T-Town Tagging...

Tagging in Tucson is a huge deal when it comes to high school students along with many of the few adults that still tag today. Tagging originally started of with a guy that wrote "CORNBREAD" to get attention from a girl he liked with a few tags, soon turned into a full time mission, getting up so much that he gave himself a crown. "CORNBREAD" also had a partner in crime who wrote "KOOL EARL". "CORNBREAD" pretty much set off the tagging game to a fresh start influencing people all over the world with which taggers call "ups". Ups can be anything that you write but, there are certain names for different hit ups for a example "QUICK HIT UPS are something you can do in ten to fifteen seconds tops. As BOMBS can take up to ten minutes depending on what your write, PEACES are two to three hours of just beautiful art work , and BURNERS are the sickest peace you can do usually containing about three to four colors.

T.U.S.D.

As the year progresses I see a lot of teacher who are getting cut from the district kind of careless, about what there continuing to teach us and how we as students understand what were learning. A teacher told me today that the work I do wouldn't matter as long as i pass the final test ill get a good grade.

I also see a lot of them worried, looking in the paper for job adds, seeing what is in need of a worker. I heard these teachers walking in front of me today, talking about getting a job at mic Donald's... that's just a little over the top but i guess that is the best idea when the economy crashes and every ones in dire need of money.

I really don't have an idea about whats gonna happen when we lose all these teachers but I can guess its most likely to be very bad. Freshmen this year were required to take tech. apps, it was manditory and now there almost destroying the whole class due to over priced school activities and other stuff we could honestly go without.

T.U.S.D. - Is retarded for cutting so many pointless things like teachers, out of the picture because of this huge budget cut. I think it is unfair and there really isn't a point to just go and cut out teachers that have been here for so long, and these teachers need to teach to get paid its not like students need sports or band or any other activities that don't raise money. Sports should be entirely cut out of the picture due to the recent drop in thee economy. Teachers of fifteen years are being "laid off" because T.U.S.D. can't support everything that's going on which isn't in any way these innocent teachers fault.
