End of the Quarter!!
As most of you know it's that time again. It's the end of the quarter where my typically high anxiety shoots through the roof because of pointless grades that won't matter in 15 years from now. I am not sure if it's just how my brain is wired or how school has programmed us, as students, to think but the end of each quarter is the "end of the world", we all stress about finishing assignments that we placed on the back burners of our brain, freak out about idiotic dance teachers threatening to fail us, and getting off your ass to do your blogs that forgot about all quarter. Don't get me wrong, I do a fair share of work, but somethings are just bad old habits. I'm basically a fifth grader when it comes to long term assignments, cough cough blog posts, I always procrastinate and it ends up biting me in the butt. I always tell myself you'll do better next quarter, and never do. I try hard, just not "hard enough", I do my homework on a regular basis and do very well in Algebra 2/Trig and Biology, now English and History that's a different story. I have never loved reading, or even been good at it for that matter, but school is school and the corrupt educational system of New York makes the one thing I hate the most carry over into every subject. Have these people ever thought of the student's who are wired for numbers or chemical compositions? Schools spend so much time talking about not to stereotype, yet the whole Board of Education does it by saying that kids hate math. Herricks has extra help classes for math and science, where's the one that I need? Why do we have easier courses for math, but not English? News flash, no one is perfect! Now I can't rant on and on for days about how little sense modern education makes, but back to my point; I'm actually going to do all of my work now...
