What is/are your excuses when you're absent in school?

When I was tsill in school, most of my excuses are medical reasons. Like when I was in my third grade in primary years, I was absent for three weeks because I was confined in the children's hospital. As I grow older it more on "stomachache". I have a very sensitive stomach. But I like to eat. Take care

My excuses used to be stupid things like 'I was hungry and woke up late' or 'bus was late'. I used excuses until I realized that my education is too important to skip.

When I studied at school my excuses were head or stomachache, or that I forgot my keys at home, or that the bus was late. But nowadays I work at school and excuses are more funny. One of my students once told me he was absent coz he had no water in the morning or one day he said his mother didn't wake him up.

i usually don't go to school when i have an intense feeling of pain! if i would'nt really make it, then i would not go then.

Hi jersey86, I just wonder if your excuses were valid or you just made those excuses to cover for something. You enroll to study and you are investing your time in school to gain knowledge and prepare yourself for the real world to work. You might get used to making excuses and even make it a habit once you work. Just be careful, I know you've got to make excuses sometimes. But I advise you never waste your time for your studies. Anyway, my reasons for being absent is mostly due to medical reasons. I wish you well my friend in your studies and hope you'll make great someday when you finish your studies.
