[PROJECT: Simon 3,954]

All. Like, everything. Every.Single.year.  Everyone bullied me until now. So basically its... *taps a calculator* I got bullied for.. more than 4 years. Yup. Hard life.

I'm in my senior year now but my junior year was my worst. All my classes were hard as fuck and I got a lot of C's. My GPA dropped a lot because of that year. Hopefully I can get it up a little.

[Sound Variations 264]

Every year. From the 1rst grade to the 12th grade.

 

But the 7th grade was the most fucked up of them all. I lost all respect for students after the 7th grade.

[NotoriousSMALL 1,984]

6th grade, 10th grade. 6th grade was a whirlwind mess and 10th grade was just crappy and lack of motivation in my classes

I feel like 6th grade was like a whirlwind to everyone. I try not to think about jr high, me and my friends all agree that we are to never speak of those 3 years

 

10th grade was also a low point for me, but because I changed schools and moved across the country. So new school, new state, no friends. I was a big ball of depressed that lacked any motivation to care about learning. Literally almost dropped out of public school and almost switched over to home schooling myself through k12, but my principal talked me into only doing half my classes online and the other half at school.

[Celli 4,338]

Hmm, I wouldn't say I was ever really stressed in school, but if I had to pick, probably 11th.

yeah so true middleschool, looking back, is a huge cringefest for me. ive said this before but I skipped like half of my 8th grade year and I cannot fathom how I passed that school year, it wasn't stressful just... strange. plus I was moving around a lot in middle school kind of like you except not around the country, just moving back and forth between my mom and dad.

Although I worry about this year because I'm not learning CRAP this year in my math class because I haven't had a decent teacher since the first two weeks of school.

It seems that every year gets tougher and tougher.

[Admiral Regulus 2,769]

Kindergarten: I don't know anything. Hell, I'm not even sentient. Yayyyyyyy!

 

First grade: Why am I here all day? This is kinda boring...

 

Second grade: Ugh, this is tedious and boring. Is it really necessary that I do this a hundred times today?

 

Third grade: Oh, so I guess this is what life is like. I just do work, and then I do work, and then I do work...

 

Fourth grade:  Wait, so writing a book report means reading a book first? Hah... don't be ridiculous! I'm not gonna read anything!

 

Fifth grade: Okay, school is getting hard. How do I manage to do this without cutting into my video game time? I don't know how much more of this I can take. Please kill me.

 

Sixth grade: Wait... that's all I have to do? This actually isn't that bad. I actually kinda like school, now.

 

---

 

Seventh grade: Oh God! It's bad again! KILL ME! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Oh well, I'll just skip my homework and play some video games tonight.

 

Eighth grade: Another day, another shithead. School is easy, but everyone I know is stupid. Life sucks. I hate everyone. Oh well, time to play video games.

 

---

 

Ninth grade: Ooooooh... so I'm expected to do this thing called "studying?" What, is this some sort of joke? Hah, well that's a good one. I'm a genius! I don't need to study, so I'm not gonna... oh, okay, I'll do it. So, let's see... I need to make an 88 to get a B in this class. Yeah, I can do that. I think... OH GOD I'M FAILING! MY LIFE IS OVER! I DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE; I'M JUST A LAZY BUM AND A DUMBASS! KILL ME NOW!

 

Tenth grade: Well, this is boring, but not as hard as I thought. Better just get it over with.

 

Eleventh grade: Rocket science isn't so hard. Actually, it's kinda fun...

 

Twelfth grade: Senior projects are stupid... I'll show them all. I've already learned calculus, physics, and chemistry at the college level. Why am I even here anymore? Oh well, time to play Minecraft in class.

 

---

 

Community College, Fall 2012: Oh God, this is a lot of work. And I think my professor might be a dumbass... actually, I take that back. She is a dumbass. YA HEAR THAT, DR. BAKER?

 

Community College, Spring 2013: This isn't easy, but I'm doing it. Just gotta keep doing it, everything will work out eventually.

 

Community College, Summer 2013: Now this is easy. It's so easy, I don't even know why I care anymore. Do I care? Actually... no, I don't. Oh well.

 

Community College, Fall 2013: I'm just here to get my C's, so I can have that sheet of paper that tells people I know what I'm doing. School... heh, I don't even care about school anymore. That's the least of my worries. All I really want is to have friends and be happy again.

 

---

 

University, Spring 2014: Well, this is different. Finally! Freedom! Yayyyyyyy! I'm happy again... actually, just kidding. I'm a lonely bastard. WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE? I think I went to class once this week, and I think I might be passing or failing some things. But I don't care! I just want someone to talk to! Heeeeeeeelp meeeeeee! *sniff*

 

University, Summer 2014: Okay, this isn't so bad. Just gotta keep my head straight, and I can do this.

 

University, Fall 2014: Boss man say, work all day. Work, Regulus, work. Oh well, at least some of this is interesting stuff, and at least I'm not lonely anymore.

[Just some guy 1,070]

Pretty much everything that wasn't elementary/primary school or senior year in high school.

 

Middle school is just evil because hormones and puberty hate everybody,I really didn't care about high school enough to put forth any actual effort in most of my classes,and I'd rather work at my job than do college courses at the moment.School is just stressful if you don't give two bollocks about it,really.

 

Except senior year.That was probably the most fun I had during any school year since entering middle school.Had ez pz classes and chill teachers that let all of the kids doing good whatever we wanted.

[Sazama Ichida 2,367]

Hmmm that's a tough one. But I think I might have to say 4th grade.

[Countess Noodle 607]

High school senior year. That was horrible, planning for colleges, taking all these tests, knowing that if you failed your mom was going to burn all the things you loved......Fuck high school.

