Field Trip

I have noticed an inflation in the number of field trips being taken lately. There was on today to some restaurant in the southern part of the state. The Economics classes went, but nobody else was invited. Lame. I remember last year, our earth science class was supposed to go to Boston and go to the iMax theatre and the aquarium. We never got to go because apparently there was no money for field trips. Im not sure how all of a sudden there is extra money. The school is paying the teachers way more than they did last year, We are getting a new principal and vice-principal next year, and those aren't cheap. hmmmm....

This has lead me to believe that the Winnisquam Regional School District is involved with the mafia. In exchange for a few "favors" (drug sales), the mafie could supply us with the money needed. And what better place to run a mob operation than that of a high school, which is located in a town where 25% of the population is addicted to meth? There are plenty of customers, plus, they work hand in hand with the police force, so this way the mob gets ahold of a few crooked cops to help pave the way to a new territory.

However, it wouldnt exactly be considered "new" territory. It is widely known that since the mid-seventies the weirs has been a popular summer getaway for mobsters from the Boston-New York area. Sometime during the late eighties there was a mob hit in Laconia, so this is by no means new territory.

I rest my case. Due to lots of new money, and having an excellent environment for their business, I believe that the mafia has in fact taken over the minds of the school board. It is very possible that they have infected superintedant Tammy Davis, but I think that some of her bogus ideas have come from a very rare disease only found in the amazon.....

Boredom

Today was wednesday the thirtieth. There is something special that happened today, can you guess it? That's right, you can't, because nothing ever happens at that godforsaken place we call a high school, or the local library, where I deal with the day to day problems that a local library would go through, which also consists of nothing. My job is boring, my classes are boring, and even my weekends are boring sometimes. But what is boredom? Is it the act of having nothing to do, or does it have to do with things being there to be done but not coming of interest for the bored individual at hand? Or it could just be that one does not have the will to make something interesting, which goes back to sheer laziness. I think that it is mostly laziness, but Im telling you, it takes a great deal of effort to make an entire Algebra 2 class exciting. As hard as I try, I only get these little bits of time where the class necomes non-boring. Lame.

Anyways, Winnisquam seems to cooking up quite alot of boredom lately, and that is no good. That means that teachers are not making class interesting, and therefore not at all productive, except for nerds and geeks, and this leads to lower test scores which eventually lead to losing creditation. Boredom also leads kids to do stupid things just to kill time, in my case that consists of filling out numerous myspace surveys, lame, i know. But in many cases it leads kids to do things like graffitiing the walls of the local elementary school, Vandalizing cars in the school parking lot, or throwing apples at the wall, which I actually did once, and the only good thing that came out of that was that i now have a claim to fame in that i was the first one to ever be caught by the new camera system. I ended up spending an hour with the janitors after school helping to clean up the english wing. I didnt get to attend the pep rally, but the time was spent in Ms. Nelson's class watching "Pimp My Ride". So much better than losing your voice to the cheering competition.

SO in conclusion, i have concluded, that my concluded conclusion has come to the conclusion that the conclusion is that nothing is happening at Winnisquam, but iI can smell something coming real soon...

Dont Ask

The band "The Breathing Method", formerly "The Scarlet Rush", formerly "Say This Sooner", consisting of former squamers Josh Lacroix and Derek Brewer, and current squamer Dan Holway, are not playing a show with Saves The Day. Please dont ask Dan if they are, eighty million people already asked him, and that's annoying.

Tuesday Mornings

This morning was extra crappy because I woke up sick. My head hurts, my throat is scratchy, my shoulder is in pain, i stubbed my toe, and I have a cronic cough that hurts my entire body. And yet, I still ended up in school this morning. However, my mother was kind enough to pick me up after English class, which is why I have found the time to write about the extended weekend.

Saturday was host to a show at the Margate, with our great friends Quick Decision headlining the show. There was another great band there from Belmont called Tuesday Mornings, how ironic. The show was great, but lasted very late into the night, with the final act not finishing up until 11:30.

Sunday night hosted Akon and Ciara at the Meadowbrook/US Cellular Pavillion. I was not planning on goin to this, considering I despise both Akon and Ciara, but my cousin offered me free tickets under the pavillion, so i couldn't argue. I ended up standing right in front of the stage and came very close to receiving the honor of touching Akon. Big Whoop.

I hope that everyone has enjoyed their long weekend, and i hope that you are all ready to get through these last few weeks of school. Finals suck, but as soon as you finish those it's home free.

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.

Tuesday and Wednesday Have Officially Merged

In last night's laziness, I found myself watching television until almost ten 'o' clock, and then getting into the shower. After taking an elongated shower, I thought to myself, "I should probably go and write about today's happenings on the blog". Of course, I didnt end up doing that because there was no blog for anyone to read yesterday. I simply decided that it was bedtime and I soon fell asleep while listening to yet another brilliant episode of loveline.

So, therefore, I have officailly decided to write about yesterday today. I woke up much later than usual because my four dollar alarm clock decided to be lame and not go off, therefore I was forced to be woken up by a stiff jabbing motion to the spine by my less-than-impressed father. Anyways, I missed the bus and that kind of screwed up my morning. The day at Winnisquam went by rather uneventfully, with our little friend, Tyler Prue, not showing up. He is an embarrasment to his family, the town of Tilton, and The Winnisquam Schoold District. Nobody likes him already, and stealing the most favored radio host in the area's cell phone is not going to help his ego.

I had to serve my detention after school with Ms. Keane, who is a nice person at heart, but seems to be having a hard time acting as a normal human being. Her moods swing back and forth like that of a woman going through menopause....

Anyway, I only had to stay for about fifteen minutes, and then went to my grandmother's house to mow her lawn. Later, I ate some of the finest pizza in the land at G.G's pizzeria and deli, located next to Cumberland Farms. It's good stuff.

Wow.

I just read a blog called Everest 2007, and it is about the journey that these people have been taking to the top of Mt. Everest. Congratulations to them, and definite props.
