Whats the point Of school?
Im have about 4 weeks left of school of my freshman year in highschool and frankly i just am having trouble understandind what the point of school is at this point. I am in the highest levels in all my classes and get straight As usually above the 95 mark. I work hard for these grades. I just am starting to wonder why I work so hard. I never rest. I never sleep. I never do anything I want to do. I can never hang out with friends. I do extra curriculums at school which i really enjoy but frankly they make life even harder for me in the fact that i get home later each day which will have me staying up even later. Adults are always saying enjoy your childhood while you have it. What childhood do I have? One of homework studying and stress that allows me to basically not have a life? So lets say i continue to study. Continue to work hard and get good grades and go to a good college. Well if i go to a good college does it garentee a better job then if i go to maybe a smaller less known school? I feel like that answer is no. So I ask again why am i wasting my time? I have no motivation anymore and quite frankly im sick of my life being overwhelmed with the frivilous things we are taught in school. If school is suppose to give you a foundation for learning shouldnt you in highschool start to pick classes you are more interested in? Like why do i need to learn about the plants reproductive systems ( meaning every part labeled and be able to explain in a 3 paragraph essay) if i wanted to be a mathematician? Obviously i feel i should have a basis for science but i think i learned enough by 8th grade and if i was really that interested why couldnt i pick that class to take rather than having to take it. Im just sick of everyone sayin these are the best years of your lives and do well in school while society and the will to be better accedemically is actually stressing the younger generations out and actually making it harder for them to just enjoy life sometimes

2 AnswersLyrics10 years agoAdvice for picking highschools?
I'm in 8th grade and I have to pick whether or not I want to go to a private catholic school or the town's public highschool. a fair amount of my friends are going to both highschool. I love acting so i figured go the highschool with the better theater program but it looks like they are about the same. here are the pros of and cons of both highschools. at the catholic highschool theres more order and i like the idea of uniforms. its a nicer building and the kids there are smarter and more supportive of one another there really aren't cliches. my neighbor is going there and hes like my brother so that would def be a pro. my cons are that since you have to apply to the catholic school i feel like there is going to be more of the same time of person if you know what i mean. at my school now i am friends with nerds, popular kids, emos, goths, EVERYONE, and i like being friends with so many groups because it brings a variety into my life each person is unique and im not sure whether or not the catholic school would have that variety of kids. also the public school would have people i know and am familar with along with others from different grades. the classes at both school are at the same acedemic quality so i wnt be getting a better education in one and a worse in the other it will be about the same.

since i know im 13 years old i have obviously had meat before so im taking it slow. i will be an lacto ovo vegartarian, i know that i really need to be able to eat eggs and dairy products to make it easier for my mom to make dinner every night and as i get older i'll start to narrow down on those sort of things. I don't want to eat gelatin though. the way it is made disgusts me, like the was you kill and animal to eat it. there is n reason for the animal to die. in my opinon of course. i know some dairy products have animal in them so my moms getting the vegetarian cheeses for me. umm. i wanted to know for starters what foods i should start to avoid to avoid eating gelatin. i know marshmellows, jello, etc. i just need a basis, and ill start to check the labels on food. thanks :)

ok i was going to this camp for about 4 weeks and it just ended. the camp has this petting zoo, during this time i befriended this little baby pig simon, he's my picture for the asky thingy haha, but anyway i really bonded with this little pig, i was his trainer and i fed him and cleaned his cage, i didn't even need to get him on a leash when we walked him around camp he just followed me, he was the sweetest thing. the problem is that camp ended and im having a really hard time getting on without him,the soonest i could see him is in like 5 years if i ever wanted to again when i am old enough to be a counselor at this camp because i'm to old now): his owner candy who owns all the other animals at the petting zoo, e-mails me pics all the time, and says he misses me. i miss him so much. should i get a pet pig? i know how to take care of one now, and i think it would help a lot in the absence of my other piggy, i have no idea what to do, thanks.
