Why have we convinced ourselves that backpacks are only for students and children? They’re legit so much better than purses. You’ve gotta use your arm all the time. Then you have to set down your purse just to pick something up or pay for something. And it hurts to carry too much on one shoulder so you keep having to switch it back and forth. It’s always swinging around and hitting things. Anyway, backpacks are far superior to purses and I will never stop wearing them.
Aww my eyes welled up.
sometimes i think about gay people who lived centuries ago who thought they were all alone who imagined a world where they could live openly as themselves who met in secret spoke in code defied everything and everyone just to exist and i’m like..i gotta sit down. whew i gotta sit down
My bus comes at 6:28 every morning but school doesn’t technically start til 7:40. It doesn’t really matter though when you’ve gotta be out of the house by 6:20 at the latest. Middle school was worse though. It started around 7:20.
Letting teens sleep in could save the US over $9 billion dollars a year.
Studies show teenage brains are wired to stay up and wake up late, they need 8 to 10 hours of sleep per night, and that school therefore starts too early.
It is estimated that high school classes starting after 8:30 am or later would improve student health, boost graduation rates, raise lifetime earning potential, and lower the risk of fatigue-related car crashes, all of which could potentially contribute at least $83 billion to the US economy within a decade.
