Wow those classes really blow… I’m just kidding, hey, you got an Honors class!

Make sure you take as many computer classes as you can in High School to make up for these.

Yeah, school definately blows. I go back on September 2nd, thank god, so I have another week or two left before hell begins…Then it’s fun time!!! I’m taking 4 computer classes and a study hall, so I get to work on web design and everything for half a day, and then the other classes are easy. I’d take some internet language courses if the guy who teaches them didn’t suck. I had him last year…I’m not going to go into details. Too idiotic to mention.
