I'm depressed that summer is ending and I hate the thought of going to school everyday over and over...help?

Question

My school is really demanding in terms of academics and extracurricular activities. its like the 5th best school in the USA. Its not that I don't have friends, I have a few awesome friends who I hang out with during the summer and some weekends. But its just I hate the really s****. people there, the environment is disgusting and the teachers are just as conceited as the students and they are b******s! We get several tests every week and its really really annoying. Recalling my last year as a freshman makes me feel even worse. Its impossible for me to transfer because my parents wont let me (but they are awesome I love them) and this feeling of disgust is really getting to me. I'm going to be a sophomore in 2 days, when school starts. Does anyone have any words of encouragement? Or any advice? I'd love to hear your input, thanks!

Answer 1

Hey I'm already a Sophomore!! But you're situation sucks

just try to make the best of things.

And if you really don't like your school environment, then convince your parents to let you transfer. School is supposed to be a comfortable place for you to learn in.

hope i helped!! =]

Answer 2

Think of how depressed you'll be if you don't finish school and end up spending 45 years putting k***s on ovens in a factory.

Thank your lucky stars that you're in a situation where you can have the best education possible.

Who knows, if you do ok, you might end up one of the lucky few who end up doing what they want for a living.

I know when you're at school, the end seems an eternity away, but just think about that 45 years in the workforce.

Good luck.

Answer 3

you should understand though that your school just wants to keep up their good name

but i personally would just "get with the program"

i know it may be full of disgust... but there really isn't anything you can do besides just dealing with it and try to make a good time out of it

Answer 5

I get how you feel. I'm in the exact same situation. Try to be optimistic about things, maybe they'll look up. My freshmen year sucked, I hope this year is better.

Oh, and I added you as a contact if that's okay with you. I could use a friend in the same situation, makes things easier to put up with =)

Answer 6

I know how you feel because my school holds real high standards and is ranked high in one of the best schools in the US as well. I started like 2 weeks ago. Here is what I reccomend for you.

1. STUDY so you won't fall behind.

2.GET HELP EARLY Teachers will see this and if they see you strugglnig chances are if you come clsoe to failing an exam they amy give you that one point you need because they see you are serious about your work.

3. Ignore snobs trust me on this. Focus on your studies/

4. Remeber it all will past and if you busted your tail all year those last few days of your 10th grade year will come like a breeze.

5. Stay away from the drama. It's not worth it.

6. Turn in homework etc.

7. Talk to your consuler about future plans and what classes you need to take for next year.

Best of luck!

Answer 7

How you perceive things is how they will be.  Find something you do like about school and focus on that.  Perhaps hanging out with friends, homecoming, school activities, a class you really like, etc.  This is something you have to go through anyways, you need to learn to deal with it otherwise you'll never be happy.  It is like work, you can't always like everyone and everything, but are you going to quit a job everytime something you don't like arises?
