It's been a while. If it was up to me, it wouldn't be months before I updated because of my oh-so-hectic social life. It's not up to me. My oh-so-hectic social isn't so hectic as it used to be. It's barely there nowadays. And I hate that. Almost as much as I hate school. Almost as much as I hate this goddamn town.
So how's school? It's the same education on the same topics as last year, but instead of learning about I'm relearning it with 678 other kids, who didn't learn it because public education sucks. And I feel bad for them, I really do. It's just as unfair to them as it is for me. At first everyone stuck with the kids they knew. Gradually they've begun to spread out. Not good enough to be hangout on weekend friends, but lunch buddies.
I miss my old life in so many ways. Though, I wouldn't go back to that school. I've moved on. I accepted that everything would be different from now on, and I'm glad all 2,500 of us agree- we hate this crumbling school.
I hate the education system in this county. Not just the public, the private too, but I'll talk about that in a minute. I hate that I'm doing everything I did last year. I am so mad at this other public school too. I wanted to use school choice and tranfser. "There is no room. No waiting list." They told me in September. Liars. A girl from Maine just transfered there. And I hate the private education system because it isn't any fairer. There is no amount of scholarships I could win to be able to attend one.
I wonder far too often what it would be like if I just stuck with going to another school. I wonder if I we'd still be besties, and if I would have never broken my tailbone.
Whatever what's done is done.
The end.
