High School Pet Peeves

I really love high school. I do. I mean, I like being social, seeing my friends, and I say, with much hesitation, I kinda dig learning. With the exception of a few subjects. But sometimes....grrrRgRRRRGRRRRRRR. People or things make me upset. Here's a list of the things that make me want to punch small furry animals.

1. People who walk too slow in the hallways:
Seriously, I KNOW we have 10 minutes to get to class, but if there's 2 minutes left and I have to get across the school, because my last class got out late, the last thing I need is rows upon rows of people who are moving at a snail's pace because they can't stand to be far away from each other. SERIOUSLY. My granny could out-stroll you.

2.Awkward Hall Lovers:
This term was coined by my dear friend Greta. In short, these are the couples who cling to each other in the halls during passing periods and sit there fondling each other, and you have to avoid them while trying to not get some sort of sexually transmitted disease.

3. The lunches:
Sometimes I go off campus for lunch, but seeing as I have no car and no license, I am usually stuck eating some gross variety of pre-frozen greasy unidentifiable slop. One that would make prisoners quiver in their booties. Y-U-C-K

4. Trying to get my schedule changed:
If you have a class you don't want or shouldn't be taking, good luck finding a replacement there, brother. Counseling? not that helpful. Usually they tell you that everything is full and attempt to stick you in some sort of aiding position, which my mother considers "a useless waste of brain power" haha. oh, mom.

5. Freshmen:
This is a pretty standard one at my school. Mostly they don't respect ANY of the other grades, and feel they need to break the stereotype by being even more irritating. They just get in the way. I cannot count how many times I've heard freshmen girls SQUEALING at the top of their lungs about how they just got their permit and "oh-mah-gawsh driver's ed sucks so bad" and whatnot.

shut. up.

What's worse is when they cut in the lunch line. You THOUGHT you were the tenth person in line, but then twenty minutes goes by and you realize a huge bubble of freshman accumulated towards the beginning and now your the one who gets the last cold slice of questionable pizza. murder me.

So if you are offended by anything in this list, sorry, but that's the way it goes and you have to suck it up. Feel free to punch the closest standing human being out of frustration. that's my gift to you.
