yeah shit its not too bad I never do homework until the day its due normally, its just all the repetitive shit that pisses me off, and how fucking pointless high school is, and I could go on about the god damn drug testing forever. I just live for the weekend, pretty damn much just thinking about three things during class, girls/weed/and what the hell's going on this weekend:thumbsup:
I agree that high school, for the most part, is a joke. Your situation sucks, I think we can all feel for you on that. It's a complete pain in the ass to see people copy/paste shit and get good marks. But man.........6 hours on a project?? I'm not trying to be an asshole here, but that's not THAT much. Come on now, if 6 hours is that big of a deal to you, then have fun in college ;) Professors are generally much better at spotting who copy/paste's shit. Also, not very many people have the balls to actually try it. Getting caught plagiarizing in college is a much bigger deal then getting caught in HS. Everyone's been there though. Put the time and work in now, and it will pay off for you later. :thumbsup:
i really like highschool, just cuz its fun as fuck and i have a lot of friends... my whole highschool career has been me just fuckin around and doing good on tests cuz im a smart kid... i hate to say it but id be the kid that would spend 5 minutes on a project and get a really good grade on it, i wouldnt copy and paste it, but id be just above that.... i discovered that all of highschool is just busy work, i dont learn anything.... bfa said it the best, highschool is just one big party, have a good time in your highschool yrs, they could be the "days of our lives".... oh ya, last yr i ditched school for like 2 months, not evenkidding, i dunno how i didnt get dropped, but then i just showed up for my finals, and got decent grades on most of them, my grade was higher than a lot of peope who went and studied, its safe to say they were pissed... haha
Don't get too excited about college. In many ways it is really just an extension of high school. The only real differences are that you get a lot of opportunities to party since you're out on your own, the teachers don't really give a fuck if you come to class or not, and you have a shitload more work to get done. This can be a deadly combination, leading many students into a spiral of partying and neglecting schoolwork that they end up dropping out.
But for the rest of us, it means we don't get to have much of a life. Trying to juggle schoolwork, a job, a social life, free time to yourself, and sleep time is tough. Sleep will be the first thing you'll sacrifice, then your free time, then your social life.
You will do tons and tons of work and it will all seem very unrewarding, because the teachers expect a lot out of you and their expectations of what you can get done in how much time is often unrealistic. Many teachers forget that we have other classes to do work for, that we have jobs and lives outside of academics too. They will expect you to work all weekend long on doing their project or studying for their test, and expect you to put everything else on the back burner. They will try to monopolize your out-of-class time, and they will succeed.
It's bullshit. But if you want that diploma, you have to put up with it. You'll be forced to learn a lot of crap you really couldn't care less about, you'll be forced to do a lot of pointless work, and you'll be forced to consume unhealthy doses of caffeine to keep up with it all.
If yall had bad times during high school, that is your own damn fault. I went through HS like it was standing still. I left when I wanted, went when I wanted. Still graduated honors, still was homecoming king. All AP classes, all As. Rebel without a cause just didn't give a fawk. Rolled in at 10am, rolled out around 2:30.
My counselor came up to me late senior year and said "ya know, you are going to have to make up 45 actual hours since you.........ya know what? Nevermind."
Had a blast in HS. Everyday was just a tv-athon, pc-athon, women-athon. Left that horrid spot and went to the river to drink whenever we could gather a crowd.
oh, Hindsight is 20/20.
If I was back in HS, I would have nailed more girls than I did. Don't get me wrong, I did well, but I coulda had it all.
*sigh*
in the end, lazy assholes always get raped hardcore.
College is important, I don't think High School is, except for the pure essentials, such as math, english, science. I think it's annoying when people waste their youth in high school, working their ass off like it's the most important thing, and never have fun. My cousin is like this, and never has fun because of it. Live your youth. If you can get by in high school, and make it to college, that's good. I don't think people shouldn't go, but working your ass off constantly in high school is lame. Some people try WAY too hard, and that's what I'm talking about. Live your life in balance, and don't be pissed off when you work way too hard and find out that you got a bad grade. The fact is, you worked too hard, and had too high of expectations. The lazy pothead got a good grade, even though he plagiarized... but why should you care? Do what he does, and maybe you'll get a good grade too? Shit, dude, you need to relax, really. It's HIGH SCHOOL. Life goes beyond HIGH SCHOOL. Don't let teachers tell you otherwise. And yes, I agree education is important. But really, how much of what you did in this assignment did you already know? I remember in high school I knew a lot about what we had to do in assignments already, so I didn't waste time with them. To be honest, I learned very little from high school.Quote:

But, if you party like a rock star for 4 years, meet a shitload of people, get with girls, play sports, attend games, and have a positive outlook, you should enjoy yourself very much.
sorry for the dbl post but I just read this.
This is exactly what every kid that hates school needs to be told, its so much better to try and reach out and live it than sulk off in a corner and consider it all lame. Theyre the type that will be kicking themselves in the ass in a few years time
I went to high school in America for freshman year and like a week of sophmore before i moved back to London. It was kool, the people i met were the best part though. Now i'm going to college in London studying French, English language + Literature combined and Philosophy (best subject ever)
Yeah, so hopefully in a year i'll be going to the University in Amsterdam studying Philosophy. Hopefully...
speakin of highskool dealers im pickin up a sack today lol
Exactly.Quote:

theres always that thing called first impressoin thing. i had a teacher once, he was really funny, made alot of jokes that even highschool kids could relate to. well, i remember handing in a assignment maybe spending 1-2 hours on it? i got an 80% on it, and for the rest of the semester, no matter how much effort i put into something or how much time i put iinto it i still got the exact same mark. the same thing went for other people with lower marks, no matter what they could raise their mark. the mark wouldnt EXACTLY the same mark, or else what kind of teacher would that be, but it would be plus or minus a couple percentage, an average of the mark you got initially.
So how much work did you do? Don't you have to do work at least for AP classes at your school or is it just that easy. I know you're not learning calculus if you're partying all day.Quote:

Well, I thought about it, and realized that I got accepted into the college of my choice and into the program of my choice and that lazy fuck didn't get accepted to college. So I guess he won the battle, but I won the war.
lol, that's the spirit!
Not very much. My senior year we had a choice between AP chem and biology. All the girls (advanced class mind you) went to biology and guys went to chem. (no apparent reason, just kind of ended up like that)Quote:

And no, never did learn that fuckin calculus. If you saw my college calc grades, youd probably laugh. Thats why I went from Engineering to 'watered-down' business math.
Wouldn't change a minute of that time spent. Actually wish I was still back there....drinkin beer and rollin down to the river. *sigh*
K, so he's smarter than you..
Not in knowledge, but he knew what he had to do to get a good grade and he did it....
Good for him.
