Sounds like my Catholic high school, except that's how it is from the first day of freshman year to last day of senior year. Straight A's or else you gotta take exams (not to mention get grounded...parents think I don't apply myself when I get a B :rolleyes: ). Rise and freakin' shine at 5:00. I don't even get bus service, so I gotta hop in the car w/ my mother and be driven a half hour before the sun rises. I gotta deal with the uniform skirt and all that other wonderful things that the clergy think my classmates should wear.

I thought I had all 60 of my community service hours (a Catholic virtue/requirement for graduation) done this summer. They then decided to jack it up an addition 10 just to spite us :mad:. They also changed the policies so that if any of the kids have more than five absences, they lose exemption from exams, even if they have straight A's :mad:. I have a seven-and-a-half hour school day, too, on top of all of this other stuff.

I know where you're coming from. I'm in same boat as you are..sophomore right? At any rate, if I can make it, you can.

Can't wait til senior year; once you're accepted to a college, you can blow the last marking period or two off. :D :D.

Peace and Rock 'n' Roll

--but the payoffs are immense. In college, social opportunities abound ...and, well, let's just say there's plenty to do after hours if you're creative and have a lass who's willing. Plus there's the college job--get into doing something you like, e.g. writing for the campus paper or a nice job in the library, and you can gain valuable experience for after graduation....
