Do You Skip?

Post by Kiyotie »

Just wondering who here skips school...
Whatever our failings may be, we need not lower our eyes in the presence of Jesus...Jesus comes not for the super-spiritual but for the wobbly and the weak-kneed who know they don't have it all together, and who are not too proud to accept the handout of amazing grace. As we glance up, we are astonished to find the eyes of Jesus open with wonder, deep with understanding, and gentle with compassion.

I've discovered this way to skip school without anyone knowing (by writting a note "from my mom" and getting a pass to get out at the beginning of the day and walking home because I live close to the school) But the thing is, I don't really know why I do it. Usually in the morning I decide I'm going to do it because I'm so tired, but I don't think that's the real reason. I don't know...I guess I just want some risk in my life or something. Like when I'm walking home from doing it I'll just be thinking "why did I do this?" and I can't really find a reason! There's nothing especially great about being home, just NOT being at school...Ack I'm so confused! :shy:

i think everyone goes through that.

maybe you just dont like regular school? if you want you should try talkin to your parents about home studies. try that for a little while then see which one you like best. cause you cant miss alot of school or youll fall way behind.

i dont skip school because they call your house if your absent and i dont skip class because if it shows up you had been there before in the day on the computers you get a referal, unless of course you had a note out or whatever.

No! My mom has to like force me to stay home from school. One time when i was really sick i wanted to go to school and mum was like "If you go to school, you will be grounded for 3 weeks...which means no internet" I tried to complain, but i ended up staying home.

I don't know why you would want to skip.

Honestly I don't think they'll find out. I mean, my school consists of over 2,500 kids. I doubt they'll notice 5 absences on my report card, and I doubt even more that they'll care. And at my school they don't call home unless you're called in sick, but not if you "have a note" to get out early.



And yes, basically I sit home and do nothing but eat and watch TV. I don't know why I do it. I just hate being at school, and I love missing it...

I have never skipped before. Mostly because our town is small and there isn't anywhere to go if you skip. But also because I think that keeping my grades up is important, and I can't keep em up if i'm not there.

I have skipped. But I'm in university. So It doesnt really count. Except you get really behind, really fast. Like, i skipped one day and fell asleep in the class the other, and i missed an entire empire. Which is a verrry bad thing. Also, classes are expensive. It's $14/hour for a class. Thats pretty expensive. I've only missed a few, once because i was REALLY tired, like, i couldnt move, once because i was hungover/drunk (long story),3 becaue i was genuinely sick, and 3 because of business in other areas. I think i'm doing pretty good for not skipping though.



In high school...I never did it. Too big of a risk. In university, its your mark.
Wheee. I'm Hyper-Emo.
