damn that sucks sorry to hear that. I never smoked in high school but i know if i did i would have used my dugout, but yeah its a bad idea to begin with.
Just remember life does not end after this day, although I'm sure it feels like it. Just be a fighter man. Peace, and good luck.Quote:

Secondly, blazing up in ANY public place - especially somewhere as confined as public restrooms...in a school....where lots of people can randomly enter...sheesh man, go and get your head examined!!!! (lol)(;))
*Res takes off 'stern head' and replaces the 'Res head'*
I'm really not sure what the school is trying to acheive here :confused:
They're gonna kick you out of school for a bit - creating alienation from the other pupils, unrest at home, wasting court time and tieing up the legal system, with the addition of all the stigma attached to your school record, not to mention the possiblity of a criminal one!
Ok, so you, slipnslide, may view this is the same way as someone might view being caught dropping litter - in other words, it probably won't damage your psychological outlook :) - but not all kids are able to do this...what amount of trauma would be pressed upon a different kid!
The beginnings of a 'bad apple'.
My point is this:
Why be so draconian and risk the bad apple, when a responsible bollocking from the Principle would probably deter the pupil from doing anything so foolish again. The school would still be able to keep tabs on the pupil, without the worry that the pupil will have to deal with all the shit that I detailed earlier.
They must surely ask themselves why the pupil feels the need to take drugs in the first place - usually due to social unrest, or home-life problems, etc.
Instead, they take a broad scope of this type of thing, and probably create more problems for that pupil (child) to deal with!
I just don't understand it :confused:
Here's a possible senario to consider, which may help to illustrate my point:
Fred is a sad kid; he's ignored at home (at best) or (at worst) beaten. He finds interacting with other kids at school to be very difficult, and is considered by many to be a loner. His grades are average to poor, as he finds it difficult to concentrate due to the pressures of homelife and peer oppression.
He smokes weed as much for escapism, as he does for a 'cry for help' - or seeking attention from an authoritive figure...
You get the picture, I think :)
He's caught smoking at school, and gets all the usual standard response - expellation, parents informed, and police involvement.
He's sent home, where the parents go mad at him, then has to go through the judicial system, and eventually has to return to school amidst all the finger pointing and whispers. Not to mention the fact that his school record will tell prospective employers/colleges, etc about it!
And all the while, the kid sinks deeper into darkness....
Alternatively:
The Principle has a quite word in the kid's shell-like, sets up some counselling, and puts the kid on secret probation. No one else knows about it.
During counselling, the kid's homelife is revealed (maybe something can be done about it), and is able to start dealing with his shit.
Also, because none of the other kids know, he is able to integrate back into class, without the stigma of being 'the school pot-head'.
I think that the latter senario (broad though it is) offers the 'offending' kid a far better chance at advancement than the former.
I know it becomes sticky because of the parents right to know, but I dunno...I just think that every case should be looked at individually - if the Principle is worth his salt, then he should be able to make a responsible judgement call on something like this.
Golden rule, dude - don't be toking it up in school - lesson learnt, I think ;)
Good luck with it all, slip - I hope it all works out ok, and that the worse thing you get is a bit of embaressment :)
Res...
Sucks to hear ya situation man. At least your not on probation, right? Your not getting piss tested are you?
You should have all gone into a stall, went outside, or not smoke on school grounds at all. Its just safer that way. I get my buds from school too so i understand theres always a possablity of getting caught. Just be smarter next time and hope for the best! Good Luck!
lol thanks Res, i actually have no problem, with it...my mom doesnt really give a fuck, she never does about nothing, doesnt bother me, but alot of people knows i got caught, 100's of people been caught up at that school, i was telling my friends i was like hahahah! u guys were caught and i havent been caught with bud or anything, (shouldn't of said that, came back and bit me in the ass the same day) but its all good, im not gonna blaze at school no more, lesson learnt, after i think like...1 year or something of an alternative school, i can go back to that highschool :D so nothing big thankfully

well,that fucking sucks doesnt it ehy? unlucky dude
in my first year at uni, we smoked in my room all year then in the last few weeks the fire alarm was set off by all the smoke. fire brigade came and reported smelling weed to the uni,i ended up getting a disciplinary,nearly chucked out of uni but managed to wangle a 50 pound fine in the end...they did mention reportin it to the police to be honest like they would give a fuck? in england its a formal warning for small amounts,that means jackshit,couldnt be arsed with the restrictions some states have over the pond
