It almost seems my school is all blonde somedays.*
