The Vent Thread

<p>Life just got a bit better! Officially a second semester senior now that midterms are over!</p>

<p>Socially…no one has thrown a party in the past two-three weeks. Blah, boring</p>

<p>The scratches in my glasses give me migraines.</p>

<p>My vent: did i really need to get a concussion now? Not only did i get to spend five hours in er, i haven’t even been cleared for school! Just what i need, missing a week of school before midterms as well a missing four ski races and a major freestyle competition. I’m not even supposed to be online now, it makes my head hurt. Oh and i forgot about the concussion symptoms, headache, balance issues, concentration problems, light sensitivity…
Sorry that was really pessimistic, but its good to vent.

<p>Social- My friend is driving me crazy. Ever since she joined Mock Trial, she has been a totally different person. At first, she started bragging about Mock Trial which I was totally fine with since I’m not into Mock Trial. Now, everything that we talk about has to be about her, or she somehow manages to digress the conversation to make it about her. She brags about everything, and thinks that she’s the smartest kid in school. She purposely sits with the kids that aren’t nearly as smart as her to make herself feel good. And then today, another friend was talking to me, and she just barged in between us to change the conversation to be about her. It’s okay when it’s just the two of us, but when there’s other people, that’s just downright rude.</p>

<p>It does feel good to vent.</p>

<p>I barely see my best friend anymore. Her mom is EXTREMELY strict to the point of insanity. She wasn’t even allowed to wear makeup, even nail polish, until she was 15, her mom chaperones her dates with her boyfriend…it’s ridiculous. Her mom basically forces her to stay home and study ALL the time. She has to have perfect grades in AP classes, even though her mom won’t let her consider any college accept the local community college followed by the local state university. So I didn’t see her for 2 months. Then I finally do see her, and she almost completely ignores me for her boyfriend. Yes, she’s under a lot of pressure. I completely get that. But she barely said 2 words to me and I’d been looking forward to seeing her so much. I’m trying to be understanding but I miss her so much.</p>

<p>Oh, and my ex-boyfriend is certifiably insane. I guess I could have it a lot worse in that he’s not furious at me, trying to kill me or acting like some creepy stalker, but he’s just being SO weird. He is ridiculously socially awkward. After basically acting like my boyfriend in all but name for months I finally asked him what the hell he was doing and when would he ask me out. His excuse was he couldn’t think of anywhere to take me. REALLY?? After the worst date ever he Facebook messaged me a month later to ask what was wrong. He tried to have the entire conversation online. I told him if he absolutely couldn’t wait to see me he could call me so he did. I broke up with him, he said NOTHING on the phone and then practically wrote an essay in a Facebook message, telling me he loved me. On Facebook. After I BROKE UP WITH HIM. </p>

<p>Now he’s moved on to trying to be my best friend in the world. For obvious reasons I’ve been trying to avoid him. So after he’s seen me for 3 hours, guess what, he sends me a Facebook message saying he thought I was avoiding him. I don’t think this guy is capable of saying ANYTHING to my face. I’d be perfectly happy never to see him again.</p>

<p>Feels good to get it off my chest!</p>

<p>The fact that a a 93 is an A. I’d have straight A’s except for maybe one B if our A;s were set at 89 like a bunch of other schools seem to be.</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>also, dem students, knowingly sick and contagious, coming to class anyways…ugh</p>

<p>Everybody rages about the AP physics teacher. But I don’t. He’s one of the best, and coolest people ever.</p>

<p>Now if only there were more teachers like him in other math and science courses. He actually encourages problem solving and doing problems that you were not taught how to do on tests, yet people think he is too hard. If only the other teachers were like that, the class competition would not only be easier for the math over English folks and we’d have people that could actually problem solve and not have to ask for help all of the time :)</p>

