So Long Sweet Summer

Starr Polish · 08-20-2002, 02:40 PM

...I hate the winter, in Lexington...
Well, actually, I've never been to Lexington, let alone in the winter.

School starts tomorrow. Good bye long days of doing nothing but sleeping. Hello homework, and a social life! I'm actually looking forward to school starting, how about you?

(Cool points if you know who sang the song I made references to)

School in August? Ick.

Well I'm sort of in school... I have marching band camp this week and part of next, but school doesn't start until September.

Khadrane · 08-20-2002, 03:39 PM

This is my last week of summer. How I dread August 26.

My school started yesterday and I hate all of my professors, but life goes on I guess.

No idea about the song though.

***Khamûl*** · 08-20-2002, 07:11 PM

Enjoy it while it lasts. My summer has been gone since August 7. I've been in school almost two weeks. If we would have had a band director, my summer would have ended the last of July/the beginning of August. The bright side is that we get out of school at the end of May.

Lizra · 08-20-2002, 07:14 PM

Well, I'm happy! (sorry

)

Starr Polish · 08-20-2002, 07:19 PM

Hey, I'm glad to be going back too! Well, at least for a little while.

Still no guesses about the song? Hmm...

Menelvagor · 08-20-2002, 08:26 PM

Hey, Khamul, our schools started on the same day! (yes, I know, I'm very easily amused

) I hate my school, I wish it were still summer, or better yet Christmas Break Baby!

Rána Eressëa · 08-20-2002, 08:39 PM

School started for me on the 12th - and I thought it as the 19th.

Oh well. I'm already back in the habit of homework.

Liviaine · 08-20-2002, 08:51 PM

I don't start until after Labor Day.

***gdl96*** · 08-20-2002, 09:58 PM

How I dread September 4.

It's weird cause starting school in September is the norm in NJ, but not many other places. My cousins in NCarolina start this week (although the public schools started the week before)

What song is this? Actually it has no name, so just say the movie it's from:

Back to school, Back to school
To prove to dad that I'm not a fool
I've got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight
I hope I don't get in a fight
Back to school...

markedel · 08-20-2002, 10:17 PM

I move away in 13 days to University. How scary is that!

Shadowfax · 08-21-2002, 01:34 AM

Wow! So many of you have already started school! I start grade 11 on September 4, and I am looking forward to it, but I'm more nervous than usual because I know I will have a LARGER course load this year than ever before!

Faramir · 08-21-2002, 10:34 AM

I started school in August. I was sad.

Only two months of Summer??? Not fair. I actually have a nice, organized(

), teacher. Not that bad...

As far as school goes...

sun-star · 08-21-2002, 01:13 PM

School doesn't start for me for two weeks, but I get my exam results tomorrow, so I'm not really enjoying it

eowyn144 · 08-21-2002, 02:06 PM

well i'm not entirely sure when we go back to school. our teachers sent home a letter saying we go back on Wednesday the 5th september. i'll let you figure that one out.....

Renille · 08-21-2002, 09:25 PM

I start on Sept. 3rd. Which makes me mad because everyone else I know are starting tomorrow or Friday. WI just made a new law...no schools can start in this state until after Labor Day. HORRIBLE tourism...we hates it forever!

I wish my school started early, could you tell? I'd rather put the extra days at the beginning when I'm fresh from summer rather than having it dragging out into the never-ending days of mid-June.

Rána Eressëa · 08-21-2002, 09:39 PM

I'm a sophomore now, woo-hoo! And in . . . *counts mentally* . . . 21 days I'll be sixteen! Yay!

Starr Polish · 08-23-2002, 12:03 AM

AP classes are evil...EVIL!

I have a test on Tuesday in AP Bio. Actually, I'm one of the few in the class that halfway understood some of what the teacher was saying...::breaths deeply::
