WTF?!
Today, a student in my class walked up to me during the passing period and said, "Miss Kelsey, I crushed up an Altoid and snorted it during my last class." FML.
Matty has a bachelor's degree in civil engineering and now lives with his parents in Hillbilly Heaven. On the weekends, he breaks in to Miss Kelsey's apartment and steals her wireless internet. He fancies himself a "hippie" because he eats organic foods, ran one triathlon and recycles. Matty spends most of his free time wishing he were of Mexican descent.
Miss Kelsey would rather sleep-in than take a substitute teaching job. She figures as long as she spends less money everyday than she makes, she'll come out ahead. She also spends the afternoon as a volunteer softball coach, which really helps with the bills. Miss Kelsey spends most of her free time wishing she were eating a burrito gigante con queso salsa from El Meson.
Both Matty and Miss Kelsey graduated from college on December 21, 2008 and plan to attend graduate school in August 2009. In the meantime, they are pretty worthless.
The Schools
Due to the lighthearted nature of this blog, it is only appropriate to mask the names of the institutions to protect the innocent. However, we also recognize how important it is for you to know the details about where we are and what sort of setting we're being exposed to each day. Knowing what school we're in will help set the scene for the story.
With that said, here is your guide:
THE PRIVATE SCHOOL -Jr./Sr. private high school -Faith-based in Roman Catholicism -Students wear uniforms -Colors: navy blue & white
THE RURAL SCHOOL -Jr./Sr. public high school, elementary schools -Students stereotyped as hillbillies -Colors: green & yellow
THE CITY SCHOOL -Jr./Sr. public high school, elementary schools -Students stereotyped as nerds -Colors: red &gray
THE OUTSIDE THE COUNTY SCHOOL -Public high school and middle school -Students stereotyped as lower income/druggies -Colors: orange & blue
