School Life

Well to say the least I figured I should update you all on how my life at school is opposed to homeschooling. Basically school can be lethal or helpful. Like anything else, it is up to what you choose. In the beginning it was EXTREMELY hard to pop out of my shy mode and force myself into talking to people. The hard part specifically was that many of the people there, come from the same school and tend to stay in the same groups they have had since Pre-K. Not that I blame them or anything, I would SOOOO do the same, but for some "groups" it was hard to try to put myself in it. I didn't want to be rude and shove my way in. Nearly 100% of the time, girls were so willing to let me in and help me out. Saint James shows a true spirit and attitude of help and love. It gives hope :).

However, I do miss homeschooling. Sometimes; very much. I miss sleeping in and not worrying about a tardy. Late nights can really get to you, especially the following day. When you are in biology and your head is in Jonas Brothers obsession and your stomach is screaming; you really don't want to be there. Most of All, TEACHERS BEING UNREASONABLE. That has driven me CRAZY. Our principal treats us like we should always have something to be ashamed of and we are never doing things "right". My algebra teacher is VERY intimidating, and hard to be around. But you know, WAY Enough Negativity. I love school and my friends, and most of my teachers are ok.

Ok YES I did delete the "Freshmen Boys" part of this post. As I was posting I was frustrated with the amount of immaturity some of them had, causing me to get extra homework in some classes. They really are not as bad as I sad. I was venting in the form of bashing them. And now I feel bad. So, please ignore that last part of this post, I will say they do get insane sometimes but hey, here's my traditional response "They're boys!" What can you do?

Much Love and Holiday Cheer!
