My Feelings About the Spring School Season

Sometimes school sucks.  Not always though.  I like seeing my friends and being around people and even learning on a daily basis.  This post will talk about some negative and positive feelings I have about school.

1.)  Negative - This is probably the only time of year I would write a statement like this and that is because right now the stress level related to school is really high.  Teachers keep piling assignments on us.  In one class I have three long-term assignments and in another I have four.  APs are coming up and exams are starting to creep into the forefront of my mind. 

2.) Positive - Like I said earlier, all my friends are at school.  There are some people that you see in an out-of-school context but there are others whom you only really see at school.  Its nice to just hang-out with your friends and have social interactions.

3.) Negative - I ask a lot of questions and I'll admit sometimes they may not be the best questions.  But sometimes I think they are pretty good questions.  Frequently I'll ask a question during class to help clarify.  I rarely ever get an answer.  Instead I get a dirty look from the teacher because either they don't know the answer or they don't understand my question or the teacher gets angry and repeats what they just said - not answering the question.  (This happens when I ask both good and bad questions).

4.) Positive - Learning can be fun.  School gives me something to do with my time and it teaches me things.  School is a privilege and an opportunity, so why not take advantage of it?

Now you have read some of my thoughts on school.  Maybe you agree or maybe you don't... I have included a picture of a school to compliment my post.
