I ask you: what has the world come to when a child would rather enter the Hunger Games than go back to school? It's ridiculous, isn't it? Because I've got to admit, strangely, I agree. School is painful, boring, stupid, useless, and downright irritating. I'd rather be thrust into an arena where I could kill or be killed any given moment.
Actually, I have a whole list of things I'd rather do than school.
1. Enter Hunger Games
2. Travel the universe with the Doctor
3. Become an actor
4. Get lost in a forest somewhere
5. Stay at home with my siblings (which is almost as painful as school)
6. Get kidnapped

| Just saying. |
8. Get arrested
9. Swim the English Channel
10. Be taken hostage by insane Arabs
11. Be locked in Incarceron
12. Get sucked into some magical world like Narnia
13. Go to Hogwarts
14. Battle Voldemort
15. Visit Middle Earth
16. Fight in the Last Time War on Gallifrey
17. Go to Camp Half-Blood
18. Travel to Pandora and meet the Na'vi
19. Be in the Iditerod
20. Invent a way to play Quidditch for real
21. Watch The Sound of Music three hundred times in a row
22. Have a movie marathon of all my least favorite movies
23. Be locked in a tower for eighteen years
24. Undergo Chinese water torture
25. Get locked in Fablehaven
Sadly, most of those have zero chance of happening. So here I am. Otherwise I'd be long gone.
Although, you know, it's funny... if someone said to me, "Never watch another Doctor Who, and you never have to go to school again," I'd probably keep going to school, just so I could keep watching Doctor Who.
I'll step up to the brink of death but I won't give up my favorite T.V. show.
Odd. Not sure what that says about me.
At any rate, I've got just a few more weeks of boredom to plow through before I get to sit around for the entire summer. I'm not sure if I'll survive. Everything gets so monotonous around this time of year. It's all review and CORE Testing and this and that and more review and ick and yuck and hot and tiring and stuff.
Life is so boring :P Something exciting needs to happen to me.
