Dear morons who decided to redivide up my school into houses,
You all suck. Can we possibly get any more elitist? I mean, now we're not just better than all the public school kids, we can look down on EACH OTHER for being in different houses. It's like we're at Hogwarts, and I'm trying desperately to pretend that I did not actually just get sorted into a house called Auslander.
Is it just me, or does that sound obscenely German?
Granted, it's better than Trudgian, which just sounds like a bad sci-fi species, but honestly. AUSLANDER. What the hell, school. You just got about ten times more pretentious.
When people ask me where I went to high school, I'm going to smile and say "Local public school". Because really, otherwise I'm going to have to say "Hell, Prep-style" or "Home of the Socially Inept".
I'm sure I make out my school to be much worse than it actually is. In reality, we didn't have to stand out in the cold for an hour and half while we ran through an earthquake drill. In reality, our school doesn't have both a chapel and a bell tower. In reality, our cafeteria is just that--a cafeteria, and not The Refectory. In reality, I'm just hallucinating all of this.
Hell, I probably don't even exist. But if I don't exist, why am I still getting emails from a football-playing jock who is in my advisory (and therefore my house) that consist of THIS:
<3
I only wish I was kidding. I'm never going to be able to look this guy in the face again. I mean, it's a chat-heart. Either I'm really impressed that he is secure enough in his crappy football skills to send an email like that out to over a hundred high schoolers, or I'm traumatised. I'm still not sure which--my brain seems to have stopped functioning out of shock. But still...Auslander.
Next Wednesday, when we're supposed to be wearing house colors, I think I'll wear tie-dye. Screw you, high school.

Guess what. Trugian's mascot is a narwhal.
Yours is just a piddly walrus.
narwhal>walrus. narwhal=unicorn-whale; walrus=fatuglyfattyfatfatblubberballsealtypething. Sorry.
Yeah, I know, the house system is stupid, but I thought the pwnsomeness of Trugian needed to be pointed out. But the whole idea is stupid..really. Except the narwhals.
*is stoned from lateness*

In other news, this guy is also a pretty decent representation of Trugian (according to google)

NO! Nordhoff is definatly the superior house, period. Tsubaki, you just upset at the house system cause you got placed in a crappy one. Admit it... You're jealous of team Norhoff.
on a more related note, I don't really think the house system adds to the already considerable pretenciousness of the school, but rather is a medium for friendly competition among peers.
anyways... just my two-cents
*stoned from earlyness... why did I wake up*
I just made a facebook group about this except I didn't know how to articulate my feelings about how no lakesider actually enjoys responding to the question, "where do you go to school?" and that the house system is incredibly stupid. then I stumbled upon this post. and I smiled. thank you
