They say high school is the best years of your life...I BEG TO DIFFER!! I cant even begin tew describe how much i HATE school, theres not even any other word tht can come close to it. I just hate waking up early, i cant stand gym, i hate homework, the long hours, the projects tht take FOREVER, drama...UGH, i just hate it all!! Some ppl LIKE school, but me? Im different. My feelings for school r different. School depresses me, n its rlly rlly interfearing with my life x[. Its sunday..i shuld b not thinking about school but no matter wat i dew i just think "at least my gramma doesnt have to go to school, at least those ppl can stay out late n sleep in with no worries" ik i seem like im complaining, but im crying out fer an answer :( ive held this in too long n i guess u culd say im venting. It just mkes me a different person, i feel angry wen school is jus hours away, n then wen 6am comes i get so soo upset words jus cant explain it. Drop out doesnt come to my mind, but online school does x/ i jus hate this....why did school have to exsist?

" Hey, i know how ya feel. I totally used to feel that way when i was in highschool too. I'm 21 yrs old now and am happy that i will never have to repeat highschool ever again. In response to your thoughts about grandma not having to go to school...and people that are older...well, its kinda simple...we all already went through it. Just make it graduation and decide from there what is the right path for you. EVERYONE has responsibilities...no one has life easy. Yes i am happy i don't have to go to school anymore...but then again now its "shit i gotta work 40 hrs this week" there will still be the same stress, because if you plan on having a job/career there will be times you have to compromise. its really no different... its how life is. I used to laugh when people say "just wait till you're in the real world" just letting ya know...life doesn't get easier, it gets harder. Its just that adults have accepted this and know that its a part of life. don't worry, you'll get there. "

" wow, ._. it doesnt seem like life is all tht fun n great i mean, if my life's hard now tht must mean its rlly gonna suck later on n i thought itd b easier... maybe im wrong, but i heard tht as long as u have a job u love then u'll never work a day in ur life. I mean, life doesnt HAVE to b so hard n terrible or we'd b in Hell "

" hun. its ok, calm down... you make your own reality
we can choose to make it better, and Iknow that seems like b.s right now, but its true...
your profile says you're seventeen...if this is proof you only have one or two years left of high school right?
I know how you feel, I'm a senior and I BARELY made it through my junior year...I was having panic attacks, I had no friends and way too many hard classes in my schedule...it was hell
and it still is
just know, that I know a TON of adults that had the same experience, and went on to have Fantastic college experiences
you can get through it, and its worth it, take one day at a time, focus, get through what you have to get through, then stop stressing over it, do something you love to do, just make sure to stay sane
we're strong enough, we are put through these things to make us stronger, to test us....we will make it
and you can go on to do whatever you want...you CAN have a job that's not like the one described, you just have to work for it
you have to work really hard, just follow your intution..because its true...when you love to do something its not "work" anymore, it's passion
like I love reading and writing so I'm going to be an author or an English teacher (or both) because I love doing them
and yes I'll be stressed sometimes, and yes I'll have hard times
but I'll get through them because life is amazing and filled with love and gifts
we have to focus on the little things that make us happy right now

you're right: Life doesn't have to be terrible, life doesn't have to be anything YOU don't want it to be, you choose, you ARE in control in your emotions even if you can't change your circumstances
you'll be ok, I know it, you'll get through
and you'll have a good/magnificent/amazing life "

" I read one time that this guy did horrible in high school but really wanted to be a doctor. He went to college and did his best
, got help and became a doctor.
High school is stupid and stressful. I want to be a doc but my chemistry teacher told me that I should reconsider my careerer choice. Screw that. I think I we will do better in colleges. The people should be more mature,and more interesting classes.
