Well, its official. I start school next Thursday. I don't know why its Thursday...they did this last year too. Strange, but as I was a lowly freshman last year I view it as 'practice classes'. You get to practice getting to all your classes on time.

Sooo....I get to go to the same school as I did last year. You might think that is a given, but I moved out of the district last April. The school near where I live doesn't have the best reputation, and the charter school still has me on a waiting list (I don't even want to go there though....I would miss my old school too much). So, my aunt said 'Alright fine. You can go back.' and I was all 'Yayyy!!!!'. Unfortunately it was NOT that simple. Here's the story:

We went to the school to tell them that I had moved. They were all "Its ok, she was enrolled here last year. She can just come back. Be here Wednesday for registration" and that was it. We come back Wendesday, and there's a fairly long line. My friends were a few people ahead of me so I just kinda skipped on over to them. We talked until it was my turn to go in. I got to the little desk thing and I'm all set to get my picture taken for my ID when...BAM!

"You live out of the district?"
"Yes"
"You need your permit renewed"
"I don't have a permit"
"Why not?"
"I lived just down the street last year"
"Well now you need a permit"
"They said I didn't need one"
"Well you do"

So we go ALL the way back to my 'home' school to get the paper stuffs. The guy there says that the school I was going to was supposed to give me the paper, and they were both supposed to sign it. So we call the other school and blah blah blah.

The next day, turns out the schools did it differently, so we used the paper from the home school. Then we went BACK to my school, tried to get it all sorted.

Now they say we have to send the paper to the school district so they can give me an OFFICIAL permit. Fun. But wait! There's more.

This was what was on my schedule: English Honors 2, Biology Honors, Spanish 2, Geometry, World History, and Dsn&Visual Com. DSN&VISUAL COM?! What the heck is that? Fashion design. Why? No clue. I had signed up for an Algebra 2 class and they replaced it with friggen fashion design? How does that work? So I switched it for PE.

You don't even want me to start on my rant about my Marine Science teacher and my Spanish 1 teacher from last year. That would be a long one.

Bottom line: the school administration, and many adults in general, are STUPID.

Eff this. I'm going to Pigfarts. (Five bajillion points if you know where thats from. If not...GO. WATCH. A VERY POTTER MUSICAL. ON. YOUTUBE. NOW. And buy me a rocket ship =))

Edit: Oh yeah...and my aunt accidently wrote 100 on the race part of this one card thingy we had to fill out...apparently she thinks I'm an American Indian or Alaskan Native (I am neither of those things)
