School today was anything but boring. It started well enough. The girl I had been asking for out for a month finally told me yes. I thought it was going to be a pretty nice day. Then again I still had four hours of classes to get through my day at school. Little did I know then just how unreal the day was going to get.

The school found a skip to hire for hauling away the kitchen refuse and the driver wrecked his truck right outside of the science wing. The driver was still in the truck while fire was shooting out of the hood as we came outside the school.

The driver made a huge mistake by trying to right the truck with the power of the motor. The smell was so bad we had to be evacuated out of the science wing. We were too close. We guessed the motor was on fire from overheating the truck. Black smoke began to float across to us and we all took off toward the schools front entrance to the parking lots to get out of there.

I nudged a friend of mine and said out loud, “I wonder who he found to take and pass his online test for his license and did he think they would take the cost of the motor and maybe even the truck out of his pay?”, laughing hysterically.

Jackbegan to tell me a little of what he knew one of those drivers had to do to get a license. One full year of schooling and that was just to start. I knew then things were a lot different here in the United Kingdom. I thought about that and decided I better keep my opinion to myself.I after all am from Texas and we have no problem giving the wheel to anyone with a pulse and a little money to buy a paperback book that can passonelittle online test.

Tonight I would have to get my homework from the online site for biology and probably do an online test for Mr. Johansson. My day would be complete by online lessons. Study hall in the morning to get ready for our big end of semester tests and then I was going away for two weeks to go home for Christmas.
