Fucking Appleby and those spoiled kids.

I hate. Let me say that again HATE, what Appleby College has turned into. It has transformed from one of the most respected schools to... still a respected school - but not by me - or many people in my family. What goes on their is bullshit. I'm talking about the teaching and the grades this time. I'm talking about the discipline, or lack thereof.
When I started at Appleby they were strict. Skirts had to be a certain length, shirts HAD to be tucked in, appropriate sweaters must be worn, heel could not be too high, one earing per ear, no other visible piercings/tatoos. Students respected teachers, a teacher walked in the room - the students stood up. The Chapel was treated with respect. Now... even the "prefects" wear "illegal" sweaters. BUT who cares? NO ONE. The school has turned into a country club for rich kids where they just happen to learn enough to get into University. Students now have facial piercings, nose rings and eyebrow rings. Heels, skirts, as high as they want to be. No one says anything more. Why? Because then you'll piss of the kid, which will piss of thier rich daddy which will mean they won't donate as much money.
Or maybe I'm just full of it.
Today my sister told me about an incident in Chapel. Father Lennox actually had to kick students out - he yelled and had to tell them to be quite. The chapel is something that students have to do, it's mandatory. HOWEVER, I do not believe that saying it is not your faith is a viable excuse to not attend. That's bullshit. When you enroll at Appleby you are FULLY aware that it is an Anglican school, the bloody chapel cannot be missed as you pull in. Students attend chapel every day. I do not believe you should attend Appleby if you are not going to respect the chapel and other people's beliefs. It's not like it was hidden from you until you got there and you're being forced to do it. It's clear. Students talk through Chapel, don't respond to prayers, or just don't go - claiming they don't believe in God or it's not their religion. That's bullshit. It's part of the curriculum at Appleby so suck it up. Have a little respect for the parts of the school that do take it seriously. I'm Catholic - I rarely skipped chapel, I sang in the choir and I answered the prayers. Why? Because it was out of respect for the school, and respect for the rest of the community.
Kids today have no respect. None at all.
It makes me sick. It really, really does.
