UGHHHHH!

I hate pep assemblies!!! They are noisy and the only thing that they accomplish is to get you out of your classes for about 5 minutes each. I wouldn't say that I have no school spirit though. I wear orange to represent the sophmores and I wear black and yellow on school colors day. But screaming for the people representing my class to win the activity that is being played on the gym floor is not how I show my school spirit. I show it by working hard so that when I go to a xc or track meet, I can compete against the other teams instead of just running behind them. (I'd just like to point out that even though I do cross country and I run track, I DO NOT DO sports and I can't catch a ball!) and I show it by playing pep tunes at the football games with the band. I think it's great that we have pep assemblies so that people who want to show spirit by going can go but I think that they should not be mandatory and you should be able to leave early from school with out getting in trouble!
