I'm starting to believe

Maybe I'm just crazy,
but I'll tell you one thing.
I've been working my ass off to catch up since my freshman year of high school.
And where has it got me?
Nowhere. I'm still here, busting my ass trying to graduate to make everybody else happy,
when in reality I could care less about a diploma-
I just want to leave this place.
In Zack's words:
"If I wanted to go to a fucking prison, I'd rob a bank, not go to school."
I'm beginning to understand where he's coming from- this is ridiculous.
All of the teachers expect me to have a computer to make up work on.
"Go on Youtube when you get home and look for Obama's speech." -my gov/ec teacher
"I don't have a computer."- me
*confused look*- gov/ec teacher.
Yeah, it's that bad.
God, this is ridiculous.
I'm probably not going to be able to walk at graduation.
And I can't get my GED because I'm not a year behind in credits. And there aren't any "special circumstances" that allow me to do so even though I'm not a year behind.
Basically, only the hopeless cases get the easy way out.
The rest of us have to work our asses off, whether we walk or not.
And if I don't walk, the disappointment of my family will be palpable.
If I get my GED, they'll just be angry.
Personally, I'd rather deal with angry. I can leave angry behind, but disappointed?
No, angry is fine with me.
*sigh*
I'll figure it out, somehow.
