School is truly messed up. I mean, I know everyone hates it, but have you ever taken a moment to think about how horrible it really is? It's past the point where it's about learning things, now it's all about the grades. The teacher's could care less; they put in less effort than the students, and they hate it just as much. They just assume that all kids are going to all be good at the exact same things. Why should I have to take Calculus when I have no interest in pursuing math at any time during my life? I shouldn't. Beyond the pure academics of it all, I also find the social aspect to be cruel.
Teenagers already have a hard enough time with their hormones all in whack; we're grumpy, angry, lazy, cold. And they decided to just stick us all together and assumed that we wouldn't make each others lives miserable. That's almost worse than the homework itself. Kids in school get so bored that they just go around saying horrible, horrible things about each other. Did you know that the average high school student has a higher anxiety rate than an insane asylum patient in the 1950s. There is definitely something wrong here. But is anyone going to do something about it? Nope.
