i wish i lived in queensland..that way i'd go straight up to year 11 + theme parks!

Grade 6 was the best school year ever all we did was play bootball and jump out windows. year 7 was crap same with year 8 and year 9 was pretty awsome.

The reason im dreading it is the subjects i have
PE, work ed, surf sand and sea (hopefully i can move out of that and go into year 11 histoy), general english (alot of people will play up in that subject), music (good thing) and finally advanced maths. Semester 2 should be better though.

The main reason would be having to catch the bus, school finishes at 3pm and i get home at 4pm school starts at 8:47am i get there at 8am

Maybe i should go for a run like macroman and oreos

School is a perfect opportunity to improve your life. You will learn life skills needed to succeed in jobs. Also Middle or Primary School is easy. You can just blow right through it if you do your homework. Wait till your freshmen year. YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!!!! Being a Freshman was a blast. After High school you get to go to College(Hopefully..). College is a great place to expand your knowledge and meet very many new people.

Who needs to go to school when theres a nice warm bridge you can live under for the rest of your life.

Hahaha, all you need to say

Try year 11 buddy.

Or, move to Queensland - Australia.
The education system there is so screwed that you can pass doing jack-all.

In NSW - you need to apply yourself straight from the start.
I am unfamiliar with the system, sorry, but i know it is alot of work.

I'm taking two subjects I have no idea about - so I think i'll suffer more then you will, my friend.

However, school is not pointless.
School is good for 3 things...

1) Learning skills and abilities to further benefit your future self
2) Develop friendships that will last you to your adult life
3) Develop socializing skills - valuable for your work life.

If you are in grade 6-7, then make the most of it.
If you are starting high school, you will be extremely supprised at how amazing it is, and how different it is from your primary school.

The subject choice in high school is much better then the choice in primary school - plus for the first 2 years (or first year sometimes) you get assigned different classes so you can find your strengths.

However, I think its wrong with certain schooling systems where they tally your final mark from when you start school - because you get put into classes you would never pick and have no interest in - so your not going to apply yourself or get a good mark, sometimes you may not understand that subject which is normal.

If you are in grade 6-7 and still in primary school - lap it up.
You are treated like royalty by everyone (depending lol). I remember we got away with murder and your final years in primary dont really matter.

So we just bludged it and chilled out, try convince your teacher to go do PE randomly or try get them to do classes outside or in a library instead of the classroom.
In final years, they sometimes dont mind.

Was that enough to motivate you, or did I scare you?
Lofl.

Unfortunantly I am going to be doing year 11 & 12 in NSW.
My dad lives in QLD and not just the schooling is useless, most every other law is useless.

On topic.
I find money is a good motivator.
Think of it this way.
Would you rather be lazy for 4 years &

~ Wake up every morning hating life.
~ Work an insanely boring and monotonous job.
~ Struggle to make ends meet.[ pay bills etc. ]
~ Not be able to fully provide for your children.
~ Live in a house with more people in it then rooms.
~ Have to work 20 years longer.
~ Have a wife that slightly resembles a hippopotamus .

OR

Work hard for 4 years.

~ Enjoy life.
~ Have a job that is respectable and you enjoy.
~ Drive a nice car & live in a nice house.
~ Be able to buy your children nice gifts for special occasions.
~ Be able to retire & enjoy your last 20 - 30 years.
~ Be happily married.
FIN.
My first scenario isn't always the case but unfortunately alot of the time it is.
One last piece of dribble.

Alot of marriages fail because they struggle to pay the bills etc.
It causes fights and all sorts of shit.

Now imagine your children who will be wearing clothes that have been worn by numerous other children, screaming, tears pouring down his / her cheeks, watching their mummy and daddy fight.
Then be torn away from one parent possibly never seeing them again.

In sever cases the child could be taken by the government.

Not motivation, but something similar was said to me and it made me pull my finger out.
Hope it helps you.

thanks for the motivation ownage^

My mum gave me some good 'advice'
she said..
"i remember when i was your age and i felt the same"

it made me feel better =D

Where i live the teachers can't fail a student unless the parent thinks it's a good idea. If a kid get 5% out of a hundred or even less the kid will continue to the harder grades and harder glasses unless the parent wants their kid to repeat. How screwed up is that.

firstly, its not my current school system - it was for 1 year 3 months and then i disowned it and came to NSW.

Secondly, yes, I can tell its screwed up, simply by pointing out..

• kid get - Add an s to get gets
• and harder glasses - grasses*

Knowledge is power. Education gives you knowledge, and trains you in ways of seeking new knowledge.

Besides, the work you put in now will repay itself ten times over when you are an adult. You could slack off, and drop out, but know that you will likely have a difficult life.

Exactly right, its what I've been told since a kid and its what makes me put the work in (very poorly but hey)

I'm starting Year 11 here in Aus. Joy, HSC Trials this year ;/

Could be worst, at least people like us are getting a proper education.

Or, you can drop out, and be on this sight 24/7. . But education is power, without knowledge you will go nowhere.

Whats wrong with that? (sarcastic and rhetorical)

This is the quote I'm more interested in...

Hmm... all i can really say to that is; I'm glad your minds in the right place.
Keeping in mind that..
A good education = A good job which = a good salary and which can sometimes = happiness.
Umm... I mean money doesnt buy happiness, just high end computers, flashy sports cars, big houses, beautiful furniture and all the asian wives you can sleep with.
LoL, thank god I'm poor with a proper gf (well soon-to-be girlfriend, dfw, i have backups if she fails xD)

Thats good
Its a natural thing for people our age to completely dread school.
The thing that helps me get out of bed at 6 in the morning is knowing that I will..
A) Get to see my friends
B) Have an IT class of some sort
C) If not, hack another persons user account or something to make me feel better.

I Would rather go to school then sit on my ass all day for the rest of my life.

 

[masterkc435]

idk i kinda like sitting on my ass all day.... and what is also true. If you can read you can teach yourself almost anything you want to know. School just makes it easier to find things you want to learn.
