yo man, you're probably just stressin out right now.. high school is mad easy.. and i think the reason they teach you sooo much stuff that seems unintersting is so that kids find out what there interests are.

no way!  i am getting the same thing, in a month. 

i know i personally have learned way more just living in the real world than i have ever learned in a class room.   there is always something new to learn, it is up to us to take it and use it.

You get a piece of paper.  A piece of paper that says that you aren't a complete fucktard.  Then you get to show that piece of paper to someone and hope they give you a job.  If you're lucky enough, and motivated enough, this job will eventually lead to a 6 or 7 digit salary.  If you manage this salary properly you might be lucky enough to become the proud owner of one of the really big homes conveniently located 3.2 feet from the lift.  You then get to wake up later than everyone else and still be in line early enough to catch fresh tracks.

That's what you get out of school.

Oh yeah, you also get lots of fun drugs and hot ass.

ill make a list

1.meet bitches
2. learn about some cool shit sometimes
3. learn to not be a dumbass
4. make friends, find out about parties
5. get drugs if thats your things
6. get to go to college
7. get to make money
8. get to buy cool shit and fuck younger women


all kinds of good stuff comes from highschool, unfortunately for most of the time getting educated isnt one of the things you get.

school isnt necessarily about learning, its about repetition and conformity.  you "learn" information that sticks with you for a few weeks, then repeat it to teh teacher to get a good grade.  it teaches you that conformity is good, you do exactly what they say and are taught to follow rules and dont go outside of them.  school is about thinking in the box.

none of this is my idea, i personally think that i learn a lot from school in terms of academics and things that will be helpful later in life, as well as social skills.  but in the end, you get out of it what you put into it

yep. only if you want to be social though. you learn a lot of coping skills and stuff too, but not a lot of actual facts until junior year if you take ap classes. then you slack senior year.
