My friends invited me on a cross country ride so I am thinking about skipping school to do that.
Shouldn't you be spending this time to study instead of trying to go cross country?
You're probably right.
Going to school is very important for your future so you shouldn't skip school. Finish getting your education, then you can enjoy all the cross country rides you want.
I understand what you're saying.
That's good, you should continue learning and when you skip school you only hurt yourself. I am glad that you are taking my advice and still going in to learn.
