• You are surprised to know there are other ACE schools out there....somewhere
• You get detentions randomly for having the nerve to stand up to stuff thats wrong, that in a way they tell you to stand up for.
• You know that once you throw 30 papperballs down the wall of peoples desk its only a matter of time till the teachers look away again and they all get pelted back to you.

• You knock down the Christmas garland from on top of the offices and get in trouble because it pulled all the other garlands down.
• You actually feel lucky because you have no finals.
• You can recite all of pastors stories along with him.
• You actually begin to wonder what will happen to each of the ACE characters by the time that last English PACE rolls around.

You look at all the spelling errors in this message, and realize that an ACE student typed it!

OK, this is hilarious. Thanks, Sheila, for sharing with an ACE grad.
