Could you be a little more specific? I posted a bunch to the "Cute Pictures" thread yesterday; maybe it's in there.

I don't know, the day before breaks always was kind of a fun school day for me. Teachers kind of didn't care, many classes didn't have work and were "parties" and it was kinda nice to see everyone and wish them a happy holidays.
Well I did all my gift exchanging yesterday, and the whole idea of nothing important at school seems to me a great reason *not* to show up... I'd rather waste my time elsewhere.

Actually, my mom was cool with it... she just walked into my room last night and said "What reason should I give the school as to why you're absent?" I replied "I don't really care; just make something up", and that was the end of that.

  • Do whatever the hell you please.
Whatever you do, enjoy being way, way cooler than I was at your age.
Actually, I was planning to go to the Blue Frog Coffeehouse with my friend Rick (a fellow HS senior and Mac user) later today for some communal wifi leaching and latte sipping before the party; there's almost always live music there in the afternoons (some good, some not so good)... I'll see when I get there.

I'm thinking beforehand, I'll ride my bike up to ye olde high school just after classes get out, to hang out for a few minutes and wish everyone a great break.

Oh, and I forgot to mention: my mom is a substitute teacher at my high school. It's impossible for me to skip without her finding out.

You ask me for a hamburger.
