Basically, we all just ended up sitting in the corner with the lights off and talking about random stuff, since the lockdown took about an hour out of class. Someone asked "If there are twins that aren't born yet- can one of them eat the other one?"

Sad thing is they were serious.

Yeah, the other twin can.

This is what it's like where I live. This is how I ended up transfering to my new school.

My family moved into a rental home that was still in my hometown. I spent a year going to the Junior High School there and was expected to go to the High School.

As it turns out, the landlord switched his property taxes to another town.

The rules here state that if you control all payments going to your children's school, you get to pick the school. Since my parents did not control the Property Taxes, I had to go to the school where they were being spent, even though my parents were paying the other stuff (Tuition, Books, Yearbook, etc.).

I don't know how it's at where DB lives. Like Mid said, it be kinda pointless since he can graduate after Christmas.

That's true to some extent. It depends on where you live, but if there're multiple schools in the same area, or if there're private/catholic/something else schools, you can choose which one to attend. But it's usually set in stone.

Or you could be home schooled.

Actually, you can. You just have to fill out alot of paperwork. When I was about to go into elementary school, my parents didn't like the school in the town (It was a small town with a crappy school), so I went to the school in Tyler which was an hour away. Same thing in Middle school, technically we lived in Denver, but my mom wanted me to go to one in Littleton, and I wound up going there.

As long as you don't notify the school of your address change there is no way for them to know that you're not supposed to be going there - I stayed in the same school system while moving into two different districts over the space of two years because they were not notified of our address changes.

Eventually we moved back into the district since my parents saw I was dead set on staying in the district - moving to a different state in middle school sucked way too much for me to want to do it again.

They actually cared about your opinion? I was in three districts in middle school (1 in Texas, 2 in Colorado) and moved to California in my freshman year (from Colorado). Lucky you.

Or you could do that, yeah. Kinda forgot about the paperwork dealie.

Actually, my school is being stupid, so I don't know if I'll be able to graduate after chirstmas anymore. For sure though I'll only have to go to school for a half a day, and half of that time I'll be on the computer.

And yeah, I can't really switch schools. I had a choice to go to a public or private lutheran school (I chose the public one). But yeah, IF I would switch now, I wouldn't be able to get enough credits in the bible study area in the one semester I'd be there. But yeah, I can't chose what public school I want to go to unless I get a fake adress or something, and that would just be stupid to do at this point.

The paperwork way... Thats too much work, and if I switch now, I may not have the required credits at the new school.

Vodka and **** happens here too. I knew a guy that mixed some scotch with his diet coke. I mean, it tasted like total ****, so I don't think it would have even been worth it.

Some guy ran around in my school pouring vodka on random people's heads. At leats thats what it looked like from my view.

Either way, there were vodka puddles around my locker that smelled like crap.

Might I suggest that it wasn't Vodka then?

Yesturday, we had another bomb threat... They found it at a little after 5 PM.
