Angry Rant- They're Replacing my Locker!


            Is it bad that I’m getting genuinely upset about the fact that they’re replacing my locker? I’m actually really angry, sad, annoyed, and generally overwhelmed by this. This has been my locker since the first day of freshman year; now 3/4 of the way through my senior year they decide to tear it down?
            Since my freshman year, they’ve been gradually replacing all the lockers at my school each summer. Being one of the last sets of lockers left, my locker was next to go. But when they didn’t replace it this past summer, I figured it would stay at least until I graduated. But no. I walk into school today and there’s a note on my locker saying “clean out your locker by Friday, it will be replaced over April Break”. I mean come on! You cannot just do it like this. Did they really just give me two days notice that they’re ripping apart the little piece of that school that was all mine?
            My first reaction was sadness. I love my locker. All the new lockers are top/bottom lockers. But my old one is 3/4 of the way up, then it has a cubby on top. It’s a great size and shape for all of my stuff. Of course then I felt angry. I was just given two days to clean out and get rid of the thing that was all mine. With all these emotions I kind of went around throwing mini temper tantrums all day. But could you blame me?
            I mean now I have to worry about having someone above or below me, learning a new combination, and dealing with the hideous burgundy color that they new lockers will be. Ugh, like did they really have to do this now? Couldn’t they have just waited until the summer?
