    Total time consuming monster. Love it, hate it, but you'll always be tired waking up before 9AM.

    I'm sorry to be the one to break the news to you but those of us with jobs don't really have it much better. I was awake before 8AM this morning and I get to do it again tomorrow morning. 8D

    Actually, I think it's eight hours.

    Whatever though.

    For most days in a year.

    Almost a seventh (1/6.954036675~) of your life is spent in school if you live to be eighty. Not counting universities. Kindergarten and twelve grades.

    Honestly.

    Can't we just enjoy our lives while we can?
    It's not like we get to live forever.

    Alright getting technical on me. I thought it was clever and convenient.

    But yea, it isn't really seven hours any more. Maybe school needs a new name...

    You didn't look stupid.
    It varies from school to school.

    Kids should be left in libraries, not kept in classes. I didn't go to school, and I'm not worse off for it. Am I?

    Granted you have talent. But isn't it more important in what you accomplish in the library?

    Where I go to school, this statement is false.
    My school day is six hours and forty-five minutes. Starting at 7:50 AM and ending at 2:35 PM.

    Still sucks, though. XD

    Yes, but most kids find something productive to do with their time, especially if expectations are set for them; if they have goals to complete, and prizes. That's why summer reading programs are so successful.

    Yeah, no.
    I actually enjoyed going to school. [Yanno, aside from the emotional issues I was/am having.] Some of my customers are nice but there are always a few bad apples in the bunch. Drunks, people trying to pull scams, people who are just out to make your day hell just because they're having a bad day, old people who think they're entitled to everything because they're old, screaming kids whining because they didn't get the candy bar/cereal/ice cream they wanted. I consider myself lucky that no one's pulled a gun on me yet.

    I don't recall having to worry about or deal with that sort of thing at school. [Though my classmates thought I'd be the one bringing the gun. They told me as much to my face/when I was in earshot.]

    Then there is the fact that I get a paycheck. Which is nice. Granted most of it goes towards bills, gas, and car payments. What's left goes in the bank to collect interest.

    I know this is true of myself.

    You're not worse off for not going to school. In fact, you seem like one of the more rational and intellectual people that I know.
