As I've been told by my teachers:

"You might not like school now. But when you graduate and learn how harsh it is in the real world, and how tough it is to get a job and earn money to support yourself, you're going to WANT to go back to school."

..and they were right. I sometimes long to be back in the school years. I never thought how boring it would be to do nothing but stay at home and use the computer, watch tv, or play video games all day long.

Well, for the most part, I agree with you, DH. But that still will not stop me from dreading listening to my teachers drone on and on like Charlie Brown's schoolteacher. <_<

I'm home-schooled, so I don't have to go through the "second hell" known as [public] school around these parts. It may be a bit boring at times, but for me, Algebra and Chemistry can be fun at times, as well as those reading assignments in English.

At least it gives ya something to do.

But yeah there are things about school I didn't like myself. I hated math class. I never got good grades in that class.

It's not the work I hate so much, it's the socialization that is required. When I walk down the halls, I hear some sorta sick remark here and some idiot swearing there. It get's REALLY old! My god! Don't they have any more words in their vocabulary? :rolleyes:

So that would make teachers like Adam "would be devils" and school interns like me "part time would be devils"? :lol
Get a grip people. School often is a nasty piece of work, but honestly, what would each of you become without some basic education? At university the amount of work is larger but a lot more tolerable for me due to the fact that most of the time I study what I WANT to study evading my least popular subjects such as math.

It is time we grow used to the idea that we don't live on a planet with us as the only inhabitant. It is also time to grow used to the idea that not all of our planet's inhabitants are kind people and that not all of them share our views or interests. Most important of all we have to grow used to the realization that not sharing our views or interests does NOT make people bad people. But to grow used to all that we have to learn it and to learn it we have to be around people. What atrophied beings are we going to be if the we abandon all attempts to acquire some social competence?

I guess you don't have to try to socialize with the people I have to. Literally 50% or more of my school doesn't speak English! I guess I'll be learning Spanish pretty quickly. :blink:

Well, school is now over for me today. Yay
Now I have two days of freetime. =P

There are days, where you just want to stay at home, doing nothing.
But then sometimes you want to go to school.
...
It's really lonely here at home. :unsure:
