Skipping Class: Oh, No, No, No

They will tell you I'm insane

Skipping Class: Oh, No, No, No

There are two definitions for skipping. The first definition is stepping one foot over another with glee. The second definition is: choosing to not attend class. I am a person that feels guilty if they miss one class. I go to class when I am sick just because I do not want to miss anything and the attendance quiz is the easiest quiz you will ever have to take. People might think I am insane for going to class with a summer cold or a stomach bug, but I just cannot skip. Its impossible for me.

I am a little insane!

Another reason why I do not skip class is because I love school! School is a magical kingdom. I love seeing my cheerful friends and my teachers are the peppiest people you will ever meet. Education is the reason why people are so successful. Even Taylor Swift and Harry Styles enjoyed high school. School might be tough at times and there have been times where I wish I could drop out and become a Disney princess, but I know that school is important and look at all your accomplishments!

Monday Happy Dance!

Going to a private catholic elementary/middle school and high school, can say that I am pretty much sheltered. Being sheltered and knowing that skipping class was not acceptable is why I cannot skip class in my first dress-free school. People have the wrong idea about private school kids. We did not arrive at school in limos or have our own personnel Dorota. We are not from Gossip Girl. We might have come off as spoiled or privileged, but we really were not. Our parents supported us emotionally and financially. So, your opinions are irrelevant.

However, I do love my tiaras!

I have friends who skip classes because their teachers do not take attendance or they choose not to go. Well, I have only skipped two classes in my entire college career. One was for voting and the second was for a family wedding. And I let both of my teachers know before hand. However, I am that student who checks in with her teachers, asks for help, and is basically their favorite student. Teachers love me! Maybe its my good attitude or my hard work ethic. Then again I do come with creative solutions to every problem!

Especially when it comes to food!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