<p>MrLeeLee I feel you, bro!
I get ****ed at myself for procrastinating so much and not even doing some HW. I usually get at home at 3, then go to swim practice and get back at 7. By then, I think to myself “Alright, let’s finish this HW and actually get a normal amount of sleep (I also have to wake up at 6)”!
It never happens -_-
The internet just has my soul captive :P</p>

<p>“The fact that a a 93 is an A.”</p>

<p>I agree. At my school it’s 94.</p>

<p>Main issues:</p>

<p>My romantic life seems to never work out because 1. My mom is determined to keep me single, and 2 every girl I’m attracted to has a boyfriend. I can never let a relationship work out. I go through periods where I’m heavily infatuated with a girl, which usually lasts a month or two. By the time I’ve gotten it to a point where I could get that girl to go out with me, I’ve lost interest.</p>

<p>My grades are stressing me so much. Semester ends Friday and Idk what my grades are at this point.</p>

<p>At my school, too - an A is a 94%+.</p>

<p>And oh my god. Our district/state has the closed school system or whatever it’s called which forces students to go to the high school they live closest to. That would be fine, except the high school I live closest to is pathetic, as are all the nearby charter schools. I can’t even move, due to financial circumstances. </p>

<p>The school offers only one AP science class - biology - and it doesn’t help that I’m considering a Computer Science major. Oh, and AP bio only becomes available senior year. Also, we are not allowed to enroll in AP Calculus (or any calc, for that matter) before junior year, no matter how qualified we are. </p>

<p>Furthermore, we are forced to take at least 12 full year extracurriculars… Like, wow, I’m already so behind compared to my friends (who live in a different state). Why must you make it worse, f-cking district/high school?</p>

<p>I hate how competitive my grade is becoming. We used to all be such good friends, and now? Now everyone is willing to sabotage someone else just to get an EC position, or to get a better mark. I mean seriously? Making friends with the club execs just so that they will choose you as an exec and then ignoring all of your old friends who aren’t “useful” to you anymore? Sucking up to the people who have good marks so that you can use them for projects? Or even telling someone TO THEIR FACE that they aren’t good enough to be your friend?</p>

<p>I hate it. I don’t even know who are my real friends anymore.</p>

<p>Here’s my vent: I feel absolutely depressed every single day of my life because of school. I wake up everyday and the first I do is groan “UGHHH” because I am so sleep deprived that I need multiple alarms to wake me up out of stage 4 sleep. </p>

<p>I used to be a procrastinator and that hurt me a lot. I take six effing AP classes (no one in my school has taken as much!), do research at a prestigious uni, am the president of four clubs, etc and so procrastination + busy= NO EFFING SLEEP.</p>

<p>I fixed my procrastination for the most part, but I still end up sleeping at 3 because the amount of hw and tests I have is ridiculous. </p>

<p>On top of that I am stressed as f%$K by college acceptance, how to pay for college (why is it so hard to get scholarships?!!), grades, etc. Im not even ranked 1st in my class, which makes me so sad, it’s like a stab in my heart. </p>

<p>I hate school so much that I think about how many days are left until graduation MULTIPLE times a day. I dont know if I can handle any more of this. I want to give up. IM DONE. ASDFGHJKL SOMEONE SAVE MEEEEEEEEEE!!! :’( D: D: D: D:</p>

<p>You know you guys are going to be their genius bosses, right? :)</p>

<p>Not if we don’t devote our minds to money.</p>

<p>^ What if we just have a passion for leadership and creating products to help facilitate human connectivity and quality of life? eh?</p>

<p>After reading this, I’m feeling a whole lot better.</p>

<p>Life shouldn’t be as stressful as you guys make it for yourselves!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Life will be hard.</p>

<p>Hahaha, I haven’t slept since 2009. It’s all good! Just kidding. But, as of right now, I’m just so exhausted. I’m really happy that while I did well in school, made sure to participate in worthwhile EC’s/sports, and party/have fun on weekends…I never denoted any priority to sleep. I mean honestly, it sounds stupid but I have a really bad sleep schedule and have gotten sick because of. It before a few times.</p>
