this week is the lsat week before christmas holidays, which will last only 2 weeks...but oh well, a holiday is a holiday :)

Re: school sucks
 

i hate the last week before winter break beacuse theirs finals and there boring

Re: school sucks
 

without school, you dont have a future.

having said that, it isnt the end-all be-all of a youth's life. one thing I picked up is that learning is more important than the actual marks you get. once you get into college, nobody gives 2 craps about what your average was in grade 11. it's all about learning practical skills that you'll use throughout your career...and you'll find something you're interested in and studying THAT field becomes interesting. trust me :)

Re: school sucks
 

whats with people saying schools important theres only tow class im going to need in life computer tech 2 and Administration of justice

Re: school sucks
 

Without school you cant take those classes can you?


School must be important if you NEED to take classes at it.

Re: school sucks
 

Tommorow is my last exam and then it's Christmas Break from there :)

Re: school sucks
 

I have 2 more finals to go... I wrote a midterm today, it was a joke... GO SCHOOL GO!!


On a side note, my buddy opted not to go to university or college, and is making 22.50 an hour at some insurance company.. he is rolling in the dough at the moment.

Re: school sucks
 

I think you also need an English class.


/Had to say it. I'm only sort of kidding.

Re: school sucks
 

Why would you be kidding?

Along with chivalry, proper grammar is dead (which sucks because i'm chivalrous and appreciate proper grammar).

Re: school sucks
 

I'm a stickler for gramamr. Everything I do on the computer is perfect, or else it isnt writte by me.

As for me, high school was ok, but I absolutely love University to death.

Re: school sucks
 

High School is really just college preperation. High School is supposed to be about highly social situations. Although, I think nowadays the concept of what High School should be about gets lost with expectations and colleges. Not many people excel in every area, and that's what high school is about. You're supposed to find out if you suck at math or if you're the best English student ever, that's the point.

High School seems pointless at times, because a lot of it is. But it's really a great introduction to life in general, and you're probably going to look back in 10 years, and be much happier learning you weren't good at this in high school, and you didn't spend x amount of money attempting to learn that in college.

I don't know.......I have finals coming up so I'm kind of mellow........but I don't mind high school all that much.

Re: school sucks
 

High school is crap. Social behaviour, moral values and all that *important* stuff is taught at a much younger age. I'm not saying that parts of highschool arent needed, because some are...but more than 60% of it, in my mind, is pure time-wasting garbage.

Grade school and post-secondary education is where it's at! :)

Re: school sucks
 

High school is easy! I do agree that it is mainly college preparation though. By the time I graduate, I would have already taken 6 College level or AP or whatever you want to call it classes. Hopefully (probably), I'll pass all the exams so I wont need to dish out the money to take those classes in Uni :D

Re: school sucks
 

*Reads it*

*Hopes it was on prupose...or else it is strikingly ironic*

Re: school sucks
 

I loved college, I wish I was there now taking finals.. But eh.. I feel your pain deathgirl

Re: school sucks
 

According to urbandictionary.com, the majority of students agree with you, deathgirl. Let's take a look at the most popular definition, shall we?

And the list goes on, it's hilarious.

Re: school sucks
 

High school was alright for me... I mean, there were times when I just want to crawl into a hole and die but overall it's been fairly alright.

Uni is great too and will be tons better if I weren't such a major procrastinator.

Enjoy your school days while they last... ;)

Re: school sucks
 

I stayed up until 5:11 this morning finishing a stupid art project and then I slept for two hours before having to go to school. I'm pretty tired now. Regardless of my energy, this darn GameTavern never stops beckoning me. Being a member here for so long is like wearing the One Ring. I can't ever escape GT's pull.

