Starting the 25th of this month, I'm going to begin being home schooled. To be honest, I'm really relieved that this happened. I've always learned better when I actually reading it for myself and not sitting in a classroom with other kids feeling like I'm going out of my fucking mind! I swear, for me, when I walk into a classroom, any desire to want to learn something just washes away. Suddenly, when I'm sitting there, listening to the squeaky, noisy voice coming out of the teachers mouth, I just begin to not care anymore...
However, when I'm on my own and reading and learning by myself, I've come to realize I learn more and actually understand it. So, this may be for the best; Being home schooled and all. It'll bring my GPA up, AND they say if I finish the courses I need, I could begin college course before the end of senior year! I thought that was pretty kool. I could do business class; The only class I'd really go to college for; And then I'd have that degree and go to culinary school. It's a thought.
The whole reason I'm being home schooled now is because of absences; And grades. I'm a slacker. Big time. A skipper too. I just don't have much of a motivation to go to school and sit down to stare into space. I think they said I'd missed 20 or so days of school... I'm not sure. I wasn't at the meeting. But not all of them were because I didn't want to go to school; Actually, most of them were due to medical reasons. With frequent visits to the doctors and constant sickness, it was hard going to school all the time.
That was when the school stepped in and decided to see what was going on. They were actually nice about it. Very understanding. And they're helping me out a lot by doing this for me. I think all of this will end for the better.
school,
