Truth/Lies
I think that little lies don't really matter as long as the lie is to someone that is not very emotionally close to you. I can't stand when someone close to me lies about something serious. It doesn't bother me when someone lies about something important when they don't mean a lot to me. If that makes any sense at all.
Totem
I couldn't think of anything that represented me so I took a silly online quiz that told me I was like a crow... I thought that was weird. But this is what it said:
"You are the Crow. You are able to discover your own character and help others find themselves as well. You are very creative in the field you are in and tend to be the intelligent one of the bunch."
Nice nice.
Pep Assemblies
My freshman year I was all for school spirit. I would look forward to pep assemblies and getting out of class early. This year I have seemed to lose all my school spirit. Currently, Mr. Carvalho is patrolled outside in one of the parking lots before every assembly to hunt down kids trying to get out of school early. I see him in his cool shades with a walkie-talkie and notepad. Probably writing down license plates or kids' names that he recognizes so they can later be faulted for their dirty deeds. I see classmates desperately speeding off school grounds just because they'd rather not tolerate people screaming at the top of their lungs for something they don't quite care for. Personally I don't think pep assemblies should be required. But that's just my opinion.

Lies: seems kind of cold that you only feel it necessary to do the right thing with people who mean something to you. They should come first, of course, but if it is better to tell them the truth -- do other people really not matter only because you are not personally connected to them?
ReplyDeleteTotem: I like the description, but how the !@#$ does that relate to crows?
Pep: Why should people be allowed to leave the pep assemblies? What's wrong with going to them? If we let students go just because they didn't want to be here, there would be no school. Maybe that would be better? If not, what's the difference between pep assemblies and anything else the school asks of its students that may not directly apply to one's career path -- like, say, marching band? Or sports? Or art? Should we require attendance in those pastimes? So why not pep assemblies?
