three days of freedom.

I am so tired of people saying one thing, and meaning another. I mean, if you are going to tell someone or even a group of people to do something, you better follow up on your end. I've had this problems with friends frequently, but I never thought it would come into play on a larger scale.

And then our school had Spirit Week for the second time, the week where everyone is free of dress code. 

Except this time, people are getting dress coded.

Ummmm...

Is it just me, or is Spirit Week supposed to be no dress code?

So I asked. And they said that the clothes worn by the people who were dress coded weren't appropriate. Damn right they aren't appropriate! That's what this week is all about- it's the three days, yes, only THREE DAYS, where we get to be as skanky and free as we want! If I'm going to wear a collared shirt for every other school day, I'm going to use my right to three days of freedom. And now people are getting in trouble for using that right?
And it wasn't just a few people. I have seen four people walk by me so far, all having to change because someone couldn't get their facts straight.

And I realize this isn't a big deal. But it just bothers me because it seems like they're taking away our rights.

And little things like this can turn into big things.

Much, much bigger things.

So please. Say what you mean, and mean what you say, High Tech High.
