Thread: Skipping School (Is Cool?)

    No, I never. You see, when you choose subjects, you are supposed to choose subjects you like. I like my subjects, so I go to them all. Apart from English. But I would never skip it, that's just being dishonest in my opinion.

    I skipped school way too little, honestly. I could've gotten away with skipping twice as much as I did. In Norway you have to go to school for like 10 years, so I could totally not care about the school those 10 first years, then after that I would have to be in school 80% of the time for the next 3 years. Being gone 20% of the time is a lot. I could've had a wife and two kids by now.

    Nope. I have never done it in my life. Never done it. My principal is so annoying! If he knew I was skipping class he would actually go to my house to see if im sick. Im not even kidding. Wish I was though

    i'm giving up,

We couldn't use Cameron's car because Rooney wouldn't believe for a second that her dad drove a piece of crap like that.

    Anyway, we picker her up and drove to Downtown Chicago, ate at a fancy restaraunt under the guise of Abe Frohman and company, caught a ball game, saw a parade, etc. When it was time to go home we picked the car up at the parking garage and omg! THe attendant had taken it for a joy ride! How dare he!

    We brought it back to Cameron's house, where we tried to set the mileage back by putting it on props and driving in reverse for a while unfortunatly that didn't work, and the car went out of control and crashed out the window and fell two stories down into the forest. But it was okay. Cameron realized that this was the time to finally stand up to his father. He became a bigger man that day. And I think we all grew up a little bit.


    I've been thinking about making a movie about that day but I can't think fo a good title.

    I skip occassionally. A lot of times my Economics teacher will just tell us not to come to class. It's not really a big deal - I've got 8 unexcused absences to use.

    Yeah my school does the same thing. And it does it when you're teacher, somehow, forgets to mark that you're there. I got in loads of trouble one time because of that, when I was actually IN class.

    I've never skipped, though. I'd have nowhere to go. My school is over an hour's walk from my house and I can't drive. And I can't convince my parents that I'm "sick" all that often.

    I've laid out plenty of days this year, though not as many as I'd like to simply because we have a limit of 8 absences per semester. Honestly, I could go to school one day a week and probably still pass all my classes. My Senior year is such a breeze. But I've never skipped without my parents knowing about it. They don't really care, as long as I keep my grades up, which I've never had a problem doing.

    I must say that ditching a class is just as easy as skipping school. You just have to be REALLY convincing.

    We had to run a mile today in Physical Education and after 14 laps (usually we must run 25) I was getting a leg cramp like no tomorrow but I couldn't tell my gym teacher cuz he'd just make me run. So somehow, I went up to him and asked him if I could go to the bathroom and acted like I was about to puke. Somehow I manage to start crying and tearing up when my partner from gym ran after me in the locker room...I was bawling. I don't even know how I got myself to do that! ..I just wanted to get out -.-.

    I never used to skip school until about... ohh... this semester actually. Well okay, last semester I started skipping school on occasion, but this semester... I don't think a week has gone by where I haven't skipped a class or two. But, admittedly, I only skip the huge lecture hall classes where they can't tell if you're gone or not

    It's not really hurting me much (I can do the reading and be just as informed as I would be if I'd gone to lecture) and it gives me more chances to play Nintendo. *coughs*

    When the next school year starts and they ask for your parents work number tell them that your parents can't be gotten ahold of at work. Then when you skip unplug the answering machine. The school has no way to get ahold of your parents. Only you and them know. I thought of that right before my Senior year and it works wonderfully.

    I skipped school occasionally in high school.

    I'll also somewhat more often skip classes in college, but only unimportant ones that don't matter (say, we're watching a movie or just talking about the reading or something).

    I skip mostly because I feel like crap or I'm tired. Or, in the case of my Liberal Propaganda 101 class, I just can't handle anymore stupid that day.
