I went through a lot of hell in high school; few psyche wards, couple mental hosiptals and two boot camp/rehabilitation programs. But when I finished it and looked back it was probably THE BEST time of my life. Id kill to be back in 10th grade again even if i had to do rehab again just the shit we got into and all the fun we had, it would be worth it to do it over and over It sucks while your in it but for me and most of the people I hang around with; it was the best time we ever had And Mellow has a good point, working makes school look like a breeze, work SUCKS!!! try to find something you will enjoy or something that pays very well with not so much actual work load, if you do something you dont like - your life will be shit =\ my mom doesnt like her job, neither does my dad or my step parents lol they are all miserable cuz they wasted a lot of time on these jobs that make them extremely stressed out and mean people lol
