Alrighty then...

Ok, it's official. I'm through with school. Ok, I lied. But this is getting annoying. Before coming to France I always thought that when I heard that schools on the French side were striking, it seemed fun.

This shit is not.

My years in France have been strike plagued. There are no other ways to put this. Last year, we got locked out of school for damn near 2 months. You would leave your house to go to school (on the first couple days atleast, when they said the strike would only last a week) and as you arrive you would see a bunch of clowns (not real clowns, but clowns nonetheless) playing guitars and singing in front of the entrances. Not letting anybody in. *insert gasface here*

They would have these sort of meetings called General Assemblies. Total wastes of time. I went to the first one since they said that during these so-called meetings we got the chance to vote if we wanted to continue the strike or not. Never again. Those things last 4 to 5 hours.

My school is pretty small, around 15000 or so students. 300 people voted for the strike. That's democracy. And those same 300 people continued voting for the strike for 2 months. Where were the other 12000? Most probably at home like myself.

Oh well. Guess what? Yeah, you got that right. We're on strike again. Only this time, the teachers won't be complaining about how us students are wasting their time. Because they are the ones striking now. Yessir, I wonder what their excuses will be now? What am I saying? There won't be any excuses. Psshhh, moving right along.

It's no wonder Paris is viewed as a strike loving country. That shit couldn't be any closer to the truth. I get the whole "fighting for your rights" crap, but there is a limit. Fight for YOUR rights. Do NOT under no circumstances disturb me while I'm peacefully living my life. I'm not bothering you, don't bother me. Do that and we most definitely can get along. As things are now, we are enemies. Oh well, I guess that's the whole purpose, to get the rest of the people agitated so that it will force the government to act.

What is that you say? The people in government are the ones at fault? Oh. Well that changes everything then. Why not just get rid of them? Too radical? I agree. But it was funny when heard the first time. (You won't get the last couple sentences if you don't read the link)

Oh well. Such is life, and sadly, I'm stuck in the middle of it. As is, I currently only have school on fridays. Fun times.

I'm bored as hell.

I'm out.

P.S. The upstairs neighbours had a fight last night. That shit lasted for more than an hour. Somebody got beat the hell up. Poor lady. Baby was screaming its head off and dude kept laying the smackdown on his lady. They're like two floors up and I could hear her hit the floor from here. Disgusting.
