US History is the stupidest class ever.
My laptop's resolution is so low that I can't see certain details of Lara Croft clearly enough.
I have a B in AP English and AP Bio.
I have only a 97 in honors precal.
I have too few homework (but they never get done since CC is so distracting).
L Lawliet and Yagami Light aren't real people.

I'm sick of screwing up at work. I know I've only been working there for 3 months 3Xs a week and it is my first ever job but everytime I do something wrong, no matter how small it is, I feel horrible. I feel like I'm a burden. I hate rushing home so I can get there on time. I hate coming home late and having to stay up super late with homework. I hate not having time for anything but sleep and work and homework. I'm so uncomfortable there and I dread going.
I hate physics: I don't understand it and it's only getting harder.
I'm freaking out about me ED app because I love my ED school

...I just want to curl up in ball, read Clockwork Orange, and watch The Office.

Ok, my turn-
I have to write my Extended Essay for the IB Diploma and my EE advisor is acting like a drama queen and trying to convince me to change my topic when I've already done all the research! Only because he says he isn't a 'botany person'...I mean- you're a freaking Biology teacher- so you can't just be a 'brain and nerve person' and not a 'botany person'. And that's only my EE.
Right now I am feeling absolutely murderous towards my:
English Teacher who thinks she's the smartest person on the planet and completely treats me like a retard and honestly- I don't even open my mouth in class except to answere every single question she asks coz my class is super dumb.
B teacher- she thinks she's got me all figured out- she goes like-"I have met people like you...obsessive and confused"- No no.
My college counselor- HATE her! she doesn't blink! and she is so incompetent and my stupid school has this policy that you can't do all your applications on your own and hence the college counselor's help is pretty much forced on me and she just manages to mess everything up

I bombed a d*mn English test today and my grade dropped to an 87%.

not the worst, but I'm mad as sndkfhsdkjfgskldfhk at myself.

math 101 is not meant to be taken in high school on a laggy screen where the teacher is at a different school being a total ***** and not slowing down even though everything she writes shows up 30-40 seconds after it is done.

inadequate assistance on applications from my school

too much pressure put on my shoulders as being the "one that actually made something of himself" from my school/family

various other things

school tomorrow had to miss today for medical reasons and now i have to try to catch up a lesson of algebra 3 (which usually means at least 2 sections).

dont have my syllabus so i dont know the hw assignment so i have to find time to do it before 3rd period

Quote:

Getting offended is a choice, people. Being born a certain way is not a choice, be it as X race or Y sexual orientation, but being oversensitive about it and choosing to get offended is your choice. I didn't offend you - you chose to be offended, annoyed, or angered by what I said, and you had the option of choosing differently. Haven't your parents ever told you that you can choose whether or not to let something get to you? Or you hated a teacher, but you knew it was your responsibility to learn the material? Haven't you anti-FoS hippie liberals heard of sticks and stones?

People need to learn to not get offended as easily, especially white people, who have a tendency to get offended on someone else's behalf. Just choose to disagree, acknowledge that I may be being offensive, but you are losing the battle if you get offended, because getting offended is a choice. I know some self-righteous fool will come along and tell me, "you don't know what its like, theres no way to not get offended when someone makes you feel like less than a human," NO one is making you feel less than a human. A word enters your feeble mind and you let it have the power to make you feel inferior. That's one of the principles Gandhi lived by. No one is forcing you to react a certain way by words. If there is physical force or harm involved, different story.

See, what you softskins have to understand is that A) there is a such thing as moral relativism - just because you manage to get offended by something doesnt mean its wrong in the universal eyes of the law/God/science/higherpower/entityofthisnation. Whatever you believe, America is a grand country because of Freedom of Speech. Go to Iran and have some dude rape you using sand as lubrication in a detainment cell because you spoke out against the government-censored media if you disagree. The fact is, FoS is greater than your feelings, no matter how important you think you are. And if you are offended, then there is only one person to blame - yourself, not me, because I didn't hold a gun to your head and say 'get offended', you said 'I feel like getting offended'.

That's my rant of the day. Seriously people, PC needs to go. Don't deny a man his steak because a baby cant chew it. And if you think that adhering to a moral compass is more important than freedom of speech -> sandy rape and torture in the desert. Thats what happens when you take away peoples rights to cater to another group.

...Amazing.

invoyable, don't you mean "epicly amazing"?

also, money sucks. i cant afford to apply to more than 4 or so schools because apparently we make too much for fee waivers but no where near enough to actually pay for the crap.

our bank account had 0.00 in it about 3 days ago. yeah its cool! i hate the system >.<

how can making 51k combined with 2 parents and a kid (plus 2 more for the majority of the year) be considered enough? not only that but my formerly alcoholic mother is still paying debts to some crap she did. plus my brother is paying some hospital bills and we are helping him. then we get 700 taken out of our account by some ******bags and so yeah IT SUCKS AND IM STRESSED 24/7 and that just makes me hate school more and im trying so hard to keep an A so i can go to a good college and get a good college and get my family out of this rut but it is too much pressure and i freaking hate it.

OMG...my mom's talking to my cat right now. I'm a tad bit scared.

collegeapp09 · 01-04-2009, 04:33 AM

My school sucks.

GPA is unweighted, rank is solely based on unweighted GPA. A 3.65 is like 65th percentile, vast majority of 3.95+ barely take any/more than one AP.

I've taken 9 AP/college and by the end of this year, it will be 13. However, my rank is destroyed because I've actually decided to challenge myself to the fullest.
