"Playing hooky" usually means that one is skipping out on the entire school day for fun (usually to go to that cool movie that they want to see, or just stay home and play video games!). "Ditch class" usually means that one is skipping out on once class. HOWEVER: Playing hooky can be used interchangeably. "Hit the ceiling"...I haven't heard that phrase used in ages! But, it would be smoother to say: "She hit the ceiling, she was so mad!" or "He was so angry, he hit the ceiling!" or even "If I'm late again, my boss will hit the ceiling!" If you said: "He almost hit the ceiling." that implies that he just became a little upset ;)

1. They're the same. 2. You can't say "he's hitting the ceiling". You can't use this expression to say: "He's absolutely mad." You could say: He's so mad he's about to hit the ceiling. For the past: He was so mad he almost hit the ceiling.
