And Again...

So today I was super sick of school. My Junior year is almost over and I still find myself dragging myself out of bed, everyday, and wishing it was Friday!

-LEAH-

Have you ever felt stuck in life? Like you don't know what else to do besides what you are doing now? Things seem to never turn out the way I want and are definitely not going as planned. Is this just the way we grow up?

Recently, I have felt like I can't do anything right. My grades have fallen from term one, I can't seem to please everyone or even myself. My parents are always finding something to yell at me about and stress builds up every day from the dance/drama group I co-lead at my church.

Why are the teenage years so hard?!?

Day after day, we all come to school. We sit in a desk for 7 hours and get lectured. People crowd the halls; talking and making-out, feeling like you have to break through a brick wall just to get through to your next class. We all dread the last class, the last 20 minuets we are required to be sitting in our seats and listening to the teacher speak to blank faces. Soon we all see the person next to you or maybe even yourself, beginning to slouch down in the desk chair, maybe nodding thier head a little and then find that sleeping is Heaven compared to school.

Why do we NEED to go to school? Wouldn't a teenager's time, easily be spent somewhere else?


Don't get me wrong, education is important. I think that it is important to have a good education to suceed in life, but that is just my opinion. But school has become a drag, a norm in life that many dread.

How can school become better; easier to "do" ? I think this has been a question that many have tried to answer for many years.
