Students Banned From Bringing Pencils To School 426

mernilio writes "According to UPI: 'A Massachusetts school district superintendent said a memo banning sixth graders from carrying pencils was written without district approval. North Brookfield School District interim Superintendent Gordon Noseworthy said Wendy Scott, one of two sixth-grade teachers at North Brookfield Elementary School, did not get approval from administrators before sending the memo to all sixth-grade parents, the Worcester Telegram & Gazette reported Thursday. The memo said students would no longer be allowed to bring writing implements to school. It said pencils would be provided for students in class and any students caught with pencils or pens after Nov. 15 would face disciplinary action for having materials 'to build weapons.'"

This is my last school night, ignoring my final in math on Saturday, until I go to college. As I have been writing these entries when I should have been doing school, I decided to write here instead of study for my English quiz.

Journal Journal: Cars and Girls....

Well, to start things off, tonight I found out that I will probably not get a car until sometime when I am at college. For a long time now, it has been my goal to get my license, a job, and a car.

Journal Journal: Tonight....

I haven't written in forever, and I can write very little right now but...
Tonight, I am in love with love. I yearn for the love of someone I can see and hear. I yearn for her smile, her wit, and her laugh, but I don't even know who she is. At this moment, the thought is encompassed imperfectly in one girl, but the feeling is so much more than her. I know someday God will show me her, and one more thing will be done in my life, but I have so much trouble waiting until the time is right.

Journal Journal: Today...


On friday, I have an english paper due, and the paper is abstract. I chose to write about being a punk, which ends up being very hard to describe. I can't write. I just can't. I can play music, dance, program, read, work out math problems, and learn, but I can't write.

Being a punk is about disliking popular culture, and sometimes showing that in your appearance. I can explain that much, but the appearance factor is so complex.
