Moms Going Crazy

[delusionsofNORMALity]

im not that bad...im not failing out i get like bs and cs and the occasional d, but what pisses off my mom is that i can be a straight a student...but i definitely plan on going 2 college and all that

c's and d's won't cut it. even i made better grades than that and i never had any intention of going to college.

I did knot go too skool and looke at me now... I am a retard...

I just want to say this. When I was 16, I quit school. I didn't get along with the kids, the teachers, and I can tell you this, it was the biggest mistake I ever made. For one, I didn't graduate until I was 22. I was too old to go to public school so I had to go to a college, at $400 per course. What, it's like $125 these days for all your books and classes in school?

It cost me a ton of cash in the end, from my own pocket. You quit school, don't expect mom and dad to pay for your future schooling so you get somehwere. I worked shitty jobs for 6yrs. You can't get any other jobs other than hard, grunt work for shitty pay. Breaking your back for $10/hr while others have cushy jobs with an education for triple that.

Not to forget when an employer asks if I have a diploma, and I give him an equiv. to. Then the questions come out, "why didn't you finish high school, etc?" then they think you may have some issues because it took you until age 22 to do it.

What I'm saying is, I hated high school, and I wish I would have just put up with it and finished. Take it from someone who messed up but managed to recoupe, don't quit school! H.S is only 3 or 4 years of your life. It will pay off in the end.

You had to pay all that money to get your highschool from a college NCFY? That's kinda weird man, because I'm in B.C. and upgrading my highschool biology and math through the college right now, I'm 21, and all they needed was a $30 registration fee for the whole thing. What province did you take this in?

420purpHAZE420, if you want to suceed in school, college, and in the rest of life, you have to find the drive within yourself. You can't just "get through" anything and expect more than lame results, you have to WANT to succeed at what you're doing. If you really want to get somewhere in life, simply devote yourself to that goal and embrace what you inevitably have to do with all your being. So long as you keep pushing the direction of your life down the right path, and never stop pushing, you can suceed. The journey is what really matters, not the goal at the end.

I don't think your mom is wrong, you are.

listen to mr.d, dog.
the guy knows what hes talking about.

btw, fuck school.
im not allowed in school until im done talking with my shrink, which will be when im off of probation.
i direct my own learning, i learn what i want to learn, not what some bullshit school teaches with their biased fucking education.
maybe the reason you dont like school is because none of your subjects are appealing to you, talk to your guidance councellor(sp?)

You know i use to be like you...but i finally realized that if my ass dont grow up and start doing things for myself and my future im gonna be a low life good for nothing loser. and my family is pretty much broken - my brother dropped out, tried ot get his GED twice but was too lazy to go 3 days a week for school...night school.. and my dad works at mcdonalds. my mom..still unemployed(dont see her much, and my bro 'lives with her' but not really)
and i want to be the first in my family to be succesful. but anyways a couple months ago i was faking sick whever i could, failing all my classes. just coming into class and doing nothing.
now im doing much better...and lol somewhat i feel smarter
see hear i worked at mc'daonalds my self for about a year. sooo..jobs suck. (least fast food) and im influenced to go to medical school and stuff... anyways.


Moral of the story: Grow up- Education is Important

Dude, you need to get your self to school as much as possible. I regret not going to school all the time. Belive me it does catch up with you when you leave and you cant get a decent job and the money sucks.. Yes you could turn to selling drugs but that would be pointless when you can do something about it now while you can.. Your also causing your mom alot of shit that she probley dosent need.. You are the ONLY ONE who can sort this out.. so do it man...

GOOD LUCK