This reminds me of something else I've been meaning to say: Unless you have local friends on here with you, we really have no way of knowing if any of us is ever been involved in an accident or is killed. Which is kind of sad. So I want to clarify for myself and other people can state their little system here too if they want. Anyway, I just want to let people know that if I ever decided to leave GT, quit, or go away for a long time, I would either make a thread here or inform another member via MSN or AIM. So if for any reason, I suddenly stopped showing up without any notice, assume that something has happened to me. Unfortunatley, I don't really have any contacts here who could notify you. But Neo and some older staff employees might remember geist. He used to work here and even though we aren't friends, his mom and my mom are so if you became curious about my undeclared absence, you could try contacting him. So in conclusion, if I ever leave, someone will know about it, otherwise, send for help! ;)

Re: school sucks
 

Of course school sucks, but it's important it's a major part of your lives. I'm however done with school and college it was a major part of my life.

You make friends in school, and you hang with your friends in school. You also have something to do all day.

I dunno but when I had sick days or even days off... I really couldn't find much to do but to hang out on the porch with my friends. That and I had no money to do anything. Now that school is over and I've found a good job... I can actually do things.

Re: school sucks
 

I know i've talked about this in here before (probably around the last time I had an exam for this teacher) but my French teacher is a complete b*tch! Ugh, I can't express it enough.

Okay, venting done.... Continue your conversation while I go to a corner and cry

Re: school sucks
 

Teacher's are made to be bitches... thats how' you learn things.

Re: school sucks
 

this post makes me sad

Re: school sucks
 

Research papers on topics that I don't care about make me sad...

Re: school sucks
 

amen

Re: school sucks
 

Out of my 2 favourite teachers, one was an absolute bastard to those who talked back to him, and the other was too nice to those who talked back to him.

If I was a teacher, I would try to have a FUN learning environment... But definitely put some kids in place if they are repetitively acting up.

Re: school sucks
 

Is there such a thing as an interesting research paper? ;)

Re: school sucks
 

You just love to cause trouble huh?

Well, the answer to your question is yes. I am going to be doing a research paper next semester for graduation and I am looking forward to it. It is a topic I am interested in.

And I did cancer research in high school, that was pretty interesting. It had its down sides too though.

Re: school sucks
 

I have written many in my day.

Re: school sucks
 

Question for the Group:

Are you motivated to do well in school? If yes, is it because you:

• simply like to learn
• want to be successful
• a bit of both

Feel free to explain your stance if you want.

Re: school sucks
 

I used to motivated to do well in school simply because i liked to learn.

Recently that has changed to a desire to be successful in college so that I can get a job.

Re: school sucks
 

Coulnd't have said it better myself. The better the grades I get here in university, the more prospects I have for my coop placement next year. And once I get a coop placement, and I keep up the good work, I'll be rolling in the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Re: school sucks
 

I'm not a great student

I dont work hard, per se, as in number of hours reading/studying/writing. But I learn unlike most people. I think both logically and creatively, read over the facts and then pages of information just sorta become second nature to me, without re-reading them or spending much time thinking about them. At the same time, I have a poor work ethic, and poor stick-to-it-ive-ness. I can dominate class discussion or (when I dont read a damn thing) have no idea what's going on. I also miss a lot of classes.

But I am smart. I was born with smarts. I have a very confident outlook on my abilities to learn and soak up knowledge in things that interest me. I learned the sport of football in one year better than a lot of middle aged people who watch it all their life. I pitched a marketing idea to the company my father has quite a bit of leverage with, and they liked it. I've designed a couple company logos but never took art class. Things like that.

Once I get a job in a field I like, I think I'm going to move up the corporate ladder a lot quicker than most do...ambition, and the inner perfectionist will drive me.

Re: school sucks
 

I work ethic the first 3/4 of this past semester were horrible... But I really picked up up late November.. which was great timing, because for my exams, the heavily test the most recent stuff they teach you, because it is like a combination of every thing they taught to you all year.

Re: school sucks
 

I work hard and do well in school for both my love of learning and what an education can bring me in the future. Right now, I'm just trying to do my best so I can get some scholarships in order to pay for University in a couple years.

Re: school sucks

Re: school sucks
 

Wow, my brain hurt reading that :(
