Lunch Lonliness
Posted Friday December 9 2011, 7:16 pm
I sit alone at lunch. I hate it I get so upset about it. Every table I've asked to sit at their table. They've said no because it was too "full" or they just didn't want me there. I hate it so much

My teacher is a douchebag
Posted Tuesday November 29 2011, 11:35 pm
Why is my teacher such a douchebag? He's usually cool but he's been a real bitch lately. Before break he got mad because we were laughing. He gave us a project but didn't explain ANY of it. On Monday, only the students who never talk did it. I'm wondering how the hell they knew about it. Then today my friend was throwing stuff at me, so I pickup up the pen cap he threw at me & shot it to the garbage can, then my teacher kicks me out & gives me a pass to the gym. WTF? Meanwhile people eat & use their phones in class. Wh don't they get kicked and given a pass to the cafeteria or Radioshack? And of course I'm going to fail any quiz/test that covers what I missed that day. So now I'm going to be a smartass in his class, and I could ...

Selfishness
Search history, my boy, and see
What petty selfishness has done.
Find if you can one victory
That little minds have ever won.
There is no record there to read
Of men who fought for self alone,
No instance of a single deed
Splendor they may proudly own.
Through all life's story you will find
The miser—with his hoarded gold—
A hermit, dreary and unkind,
An outcast from the human fold.
Men hold him up to view with scorn,
A creature by his wealth enslaved,
A spirit craven and forlorn...

I hate being younger!
Posted Thursday November 17 2011, 3:35 pm
I'm twelve years old and I'm stuck in class with fourteen year olds. The work is pretty straightforward and easy, but I always feel out of place when around other girls. They're all very nice, but they wear makeup, short skirts, tight tops, and high heels, and I'm always in sweatpants. They all seem so flawless and sophisticated, but my hair and face are always greasy and acne is ruining my complexion. Even worse, guys won't even look at me! I'm so sick of being the odd one out!

School isn't fair
Posted Wednesday November 2 2011, 4:27 pm
Why? Why do numbers have to decide where we're headed? I was always told that we go to school to learn. Well, If I learn a lot and get poor grades, I'm "Not doing what I'm supposed to" So basically if I get bad grades, I'm not learning, even if my tests prove the opposite. I don't get it. I think the system needs to be re-designed. I think tests are more important than homework. In fact, I think our grades should only be based on tests. They're the only thing that proves we learned something. And nowadays, its like knowledge does not matter anymore. All that matters is an unfair number that does not have anything to do with intelligence and ability, and degrees that show how much of this bull you've been through. I'm starting to h...

OK to start off I go to a online high school and in 9th grade. My mom picked all of my courses at the beginning of the year so I take English, Modern World History, Pre Algebra, P.E. Physical Science, and Spanish. My grades are mostly all A's but the problem is my Math course. OK I LOVE math it is my favorite subject but right now there are some students that still don't understand fractions. In 8th grade the last thing that I remember going over was slopes. Which by the way are really easy. So today I asked my teacher when we were going o go over slopes and she said that it might not be till 10th grade or so. So she asked me if I would considerate going to a higher level of math. I don't know what to do. I trie...

Is it acceptable to have co-educational swimming?
Posted Friday October 28 2011, 1:38 pm
at my daughters school ,(9th grade) in PE there will be a swim unit and boys and girls have it together? Why is this allowed? Wouldn't this make girls feel uncomfortable, being in a bathing suit around boys. Wouldn't boys use this opportunity to harass or humilate girls

Special Topic in Photography
Posted Thursday October 27 2011, 6:28 pm
Okay, here is the thing, next semester is my last semester then I get my associates in applied science for photography. I have a minor background in psychology..and plan to go to a school like NYU for my master's in art therapy when I get older.. (if I ever reach that point..haha)
Anyways, my question is that.. I need one more photography elective and I am not fond of what is being offered to me next semester, and I rather do an independent study topic through the semester as an independent study, I just have to write a proposal and hand it in to my head professor for approval. I want to do something along with Art Therapy..but I feel I can't get that far, though I know Art Therapy is offered in a bachelors degree at a schoo...

College...what is required?
Posted Thursday October 27 2011, 4:59 pm
I was just curious whether colleges care that you do sports/clubs or anything like that (I'm in three clubs and community service). I play a little lacrosse, and I've done some cross country, but I was no good at long-distance running. I could probably get away with playing basketball just because I'm taller than everyone else. The problem is I think I missed tryouts...HELP!

I got lost going to class...
Posted Wednesday October 26 2011, 7:13 pm
I had been going to private school my entire life and when I got on the bus in the mornings for the first time on my second day at my new public school I got lost because I had no idea where to go. I ran through a bunch of hallways and then asked a teacher for help (I know who the AP Calculus teacher is now!). But when I found my way back to what looked familiar, I realized that I was late for History. I got to class five minutes late, but my teacher marked me absent and it showed up on my report card! I had been so confused! Is this fair?
