Backpack left by a senior forgetting his/her academics

Approximately 720 days of school. The thought of so many hours spent stuck in class seems daunting at least, impossible at worst. However, each and every M-A student that graduates will be in school close to this many days over the course of their four years as a bear. It is no wonder, then, that second semester seniors sometimes find it difficult to do work, pay attention in class or come to school period.
For many of my friends the year has become a game of attendance blackjack. The goal is to get as close to 18 cuts per class as possible without going over. Personally, I seem to have caught a severe case of this contagious disease. There was definitely a three-week stretch where I didn’t open my backpack at home once.
In fact, I don’t really want to do this anymore; I think im gonna go play some Call of Duty…
