Well, in high school I was sick a lot and so I used up all my absences that I could have potentially used for skipping on staying home sick. xD In college I just couldn't make myself skip class because I normally took classes where class discussion was half the point and most of the learning and ideas were gained by going...and plus, I was just so painfully aware of how much each class costs. o.o; Idk, one time I did out the math, and even at my vaguely cheap public university that I got a considerable scholarship to, each class was still worth on average over $50 :S If I skipped class I felt like I was kind of throwing that money away. Maybe that's not a healthy way to look at it but, idk. xD
I'd be lying, though, if I didn't admit that my last semester I almost never went to lectures for a comp sci class I took. I didn't count that as skipping "for the hell of it" on this meme though, since I went to classes for the first half of the semester and then decided that I literally got more confused if I listened to that particular professor explaining things! And since attendance was optional, I decided I wasn't going to haul my ass to campus only to confuse myself on purpose when Andres could explain the same things to me easily and in a way I'd understand. xD That could have been my senioritis over-justifying it, though, I'm not sure. But yeah, that's the only class I ever missed for anything other than accidentally oversleeping or having a field trip for another class o.O; Which is kind of crazy, looking back on it now.
