Beat the System

Well kids,
Yesterday I submitted my letter of resignation literally moments before they were going to fire me. Little did they know that I had the 411 on their plan!
Why were they going to fire me, you ask? (I mean, aside from the obvious book controversy) Because a group of my darling AP boys, who will herein remain unnamed, decided to ignore my "if your mom can watch it, so can we" guidelines, and made a grossly inappropriate final movie. Well, someone else (do any of you know who this person was?) ran up to administration and told them about these boys' little film, and the next thing you know, somehow I am getting fired. Just? I think not.
But if we have learned anything this year, it's that the world is not fair and somehow we need to live a life we believe in regardless. Well, I am living that life, and if it means getting fired, so be it. And of course, you all also realize that the book is really why I'm getting fired; they just couldn't use that as the reason because of the principal's signature.
Anyway, I promised I'd keep you updated on this blog, so here's the first one. And like I've been telling you guys, you only live once, so take the situations life hands you and make the best of them. When one door closes, another opens somewhere, even if you can't see it right away.
Ok, so now it's your turn. Keep us updated, too, will ya?
