NovaKing BlackHawkGS NovaKing BlackHawkGS That last part is something I've been thinking about too. I'm really looking forward to summer... but are things going to be much different? I'm still going to be super busy with two different jobs and a little running. And a lot of my friends will probably be going on trips, off to college, etc... Meh. I don't really feel distant from my friends... or, at least, my current friends. I do feel somewhat distant from my old friends and it's sort of depressing. On another note, I think I'm going insane. I'll explain later. ... well, I have a test tomorrow in AP Stats that's worth 20% of my grade. And I'm probably not going to study tonight and inevitably fail. I really wish I had some ******** idea of what I want to do in life. It sounds, to me, like you never felt like giving AP statistics much attention in the first place. If so, then why did you take the course in the first place? Maybe, it would have been wiser to have done what you liked, or was willing to try at. Maybe you can figure out what you want to do with your life, if you give a little thought towards what your willing to enjoy. I did like AP Stats at first. Well, I've never really been a math freak... but it was a required class I'll have to take in college anyways if I want to pursue my major. But unfortunately, the teacher is crap. Great guy and all, but he talks way too fast and says things like "This isn't hard at all" constantly. Yes, it may not be hard to you, but the rest of us don't know what the hell you're talking about! Thus, me and about the rest of the class didn't study and we're all hoping we managed to scrape by with at least a 35% (the passing grade) since we all agreed that the test raped us... As for my life... I don't know what I enjoy. To be quite honest. I have thought about; I spend usually one to two hours before I fall asleep just sitting in my bed thinking about things. But really, I haven't the faintest idea of what I would enjoy doing for the rest of my life. you could have studied out of your text book, that's where the teacher is teaching out of after all, or you could have taken time out of your day to ask the teacher for assistance with what you didn't understand, you could have asked kids who understood. Blame yourself, not others, for the others are not here to defend themselves, and you will be much easier on yourself then you are on the person your placing blame on. More importantly, you are the one who prevents and fixes problems, not others, thus you are the only one who can really be held responsible for either action or inaction. If you don't know what you enjoy I suggest trying different things out until you find something that you do enjoy. There's lots of stuff to do you know. There's music and art for starters, then there's writing, or sports, or any scholarly discipline. If you wanted you could occupy yourself endlessly with the science there is out there, or with the math. You could be an investigator, solving crimes and unraveling the criminal mind, or you could be an explorer of the world and the mind. There's a lot you could do and if you don't know what you enjoy it only means one thing and that's that you aren't looking hard enough.
Is it really necessary to critique other's lives and the way in which they ppersue them, Nova? Keep it to yourself, before you offend someone. It is none of your, or anyone for that matter, busniess on how Hawk should have done this and should have done that. Do no make an assumption he did something wrong, just because a class is tough, or he has lost heart for it. |

I made no assumptions here, except that Hawk spoke honestly about his life. If he protests let him do so.
[I don't have 20K crying oh well the snake hawk gave me will have to do for now @ hawk: thanks again, by the way.] |

Eh, I feel sick right now so I'll try to be brief... though I probably won't be...:
I wasn't really placing all the blame on the math teacher. I recognize that I'm a complete lazy-a** (a damn sexy one too) and that I didn't do much to help. But, considering we're still at the high school level, I would expect the teacher to do a little better overall. And A- I can't study out of textbooks (they drive me nuts) and B- I did go in to talk to him, but, as usual, he pretty much explained it the same way he did in class; really fast and incomprehensible. I eventually just left since he was making my brain hurt sweatdrop
And my life, I actually do explore a lot. A few weeks ago I was making an RPG game on my PC; a week after I wrote some music on my mom's iMac; and I'm always writing of course.
But I just don't have the time to really go out and do a full life-meaning search thing. And I'm fine with that. I have plenty of good things going on. Got a duet in the jazz band concert, a good position in the 4x800 team for one of the best teams in the nation, and a steady job. None of which are things I want to do for the rest of my life, but they're fun and enjoyable for the time being.
I'll be using college to really start exploring things (IU is massive.) I was just complaining now since this is sort of the turning point in most people lives (end of high school) and they can usually at least have an idea of where they're going.
EDIT: Speaking of getting out of high school, I will be sooo happy to get out of here. The amount of ignorance and disrespect in this school is unbelievable (my teachers have said our class is the worse so far, but the freshman class is pretty bad too.)
