SCHOOL

Sounds unfortunate, the people here are retarded, too. Plus, because of my bad math grades I was put in a class with underclassmen, which makes it even worse. And my walk is about 24 minutes in 90-100 degree weather, I can't wait until winter. But, still, sux d00d.

That is rather unfortunate. Well, a GED sounds like a better idea if your situation is really that bad.

Sucks for you guys...
My year has been good so far...

Well, you are an APfag, so gtfo, lol.

Not AP, IB.
Besides, I'm taking Physics, Geometry, and Trigonometry in one year, which is suicide to some degree.
With homework, all you do is put on music and do homework on and off while playing games or watching TV. Since your workloads probably aren't that bad (Er, I may be wrong), it should be finished easily.
With the walking, my walk is about 15 minutes in humidity and a backpack that weighs >40 lb. A good thing to do is listen to music that's fast paced and it goes by quickly.
With sleep, can't help you there, I'm already used to three hours of sleep. What I do is nap for about 4 hours when I get home.

I could do all of that if I actually felt like it, lol. But, I don't really think it is the workload or how much you carry home (I carry home far more than you do on purpose, lol), rather, the people in your classes and the difficulties and insecurities of living in a poor neighborhood (I live in a suburb, flanked everywhere by "ghettos")

Where's this all sound familiar...?

I didn't like school until high school, when I had an immediate vibe for organization and bureaucratically and systematically doing all my work with great enthusiasm... and coffee.

Drink some coffee.

Eh, I know how you feel man. When you feel depressed all the time, the last thing you want to do is homework, especially when you don't even want to get out of bed.

You could try different pick-me-ups to get you through the day easier, or make yourself a schedule. Like Nik said, do homework for 30 minutes, then take a break by watching tv or playing video games or whatever. Then do another 30 minutes of homework. It might sound boring, but it helps some people.

It also helps to do it with someone else, like I do with my sister. You keep each other company and motivated enough to do work.

I know that stuff sounds lame or you've heard it before, but honestly, there's nothing wrong with taking a crack at it. See if it helps you at all.

Well, all of this sounds great except it's all stuff I've heard before. I've really wanted to help myself in the past, I even wrote a paper on how I would because my guidance counselor asked for it. It was totally awesome, but I couldn't keep to it. I have a major love, and addiction for computers, and I go crazy if I can't get on one everyday when one is nearby. Technically I've been raised by it, and I'm apathetic to all of my family but my father and my older sister.

On the morning thing, it's so bad that I won't get out of bed without constant pestering from a family members. I've tried coffee and soda, it just doesn't work for me. I don't have any idea about my neighborhood since I just got here about a week ago (Living with my mom, two sisters, and my grandmother, plus her sister, and her sister's son.). We're all in this... three bedroom, two bathroom house I guess. Bathalto, Illinois is really quite crappy from what I've seen so far.

I'm discouraged by homework because of the ease of the curriculum, and how stupid everyone in America apparently is. God, at least everyone in DoDDSE schools knew how to read.

Illinois has some great places to go to, not much to do though.

Implying everyone in America is stupid...
Everyone I hang out with is intelligent to some degree... Only the regular program kids are the ones who are stupid as heck here.
I have one class with regular kids, and our homework is to make a calender with 48 events. That we can do in class. That is due in two weeks.
ANNNYYWAYSSS....
I'm addicted to my computer to, but my mom takes my laptop away if I become too antisocial.
It takes a lot to break an addiction. To make friends, really just find someone REALLY social. My best friend is a Sophomore who knew like everyone at the school, so I just follow her everywhere.
Waking up sucks, I set so many alarms. 4AM, 4:10AM, 4:15AM, etc. The last one has a longer one at 4:45AM.

Wow Nik... this is the first time I've ever seen you say something nice like this... owo who are you and what have you done with our resident trollbait!?

20/80 rule.

Take your computer.

Throw it into your driveway.

80% of your time is now freed up.

Implying I'm...
a) Trollbait
b) Being nice as in not insulting 70% of my school.

Those are weird teeth.


Anywho...
Do you really have to reply to almost everything with a bloody picture?

He does make a point, he does.

lol, the majority population of my school is niggers, although most of the staff is white, it seems almost like we are going back to pre-Civil war times except without the slavery.
