Just Don't Feel Like Class Today

just really don't feel like going to class today

yeah?

yeah

well...

i know i know i should

well yeah you should

don't think i will though

you know i'm all about doing what feels right

you think i should go though

i do

well...

don't let me stop you though

man...

what

don't guilt me like that

like what

like that all passive aggressive

hey no way. do what you have to do you know

i know

so you're not going

doesn't look like it

you could still make it if you left now

if i wanted to make it

yeah if you wanted to

i don't

just be sure about it

man you make such a big deal out of it

you are paying for it

well, i'm not

somebody is

yeah

somebody is paying for you to be there

it's not like i haven't done it before

yeah

i mean it's just one class

sure

it's not even a class

oh?

just a tutorial. an hour long

just a tutorial

yeah i mean it's no big deal. it's not like we do much

if you say so

just our awkward TA and a bunch of film snobs saying stupid stuff
like they can't even hear what they're saying

yeah tutorials can be pretty bad

and the awkward silences and the stupid little quizes.
that's what i get for taking a first year course

so you definitely aren't going

definitely not

slippery slope...

i know i know i know but don't worry

hey you're a responsible adult. who's worrying

man... people turning twenty all around me. i don't need any reminders

just go to class

and waste bus fare for an hour of class? i'm just going to turn around
and come right back you know

you don't have to come right back. there's stuff you can study

we know how that will turn out. it won't

hey whatever

it's now officially too late. can't make the bus

that's too bad. i was hoping you would reconsider

decision is out of my hands now

yeah blame the bus schedule

hey whatever. i'm an adult now and i get to define what that means

hahaha ok

what

what what

what's so funny

you'd sound more believable if you weren't still living at home

low blow

the statement stands.

you know the situation. hey and i have statistics. more and more kids stay home later.
it just makes financial sense

right no that's cool. just stop pretending to be all big and grown up then

man when do i ever act like i'm grown up ever. never. i'm not working under any
false pretenses here

yeah but that's more out of fear than anything else

you say that like being afraid to grow up is abnormal

whatever peter pan

i'm not even that scared. i'm kinda excited a little. nervous but cautiously
optimistic, you know

what do you have to be optimistic about

well...

that came out harsher than i meant it to

i don't even know what i'm optimistic about. school is awful

i gathered

i need a job, a decent ok steady job before i can even think about moving forward

what about school

what about school? school can jump off a bridge. i'll take a break

are you sure?

i'm hoping it will scare me into going back to school.

school or a life time in retail

yeah. either that or i'll realize i can do my own thing without having to go back.

i think that once you leave it might be hard to jump back in.

maybe. but then maybe that's the way it has to be. it's not like i'm on pace to
graduate any time soon.

if you left right now...

yeah, i'm really not going to class today.
