so frusterating
Quote From: clarinapeI am a 15 year old, and I have gone from loving school to hating school. For me, school has always been a place for me to learn new things, and be around peers. Now, I dread going abck to school tomorrow. I am real smart, and have been compared at times to Albert Einstein. In my classes, i am the smartest ones in them, and I don't really learn much. I normally don't try to show off how smart i am, but alot of people think i do. Today, I got so mad at something said about me being smart, i 'bout punched the comcrete walls at school. I just have decided that I really do not being smart. I don't know if anybody could tell me anything that could help me change my mind, so i will like school again. But if anybody can help, please. help I know how you feel. I have gone though similar things: even my youth pastor called me a walking dictionary. As for the Einstein comment, lets just say doing a report on Einstein in 6th grade and trying to explain relativity and photon theory to sixth graders was not my best decesion ever. But, I have found the lack of intellectual peers to diminish as I have gotten to higher grades. My junior and now my senior year have been almost all AP classs, which has tended to help with having other students at my level. Not everyone in AP classes will be at your intellectual level but its still considerably better than other classes. Also, if your really bored in slow classes just do your homework from other classes. That is what I did during my required classes but my teachers couldn't really get mad at me because when they called on me I could explain the answers better than they did in the first place. (Nothing humbles a teacher quite like trying to catch a studen off guard and having their answer cause the rest of the class to go, "oh, I get it now" lol)
