Talking about the book Into The Wild in my English class.

So my teacher thinks that McCandless was a transendentalist just because he tried to survive in Alaska on his own. Like no! He was a dumb ass who died because he was ignorant! Like who could survive off of a 22 and a 10 lbs bag of rice!? And he only did it because he was rich. You don't see a person who's struggling say, "hey I think I'm going to ditch everything and see if I can survive is Alaska!" like no. Just stop while you're ahead.

I am a girl

Hey,

I'm not a cheerleader

Or a model 

And I don't own 1,000 pairs of shoes

Or go shopping everyday 

Or worry about breaking nails while playing sports

And I don't dress up nicely everyday

I have lazy days too

And my vocabulary doesn't only consist of "omg" and "lol"

I am a girl, and I'm proud to be one!

American slang kills, honestly.

I was wicked happy that we were doing something like poetry, because I am mildly good in that but then I was told we had to use American slang. I know slang if every other language other than American English. Honestly. I know ended up using Google and still cannot find a damned thing. I swear, but, on the other hand. I will be sleeping with mild shyness tonight. If that makes any sense. Goodness me.

It was a joke!

Beware when you jokingly tell your old teacher that you would come back and teach a lesson, because he will take that idea and run with it! You will end up teaching a whole day with your best friend. It's crazy but I love this, I'm teaching creative writing along with talking about college with the wonderful prettyperfectlies!
