I know I know it helps for a good future.
But the more people nag about it, the more I want to throw away my books and tell them to study themselves.
EVERY single day I get complaints about school.
(But I’m not one to talk since I’m complaining myself).
When are they going to realise I don’t care about school AT ALL.
Please someone tell them their endless nagging is no use.
-Sincerely a tired (also never studying, failing) student.

Hi Azu. I’m a teacher and it’s our job to care about students and encourage them to try their best in school. What is it about school that you don’t like? Why don’t you care about school anymore? It’s never too late to start doing your assignments and passing your courses. 🙂
I honestly have nothing against school itself, but somehow I simply don’t care?
For some reason I always start my years with the good will of doing something but then I drop back to doing nothing.
I’m redoing this year for my second time, and I stayed behind 3 times, if I fail again this year my parents would send me to work.
And honestly I still don’t care. .-.
I know how you feel.
School is a means to an end (or should be). It’s supposed to teach you what you need to sustain yourself. In your case, it doesn’t seem to be working.
You need some kind of intervention. A change of subjects, a change of school, whatever.
School should be about doing something that gives you a kick and getting really fucking good at it, so you can go out afterwards and sell your skills for money. That’s all there is to it.
I don’t know anyone who hasn’t expressed the same frustration with school as you have.
Having gone back to school as a “mature†student I was amazed at how much a few years difference made.
When I went back I was very focused on what it was I wanted to learn and what I expected to gain with the diploma.
And of course the in hindsight I heard myself saying “if only I knew then what I knew nowâ€. Not what I was learning but how I was learning.
It takes time though to be honest with ourselves and the necessarily of live. We need shelter, food, love…. and acquiring or experiencing them requires skills. And skills require learning, and sometimes, for example with regards to jobs we have to fulfill the expectations of what the learning looks like.
So I guess I’m saying that the earlier you can be honest with yourself and be clear about your expectations and then comparing that to your actions. The better you will feel about yourself and about what your learning.
Are you doing what is required to get what you want or is your attitude getting in your own way?
Society likes to say, our children are our number one priority and its true to some extent. However then the child becomes 18 and Society says you’re on your own. It can be quite a shook and may adults never get over the hurt of it.
After you graduate high school, then you can attend college and focus on a program that you wish to pursue, to help you get a decent job afterwards. Think about something that you want to do when school is over.
It kind of sucks when there is literally no job you are striving for, and you are just going to college because… because… people say it’s good. i’ve been looking around at all the majors and different job options, and they all suck (not in terms of money, but of enjoyment). So I never have any motivation. It’s also hard to be motivated when you plan on killing yourself within the next few months (:
@ skyinsatan:
Well college isn’t the only way of learning. Fair enough if there is literally nothing you like doing, I feel a bit that way myself, and then, well, death seems awful alluring.
If there IS something you enjoy doing, just do it, fuck college, do it and make money from it. That’s the end purpose of college anyway.
That’s the problem. Gots mega anhedonia. If I hate everything, I might as well make bank doing it, and the best way to make bank is to go to college.
