If there's anything you learn from High School, it's this.

Also in high school you learn high comes first

It doesn't matter how much time and effort you put into something, it isn't good enough.

Example: A while back I spent 6 hours doing a project. I even missed going to the 300 premier. 6 hours doing a project that I knew I was going to get at least a 90%. I made people read it, they loved it. I made other teachers read it, they said it was great.

I ended up getting 75% on it.

But it isn't the mark I got that pisses me off. It's the fact that there are always those lazy fucks who don't give a fuck about school and think it's one big joke. Listen folks, I don't care what you think, education IS important.

This laid back, lazy, stupid waste of semen pothead (the kind that is always fucking stoned and spends 75% of his money on weed) copy and pastes his entire project, hands it in and gets 91% on it. Just by reading it I could tell he plagiarized it. I asked him and he said, "pff, yeah dude. Took me 5 minutes to do it, man."

boo hoo, friggin crybaby... i plagiarize my shit and dont take school seriously and im in 2 honors classes

don't make shitty projects

:thumbsup:

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*

[Emmm]

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.
