Argh...
I feel as if I'm stuck in a rut.
I'm ready to move forward - to explode into the future! Yet, I'm still held back by all these things that seem truly and utterly trivial to me. Why should I have to the SAT, the ACT and the SAT-II Subject Tests? They're not real life - I'm not going to have to fill in a fucking bubble as a doctor. Or as a sociology professor. Or as anything I want to be or do.
And why do I have to take these moronic AP courses? They're not teaching me anything valuable or new per se. Essentially, all I've been learning to do is to take a fucking test. How is that going to service me latter in life?
I'm ready for college. I'm ready for some menial job in college. I'm ready for a serious relationship. I'm ready for life! I don't want to deal with the tribulations of high school. I don't care who the fuck got knocked up, and I most certainly could care less about how he cheated on her with so and so and ended up getting mono. It's trivial and fucking annoying.
I just want high school to be over...

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming swimming... what do we do? We swim...
That's the way it goes. Your parents prepare you for school prepares you for work prepares you for retirement and then you die.
3 more months. Just keep telling yourself that.
I KNOW! ugh..everything
I KNOW! ugh..everything feels so meaningless. and we're SO capable of more with our knowledge and potential already, but we're still stuck with this..leash. I'm so thankful I'll never have to go to high school again in around 60 days ... :D optimism
I understand this...
I've had the same problems before.
But, since you're already stuck here for another 3 months, I think you should enjoy them.
Because, I must say I am truly excited for college and adulthood and everything in the rest of my life and all that stuff. But I can wait.
If I spend all of my time focusing on getting to college, can't wait to get to college, everything I do is just waiting for college, then that's not enjoying the time I have NOW.
Focusing on something like college will not make it come any faster, and when I do get there, I may look back and see that I wasted all of my high school years just waiting for college. So go out and enjoy yourself instead of waiting for the future. It will come when it comes.

what loreonpravus, only 3 more months then POOF no more high school :D hm, but then there is college... -__-
life in the box of high school....
im only a sophore... but i share the feelings u do. its a box. of people. and pointless work for things we may or may not remember afterwards. i had to learn about molecular structures and other stuff i dont remember. the thing is, im gonna be an "F"ing artist!! What the "F"?! Still, thank whatever higher power you believe in. at least you only have a few months left. thats a plus. Just try to make the best of the worst. It'll all be over soon... (but not for me) a psychotic pencilist, moe
Three more months 'till
Three more months 'till what? I'll still be in high school - I'll be a senior. I'm a junior right now.
But, if I we're a senior right now, I'd be fucking all excited to be over with this worthless institution. I'd be going to U Pitt, Carnegie Melon, Dartmouth, Chatham or somewhere the hell away from Vermont in six months! It'd be heaven...! I mean, don't get me wrong, I freaking love Vermont like nothing else, but there's only so much one can do in a "metropolitan area" encompassing 200,000 people.
Honestly, I need room to grow, and to explore. I just need to meet new people! I know everyone in my school...! And they all wear on your after a while.
Argh...! //grumble, grumble...
Hear! Hear!
I wholeheartedly agree. I got way too much of that crap in middle school, so it was nice not having to deal with it as much homeschooling high school. But now I'm going to this small private school two afternoons a week for two classes and there is an insane amount of drama, it's so stupid.
You're right, it's petty, meaningless stuff that won't matter a year from now. High school, whatever the great intentions behind it were, has consistently degraded to the point we are at now. It's pointless in soo many ways and a waste of time. There are better ways to learn than classes all about test-taking, standardized tests, and annoying gossip about the jonas brothers and the sophmore dating the senior.
High school always seems to be holding us back, doesn't it? Ugh, we just have to make it to graduation, less than three months for me.
Hang in there.
