Yes, it is so.
I do believe the number one thing we'll all (me and my friends) miss from high school is the spontaneous velociraptor attacks.
Spilled your salad at lunch? Blame the the velociraptor.
Tripped? It's the velociraptor.
Totally lost your train of thought in class? The velociraptor.
I tried compiling a list of other things I'll miss, but I haven't been able to come up with many.
For example, we'll miss:
1- Stupid teacher quotes
2- Beep-beep of bells
3- SRT (playing cards, wasting time, and laughing at the people on the SRT show)
4- Ms. Ryser and her bootlegging incidents.
5- Cool teachers (ie. the Berzins, both of 'em)
6- Lunch buddies (ahoy for lunch at home in college)
7- Senioritis!!! We'll no longer have a legitimate reason to slack off and not care about school!
8- Mixed freshman/senior classes (putting 14-18 year olds in the same classroom = disaster)
9- "Kick-a-freshman" days
10- Cookie wrappers stuffed inside lockers
11- Anything pertaining to the concept of lockers, ie. decorating other people's with embarrassing messages, breaking into them, figuring out who keeps theirs open, decorating your own with spongebob coloring pages, etc.
12- Drunk-driving lectures before prom from overly emotional old ladies who had their moms-dads-brothers-sisters-children-inlaws-soulmates-shipmates-acquaintances-cousins twice removed killed in accidents.
13- Pointless school clubs which proclaim that collecting 20 cans for a food drive counts as "doing good work"
14- Robert!
15- The train game
16- People who claim to be "political environmental activists" and yet can't figure out a solution to the lunch tray problem (I should do a separate post on this because seriously: if I am more concerned about your environment than you are (oh you who tell us to "love your Mother earth") then you know something is wrong)
17- People who don't know how to support their opinions (and are thus really entertaining to have debates with)
18- Seeing the special ed kids in the halls every morning and smiling at them just to see how many smiles I can get back
19- Getting free access to research sites/city newspaper
20- Mr. Pizzo (Mr. P if you're reading this right now just know that I'm in B217 and you're welcome to come in for a visit...I know you're watching!!! By the way, I had no printer privileges for over a year thanks to you! Oh yes, and I saw you run into the library door once because your umbrella got caught on the handle. Just thought I'd let you know.)
That's my humble list for now. I'll add more later if I think of something.
Government class is almost over, I have to pretend like I've been doing something productive. An, that's yet another thing I'll miss, because in college you can be unproductive and nobody really cares.
