So at school, it’s as bad as usual. The guys keep looking at me like I’m emo/goth. The girls are as judgemental and narrow-minded as usual. I don’t mind them. but oh my friggin gawd the grades. I’m far from being stupid, at least until it comes to math. The teachers only make it worse. I am only twelve but I am really stressed out. I was sick for like 3 days in school, and I have a project due on Mon. and I haven’t come close to finishing it. It must sound pretty pathetic that out of all things I’m complaning about my grades, but it causes some *ahem* gashes in the ego. I would really appreciate help, sympathy, recongition. Something so I know I’m not alone. I can’t just put my foot down and say “let’s do this”. My parents want good grades, and they prefer straight A’s. I have a tendancey to get distracted, and to procrassinate (i spelled it wrong). Sooo what do you guys do when you get bad grades.

im 26 graduated with a 1.9 gpa and yet have a better career and earn a better salary than 80 – 90 percent of the kids that got the best grades and went straight to college with their parents trust funds – grades are just a way for the daycare/school to keep things manageable for the masses of people. the ‘guys’ in your school that you say think your this or that will amount to little more than what they are now in life – followers in a group-think mentality living out predictable lives based on dominant/submissive roleplay. same with the ‘girls’. find whatever niche that feels best for you, and if there’s not one where you are, take pride in that since it means that you’re sensitive to what makes you feel good and what matters to you more than selling out for the temporary high of being popular in that temporary environment. know that you can find many who will greatly respect you for who you are as an individual in the future. everyone fells like shit, most will and do do anything to feel better, including joining packs of bullies and abusers thus abusing themselves. yet in the end those aren’t the ones who are as significant in this world than those who endure the suffering they cause without joining the mindless hoards.
grain of salt tho – this is coming from someone who is here on this blog….
but of course many of those you referred to are one step away from suicide themselves – hell they have already committed it if you ask me.
Yeah I agree with the first post. I got a good education but everyone’s mileage may vary. Every waking minute of my life has been slow torture, so obviously I’m hustlin’ to get off this rock. Hey don’t worry, things will get better or we can sneak out early. No one live a perfect life and no one lives forever either.
