If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

"Ignorance is a plague."

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.
I wish ignorance was a plague.

Yep, every once in a while.

Why do people have security guards/cops at their schools?

There was one at my high school, and at least one or two at my college. Maybe more.

Which is a bit strange, seeing as I don't really recall violence and crime in my city for however long I've lived here.

Security, I guess.

Honestly I love school so its easy for me to not miss class lol. And I'm OCD about having all my notes and doing all my assignments and everything. I don't even leave early ever.

No because I am responsible.

Why skip? That only makes it harder on you when you get back with the make-up work/tests

It's hard to get away with wagging at my school very often because the senior staff are complete uptight asses.

Yes because I just couldn't stomach some of those awful subjects, mainly English Literature. That was in sixth form.

If I hadn't been scared to, I would've tried to skip RE and Citizenship every single week earlier on in school.

Once or twice, but never for a whole day. I skipped a period to hang out with a girl I really liked but that was the only motivation.

I couldn't skip single classes in HS. If I was marked attendant for the day but absent in one of my classes, I would have been kicked out of the class. Zero tolerance on skipping. I did fake being sick very often and just called the school saying I wouldn't make it, and then I'd go off and do whatever that day.

In college, I skip class all the time. Often because there's other stuff I really need to do, but occasionally I just don't feel like attending. vov

I'm an Anarchist. I don't need a government to be a good person, but I'm glad it's here because some of you clearly do.

During the early part of the second trimester of senior year I was in the process of switching schools because I absolutely detested the one I was in, and no matter how late in the game, I was ecstatic about leaving.

I ditched my first period for a month, daily. I lived alone at the time, so my parents didn't even know. I left that school with a one point something GPA and graduated from the other with a three point five as the model student in multiple classes.

Public school is garbage.

I live in Australia and there are trees everywhere. So anytime we want to skip it's just a hop, skip and a jump.

  • 01.08.2013 1:13 AM PDT

Allons-y!

Skipped? No.

Asked my parents to stay home? Yes.

Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!

Nope, I never skipped once.

As a matter of fact, I had perfect attendance through all 4 years of high school.

But one time in class with my favourite teacher, he got one of the students to call his friend who was skipping, then he took the phone and started talking to the kid, twas' was utterly hilarious!
