Day 142: I Was Never Taught That Knowledge.

I am no tone to get embarrassed. Ever. However, when I wake up find videos such as this on the internet, I can not helped but be ashamed of my education. Here are some truths:

1. This is my high school. I graduated with a 3.95 after sitting in those same lunch seats and standing under that same dome.

2. Three years after my graduation, this is what has replaced my classmates and myself.

3. They go to school literally 10 minutes from the state capital building.

4. They live three hours to the US/Canadian border.

5. I know for a fact that there is one good History teacher who is the reason I got a high score on my AP US History test.

6. This is a poor representation of the education excellence that has and hopefully still does walk around this building.

7. Two students that graduated from the school last year got into MIT.

8. Courtney Love went to high school here... Oh wait, there it is...

I made it through the last five days of hell on-top! Now let's celebrate by sleeping. 12 hour rehearsal tomorrow for the win.

The Friday ensemble included the dress being worn as a long skirt (again), with the Frye boots (again...), blue wolf shirt I bought in Montana, Target light-brown cardigan, Gap jean-jacket (again), and golden-rod scarf (again). I have repeated a lot this week. I will blame it on the lack of sleep!