[A Black Circle 1,586]

Welllllll

 

I'm not going to school anymore. The counseling was BS

[Adente 1,000]

Last year, I thought that it was my senior year of high school, what with all the AP classes, and college applications, and my parents living out of the state. But then again, it was so relaxed, and a really fun chill time; the best part of high school by far.

 

Even though I'm not even done with fall semester, I'm going to say that Plebe Year at the Naval Academy is going to be the most stressful year of education, higher or otherwise, I ever have. Between the stress of a very large and arduous course load, having to compete on a competitive traveling club sport, and doing extra military stuff like workouts and memorizing extra material to qualify for officer commissioning, I have very little breathing room in my schedule, and what free time I have comes out of my sleep. It means I have to function on three hours of sleep a night on average, something I never had to in high school. Hopefully the next three years are better...

[DragonAria 314]

Probably this one-_- never been so busy!

[Adorkable 2,737]

Probably Senior Year, it was the bridge between being a "kid" and an "adult", so to speak.

[~Sugar Sprinkles~ 638]

My Sophomore year in High school (10th Grade). 

 

The reason being, is because we had these Graduation tests that we had to take and pass or else we could not Graduate. Of course, you had to retake them if you failed them and if there was maybe one or a few you did not pass by the time it was Graduation time, you were not able to Graduate.

 

Lucky for me, I was in this program called "IEP" that gave some people extra help. A.K.A Special Ed. I was in there for bad Anxiety and A.D.D. If you were in IEP, you could Graduate either way, even if you failed them. I only did not pass one and that was Math. But, what was stressful, was all year you heard about those d*mn things and did nothing but study them, study that, review this, do this and do that CONSTANT. There also so many projects that year and it was stressful for me, It was work after work and barely any breaks because we ABSOLUTELY had to study these Graduation tests. For me being in IEP with bad Anxiety, it was so overwhelming. I got so behind and I got stressed even more. 

 

Some people tried to say that was their "easiest" year, but that was the hardest for me. Freshman year would be my second. I would never repeat that year ;_;

[Justin_Case001 4,896]

Seventh, no contest.  It was because of social issues, not workload.  I never really stressed much about work.  It was pretty easy for me.  But anyway, seventh grade was hell.  My older brother had long hair for awhile when were kids.  It was all the rage.  The "in" thing to make you cool.  I really looked up to him, and when we were kids, I wanted to do everything he did so I could be cool like him.  So I grew long hair.  Problem was, before puberty, I looked pretty effeminate with that hair style.  No one in elementary school ever cared, because they all knew me.  But once I got to jr. high, with all the upper classman, I got tormented daily.  Everyone made fun of me for looking like a girl.  One especially nasty group of eighth graders would seek me out at lunch and follow me around, taunting me and insulting me.  Food was thrown at me on a few occasions.

 

Between seventh and eighth grade, I cut my hair.  It wasn't purely the peer pressure.  I decided I didn't really want it anymore.  I only did it in the first place to copy my brother when I was much younger.  When I returned for the next school year, the bullying stopped.  Well, okay, the eighth graders were now ninth at the high school, but when I got there, still, no bullying.  I grew up and now I look completely like a man, of course.  But the f*cked up thing about all of that was why a person should be tormented for looking slightly like one sex or the other.  If a guy looks a bit effeminate, or a girl a bit masculine, so what?  Why should that make so many people decend on someone with so much cruelty?  The answer, I know, is that they were stupid jr high kids.  Most of them probably grew up and matured, too.  And one of them is in prison for armed robbery.  He who laughs last, right?  LOL.

Year 10 and Year 11. I must have been in total 6 months in year 10 and then less than half in year 11. Surprisingly, the only exam I did do, I passed. Whereas most people failed even when they attended school, lol.

[Lisa 5,553]

A mix between the end of Primary School and the beginning of High School. Year 7 was hard because it was such a big difference over Year 6. And Year 6 was hard because I had some pretty horrid teachers.

[MidnightBloom 84]

Idk, to be honest it seemed like every year I was a ball of stress  

[A Black Circle 1,586]

My school, because of its carelessness and refusal to LISTEN TO DOCTORS WHO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING, made me suicidal.

[Tameless 979]

Probably my senior year of High School. That was chaos. I almost didn't graduate... but I did so yeah.

[Kapitan zur See Hans (Daz) 883]

In High School it would have to be Junior year as I transferred from a Catholic School to a Public School(Had a few preconceptions, but for the most part it turned out alright). Freshman year of college as well as I I slipped into a depression for the entire year, changed a lot about me, but after retaking my first year of college things are on a much better ground.

[deadprofile 1,122]

Junior Year of high school.

 

I am ahead of my peers, on track to graduate by the end of the year. I had already been accepted to 7 colleges and was preparing for it. I had a full time job on top of a part time job (on the weekends) as well as having a full class schedule (I graduated with a 4.0 GPA).  BUT the stupid state (I was in foster care) stepped in a said I couldn't graduate at the end of the year and I couldn't be working so much, and they took 90% of all the money I had saved up for college (I actually wasn't allowed to have to a job due to 'liability', but after 3 months they reversed that verdict but didn't give MY money back). I had to take senior year, and redo everything (FAFSA, scholarships, grants, etc) to get funding for college in my senior year (I found out if I went one more semester in high school, I would have had enough of the correct credits to graduate TWICE! I had 38 credits by the end of my senior year, when I only needed 24)

So all that hard work went down the hole. None of my accomplishments were recognized, and by the time I stepped foot on my college campus, I had $10.00 to my name because all the money I saved up went towards rent for the summer, which by Christmas break I ended up homeless because I had no home to go back to and I was in a city where I knew no one, had no car let alone license (foster care wouldn't allow it), and no friends because I focused on my studies and not socializing.
