Heh, ever have a crazy morning? I woke up today finding out i had no power. I live really close to my school so i was hoping they would be closed. While entering the parking lot there was 3 fire trucks and a rescue squad. They said to each car...that your only allowed to pick people up you cannot come in the parking lot.. there is a electric fire and smoke in the hallways due to a transformer blow out. Heh, I was hoping no school for the outage, and they were the cause of the outage...how weird... Well every other school has to still go to school too...hehe... so my friends are in school. Well i better hurry and post it...the electricity is flickering on and off all day!

According to your post time it was 5:02 :P

Anyway, whenever we had heating problems and power cuts the year 10 and 11's had to go in much like you school. I lvoed that up until of course i go into those last years...but then it didnt matter because i was leaving soon. I remember all th elittle kids ocing in the next day taunting us about school, but of course we were about to start the exams so we left a few months later...and they are still there :D
 
Last year we got a day off because they found a handgranade from WW2 in the basement...
I'm not joking and therefore it's not spam!

I think I speak for everyone Pauly, when I say:

Congratulations, you lucky bastard!

But who am I to talk, I was home sick today... ;)
And yup, that was Family Guy indeed.. And they're going to start making it again! wohoo!
 
I go to school at 7:30 and get out at 2:15, usually home by 2:35. it's sweet..we did have out becuse of a sink hole on interstate 70 once lol
 
theres a school near me that has such crap kids and teachers it has to close at lunchtime on a friday everyday to give the staff stress release. i think its gonna close soon, theyve had 4 new heads in 1 year... theyre the crud bucket of my society
 
Well, last night the brief storm that rolled over where I live knocked out our power for about six hours. What sucks about a blackout is the sheer boredom. Living out in the woods, in the night, during a blackout, is not entertaining.

For a while my mother, sister, and myself just kinda stared at each other in the candlelight, in between periods of reminiscing about the past. Then I listened to an old battery radio I had found for a while. Then I went to sleep because I had run out of things to think about.

Fun times......
 
when we have blackouts at my school, we stay in class and keep working. and when you try to go to your locker teachers yell at you, "What are you doing at your lockers!!! Get to class!!!"

last week we had a bomb threat but we just went outside for 10 minutes. actually we stayed in class for 2-5 minutes since we always think the fire alarms are fake since they go off all the time and are accompanied by weird loud noises from the air conditioner... and then we stood outside. so the teachers just tell us to stay in class since it wasn't a planned fire drill, therefore it must be fake... so basically if there's a real fire we'll all be sitting in class for a few minutes waiting.....

the only time i remember having school canceled was in 8th grade when there was a really bad storm--the sky was totally dark and kinda green-ish looking. of course, just my luck, my mom had already taken me to school.......... but it was kinda fun. we just sat in the science class at the end of the hall that had wolfenstein on the computers... and watched movies, and then called our parents to pick us up.
