Never in the history of me posting on this site, has any thread hit me like this just did! I'm so pissed! As I sit back and think about my THIRD day at BCA I knew I was fucked.....
The only thing that anyone knew about me was that I was a good looking 14 year old who appeared to like to hang around guys more that I liked to hang around females. As a matter of fact, I couldn't really stand females who weren't tomboys like me. (Plus, I had the whole "gangster" image gettin thrown into my face because people knew THAT aspect about my life without knowing my name. Of course, they only knew the aspect of it that was ridiculed and used as a "tool") Next thing I knew, my team leader calls me into a room off the dining hall, (Old Eagle Team Room, later became the Bison Team Room) and thanks to an 'upper school student' throws me on All Guy Bans because i have dishonest relationships with men. Of course because no one had really taken any time to get to know anything about me yet, I had a hard time understanding who I even had a relationship with at that point that they were talkin about but I knew that this meant 'Do not speak with the boys in the school or I was gonna look like a mechanic' <---Jumpsuit
So these bans that I spent two years on (and if you can believe this, the only reason why I had gaps in the bans was because after awhile people really forgot I was on them) But almost as soon as they were forgotten, I was seen talkin with a member of the opposite sex, or laughin or smiling at them and they were re-instilled!
As far as the work assignments, I could turn the shit pile four times in a day! Manual labor had never been ANYTHING to me. The full time that affected me the most was the one where I had to make the island that used to sit behind the red shed at the farm at BCA. I spent some time in the dirt area that seperated RMA from BCA, not the soccer field, but more towards the wood correl at RMA. There used to be big piles of dirt filled with rocks of all sizes, (including pebbles and shit). I had to use dirt from that field, so I towed wheelbarrows from the wood correl at RMA to the farm at BCA. I also had to make sure that NONE of the dirt had ANY form of rock sediment in it. It was ridiculous. I also had to line this island I had made with large boulders. This was all to reflect that I wouldn't ask for help with this project as I don't ask for help in life. How are you gonna punish someone for being independant, because really if you look at it, that's all that's about.
Once I finished that work assignment in an insane amount of time, they took me off work assignments which took the place of my classes. All day unless I was using the bathroom, eating or sleeping, I sat at that damn table in Quixote Lodge. And when I DID eat, I sat at a table alone then too! They said that I hid out in the work assignments!
:roll:
I hadn't remembered these details until now. God Damn!
