This next school year, I FINALLY convinced my parents to let me try independent schooling with Keystone. They're making me sign a contract with loads of rules, but they said the only reason they're letting me try this is because I've always been on top of my school/homework. Gosh, like it was actually hard.
I'm so glad I got out of my public high school; the kids are so negative there that it kind of drags you down. Also, they have the perfect example of a "one size fits all" curriculum there. It was a very disappointing experience, and I lost all interest in getting A's and keeping up in school. I got all A's the first semester, but the next one, I only managed to come out with three A's. I was mad at myself, but I didn't get those bad grades because of my lack of understanding, it was because I lacked the motivation to keep going. My friends were slackers, and they taunted me for working so hard. Gosh, and people wonder why I slacked off a bit? I'm hoping this "school year" will be better than last year; however, I can't imagine it being worse. Statistics: Posted by ottbluver — Mon Aug 13, 2007 7:47 am
