If im right, he is in the typical high school situation. Stuck in a prison, feeling restless, frustrated by the usual bullshit involved with all of that. When i was a freshmen, on the first day of school, i looked around at my surroundings, and asked myself "what the fuck am i doing here?". Well 3 years later im a senior, i stayed. Go with the flow man, just weather it out, dont let shit fase you, and utilize the time you have to pursue things you wish and are interested in. Keep one foot in your world, and another in the hollow world of school. Thats something you can take through life. Goodluck.
When I was 16 years old I was going to high school with a bunch of bitches whose daddies bought them beamers, rednecks with nooses on their keychains, and overall just a bunch of fucking idiots. I was going INSANE. It was the most menacing period of my life... I decided that I had better things to do than wake up early and go to "school" with these assholes and learn absolutely nothing. I knew that there were other things I had to do in life. I've always been a very smart kid, and I've learned SO MUCH since I quit school. One morning I just layed in my bed. I didn't move, and I didn't say anything. My parents went absolutely fucking crazy and thrashed my room, yelling and screaming at me. But I just layed there. And I didn't go. I had to fight a war with them. But I did not go. I left home at 17 and moved to california. I ended up becoming an apprentice recording engineer. I ended up getting my GED eventually. (The test was so easy I could have passed it in 5th grade) Just so I could take some music classes at college. I hated school so much. I was made fun of all throughout my childhood. Everyone I went to school with was a fucking moron. Except for one girl, who is still my friend. Why stay in high school and get a diploma? It's a fucking waste of time. The school system (at least in the states I've lived in) is so fucked up, corrupt, and stupid. They force kids to submit to their law. I hate it. I'm making so much money. (Up to 50$ and hour) I'm only 20. I have my whole life ahead of me and I've only just begun my career working with sound. Do what you feel is right. If you have something you are good at, pursue it. If you have dreams, pursue them. If school is driving you insane and you have other things to do, then do them. For gods fucking sake we are MONKEYS THIS IS EARTH Do not forget this. "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of your law"
rednecks and preps everywhere. Sounds exactly like my story. you have to work hard, man. remember that. life isn't easy. high school is unnecessary.
think it varies state to state, but here the rules are 16 you can with parents permission 18 without, and 17 parents can pull you out without your permission thats what happened to me, i was tryin to make it thru, with all the crap, but at 17 was removed against my will hs sux, yes the kids are psychos, but its just a couple years..nothing in the long run, and years down the roAd you'll wish i had those 2 years back, wish ui finnished..believe me ya dont wanna be workin at mcdonalds or a factory or gas station till your 65 2 years of hell now can save u from 30+ years of hell later
That is the EXACT problem Im having. Im pretty smart too, so its good to know if I do, people like me have a chance. So thank you for the inspiration, and I love your career . I even planned on finding a way to California. It seems like a place for the hippies and punks to runaway to. So is it like that?
yea man. its just that i cant deal with it anymore. it might just be the school im in. but all i know is that cant take it anymore.
This your life, you call the shots. Look beyond the authority figures that block your light. Just contemplate this, take our words with you, and blaze your trail. If you stay, use your time to get money and learn shit your interested in. If you leave, utilize all of your resources now. Learn everything you can to survive and flourish.
p.s. I also want to say the reason I moved to california was because I grew up there, spent 15 years of my life there. It's my home. I wouldn't move there unless you have a plan. It's really expensive out there, too...
Get used to it...the real world is hell too...look around you. High school is just a practice run. Might as well go with the flow, man.
Well in my experience, it's a whole hell of a lot like high school...and if you go to college after getting your GED...that's even MORE like high school...
