LOL actually I didn't. I wound up dropping out. I was in class one day and it was some kind of social something or other and the project was if you could pack ten things to take to a deserted island to survive what would they be. Okay I can do this, this is ninth grade mind you. So we are done and he goes around the room and is calling on people to read from their lists. Some of these girls took their hair dryers I mean seriously, makeup, fingernail polish, can they drink that? Maybe eat some of the makeup. I became furious. I was so mad at the stupidity. I kept thinking I am not them. I don't even want to be seen with them lol. I know, I was/am no prize but still to this day stupid people make me mad. I am talking about people who know better and do anyway or who have a brain but don't use it. Mean people too.

So I left that day and did not go back to high school. Instead I went and took two high school refresher courses and told them I wanted to take my GED but I wanted to use my scores to get my diploma. They said I couldn't, that there was no way I would get enough points on the GED to get the credits I would need to get my diploma. There were just too many. Well I showed them . I place so high in the nation that I got my GED and my high school diploma. Don't think they let you do that now, at least not here.

Well we are down to 6 days and still complaining lol
