Faint Memories

Chapter 1: Getting the gist of it all

You'd think that high school was a great experience because of parties being thrown, being able to drive, and you finally become and adult. Now let me tell you why that's bullshit.

I am completely, and utterly done with school. Either Teachers end up giving up on students bad behavior, or they won't ever give up and pile you with hours of homework. But it's not the kind of homework where you can literally look up on google, or the kind of homework that you procrastinate on doing so that's why it takes forever. Nope. I'm talking about a full out packet made by the teacher about 7 years ago that they use every year. Essays.

Plus those god damn finals that are literally a week of zombies since we die one night from studying, only to revive the next morning. Then there's the obvious thing about getting a boyfriend. Somehow the ugly nerd from middle school becomes a hottie which leads to all the girls swooning over. That's crap too. Andrew Harve is a gamer with a weird mug of a face and he hasn't changed since 5th grade, well except for the baby fat.

Guys are idiots. Which is why I'm only friends with them. It's not like I have an option anyways.

Yes, yes I know. Cry, tear. *wipes invisible tear*.

Now back to the topic of school. I will literally die if I stay in my American History class any longer.

What's the only way to get out? The bathroom obviously, but in which is still kind of a bad option. This is when I explain how we have people doing pot in the bathroom or people having sex in there.

Yeah, no.

The bathrooms just kinda stink and usually the floor is sticky which I have no intention of exactly knowing why. But I might as well bang my head against that wall instead of banging it on the desk.

Ha, I could say I banged in the bathroom and finally get it over with. Oh yeah, about virginities in this school, keeping it is pretty normal and so is loosing it. No one really cares except if you're in that one group of friends who are really out there and play a dirty round of 'Never Have I Ever'.

If the people who play that are drunk, then you my friend are in the luckiest spot for seeing it happen. That shit is funny as hell.

Ok, so bathrooms, check; teachers, check; guys, check; now groups of people.

The school is basically divided into 3 groups.

First there's the basic 1st estate. They're filled with kids who can pull off any outfit, have friendship goals, constantly sleeping over other people's house, partying. They carry around only headphones and their charger in their bookbag, and wearing the latest Jordan's because why not. Usually they're nice to you if you are to them. One dirty look can basically send their group of friends in a riot.

By riot I mean stalking social media and an occasional comment thrown at the person who gave the dirty look.

Yep, we're all scared of them.

Now the second estate. They consist of the people who are friends of the 1st estate and friends with the 3rd. They're cool and stuff, but that's when most of the assholes come in. Since they're friends with the 1st estate they think they're all that and can talk about everyone else. Which is why they get hated on.

Get my drift?

Now the 3rd estate is divided into another three parts. Confusing but just go along with it.

First, there's the ones who are chill and just let stuff happen. They just concentrate on their group of friends, get decent grades. Nerds somehow fit into that, I don't even question it anymore.

Then there's the ones who try too hard. Swag fags and end up rapping songs from like 4 years ago. They're the wanna be's and end up doing the drugs.

Finally, the foreign exchange students. They struggle with the English language we any other student would, but they just chill around. No one has a problem with them its just that we don't really understand them.

Now that we got the social groups done, we get to the beef of it all.

Driving. IT SUCKS MAN. You have to get up, and physically drive. Yeah I might sound spoiled and shit but no it's not fun when you have to make sure it's got gas, anti-freeze for the winter, ac in the summer, motor oil, and all the jizz that wastes money.

Then when you're the one that drives before your friends, they all want you to pick you up. Like chill, I can barely get to school by myself, now I gotta pick all you up.

Gah, it gets stressful sometimes. Especially when you have a group of assholes in your classes and come back from winter break at first period.

This is when we get back from good old holidays and get picked up by a crane, and dropped down into a hell.

Gotta love school.
