OVER!!

School is finally over!!! Until next year, when we are hearded through the doors once again and forced to learn uneccessary shit. However, im not going to even think about that for the moment, im not even going to think about my terrible grades that will soon be appearing in the mailbox. I dont have to go to school for a couple of months, and that makes me very happy.

While school will not be in session over the next few months, i still plan to make posts about various occurences with the WRHS staff etc. Along with my daily ramblings about how badly the place blows.

I also intend to start another blog, im not sure what it will be called, but it will hold pieces of my creative writing. Pretty much everything I write is meant to be funny, so i hope it makes you laugh.

Of course, none of this will happen if i am grounded for my bad grades, so this may be the last post you see for a while. SCHOOL'S OUT, FOR THE SUMMER!!!

So close...But yet so far

This Friday, the last day of the school week. This makes me incredibly excited, because school just pisses me right off and it's time for a break. However, the end of this week gets us ever so closer to next week. The worst week of the school year: Final Exam Week.

Nobody likes it, it's hectic, nobody ever knows what is happening, other alternative ideas have been brought up, yet we still have the same old week of final exams. I think that the school year would not at all be complete without this unneccesary weekf tests though. It gives us all a sense of accomplishment before we get the hell out. Even if you Christmas tree all of your exams, you still had to sit in the classroom the entire time, waiting for your ticket out of that hell hole we call winnisquam.

I would like to extend a congratulations to all of the seniors who will be graduating tonight. They have made it through four years that they hated and can't wait to leave, but someday when they are thirty or so years old, they will look back on it as the best years that they ever had. Congratulations once again to the seniors!

Wednesdy Woes

Now that I am done summing up Tuesday, I can move onto today's problems. Ms. Nelson seems to think that it is a fun idea to make our research papers due on Friday. Although mine is already complete, after seeing the grades of my fellow compatriots who passed theirs in early, I am quite worried. I have reason to be worried about my grade in there because I only did half of my project on "The Crucible", which was the stupidest play that I haven't read for school in a long time. Yesterday, our third period english class listened to one overly angered female student go on and on about how she deserved a better grade on her paper because she didnt know what the rubrik was etc. etc., blah, blah, blah. If you are reading this right now and you know that you were this particular student please listen to this: Just because your paper sucked, doesnt mean that we have to listen to you bitch about it.

On top of all this, I left my geometry homework at home, so I didn't receive credit for it. I need to start doing my homework for math class, which is much easier said than done. I can now vision myself, the night before the end of the quarter, finishing all of my make-up work for all of my classes. I know that this will happen becausei t has every time so far this year.

And on top of all of that, I was once again forced to shelve books at the local library for minimum wage. I find this very demeaning, especially becasue I just want to have a normal teenager job. For example: bagging groceries, putting clothes back on the rack at a department store, or waiting tables at a filthy run-down diner. While I am not exactly sure ho whealthy it would be to work at one of these places, it sure as hell would be more fun than working at the library.

Thursday, Thursday....

Yet again, I was forced to shelve books at my dead end job at the local library. Lame-o. However, I had the opportunity to go to Dairy Queen and buy myself a misty float. Grape Misty Floats are heaven. I love them.

I also love the fact that there is an office located at room 228 that gets students set up with internships. I was able to sign up for one myself today, so that is pretty awesome.

Anways... I heard that there was a fight today during fifth period, but rumors havent been confirmed yet. I dont even know who it was that was fighting, I just heard that there was a fight and that it was pretty uneventful. We havent seen a good fight in a long time, not since Ed Hill very succesfully warded off attacks from Steven Straight, who seemed to think that there was some "shit talking" involving Ed. Probably a bad idea for Steve, who nobody likes anyway. Stupid Steve.

There was definetly alot of pictures of Winnisquam students in today's "Winnisquam Echo". Mostly in the sports section, so check it out.

Yet Another Monday

Today was not at all a fun day. But what the hell was i expecting?, it's friggin monday!!! I think the mutual hate for Mondays is much like that for people in our school that go by the name of Tyler Prue. Monday is that bastard child that doesnt quit talking, touching, and screwing around. I hate both Mondays and Tyler Prue.

However, usually Mondays seem to have something eventful occur partway through the day. For example, a heated argument over some random girl from a party over the weekend that two guys seem to have to "discuss" in the lunch room. Today was quite contrary. Nothing fun happened, and the day went on like a usual Thursday.

That could possibly mean that the stars have flipped and Thursday will be more like a monday. That would mean that said heated argument would be even more heated come thursday, or in this case the new monday, and make for an even bigger fight with more food throwing and name calling and face-punching action one would expect from a disney channel movie. Damn Disney Channel Movies.

I believe that class elections were posted today, and those results will be posted as soon as they are found out.

Have a happy rest of Monday, or thursday for that matter

Athletics

The Winnisquam Bears JV baseball team totally demolished the Moultonborough JV team. This is a very good thing for the baseball program, which has been sluimping as of late, but the team is seeing a total lack of motivation. Nobody wants to be there. Even when the team is winning everyone just wants to go home, except for individuals named Jason McDonald that seem to have no life outside of Baseball and Sportscenter.

This leads me to another point. I was listening to the JV coach talk about how jumping on trampolines hurts his back. You know that your age has begun to catch up to you when activities that promote fitness make your body worse. Growing older is not at all something I am especially looking forward to, but I suppose that it has to hapen someday.

To hell with it, maybe I'll die an early death in some type of unnecessary and flambuoyant fashion before I grow old. That wouldnt be so bad.

In other news, I have heard through the gigantic grapevine of rumors that votes will not be counted for the class elections until tuesday. Seriously, what kind of geniouses do we have to hire with our tax money to count a few hundred votes? Come on people.

The Infamous First Post

This is the first of what I hope will be many posts on the daily squamer, a blog created to deal specifically with the daily goings-on of Winnisquam Regional High School and it's many flaws.

As i write this first post, I am sitting, incredibly bored, at the second computer on the left of our media center. I should be in fym class, but Ms. Dutton is sick and I asked the teacher if I could come to the library. Nothing exciting has happened today, so I suppose the only thing we are looking forward to is the announcement of who won for class president, and even most people dont even care about that.

The "lockdown" yesterday proved to be a large disappointment, considering nothing exciting even came of it. I think that it really is beginning to show why we have such low test scores when a student mistakes a telephone worker for a dangerous man. However, we were able to get out of class for about fifteen minutes and it killed some time for all of us, who were more than likely on the verge of falling asleep, and would have, had class continued to go along as planned.

The lunch hour is almost upon us, so i must make my way back down to the bottom floor, where I can devour the less than cooked meals provided for us by SYSCO.

That las comment reminds of a paper I read today in english class, written by an anonyomous student. I have included a quote at the bottom that somewhat reflects the on the intelligence of certain members of the school board.

"they took away the highly conventional snack corner, because they believed that certain students were over-eating the provided confections. Hey, you cant live off of the chicken patties either"
