The insane Baka's thoughts
This is about me and my thoughts and what you can do to help. Sometimes.
Senior crap's expensive
Class ring: Minimum of $60, looks like crap, but mainly a couple hundred bucks
Cap and gown package: $160 about
Down payment: $50 by next week.

What? They think we're made of money or something? These people are stupid. It's a giant scam. Their order forms are very confusing. And then, I have to pay people money, buy new headphones, and buy anime. So, by the time all that's said and done, I'm left with possibly $50 or so. Not pretty. It's as if They expect us to buy the cap and gown, and that all the essential stuff won't even leave a scratch on our wallets. This'll be the first time in a long time that I'll actually be close to broke. This sucks.

Those prices are way too extreme. Makes me glad I'm still in middle school.

There is no way in hell that I'm going to buy a ring. And, I think it's just Pullman that has these outrageous prices. The people want as much money as possible. My dad's going to call my aunt and see if she had to buy the cap and gown when my cousin graduated. So, We have to spend a minimum of $140. I think. It's going to be painful next year.

Geez, I don't think our high school requires anything to be bought. I feel sorry for you. It's so not right to charge that much.

In the past, you just had to rent the stuff. But, it's handy to have a professional to do the invitations and stuff for you. There's nothing we can do to lower the price and still get what we need. It makes me wanna smack the guy in charge.

That sounds like chorus tuxedos tripled. Good quality for terrible prices.

Probably. It's just painful having to pay hundreds of dollars for stuff.

Do you have to do it?

My dad and I went over this stuff the other night. We just picked out the essentials. even then it's expensive. I have to pay for half of the sweatshirt I want. So, yes. I have to have this stuff. My parents still have to pay for the Senior Ad. That's about $25.

I guess this all has to happen sooner or later in school. (Sad, but true.)

Yes. And then I sometimes have buy lunch at the school for $2.25, which isn't too bad, but I go negative allot.

Ooo, definitely not pretty. At least that's a necessity for survival.

Yeah. I don't really like the school lunches that much. They taste gross, and they don't fill me up. Yet, I have to take them when we don't have anything for lunch. At least I've stopped buying water. I just carry around a 1 liter water bottle.
