4 Reasons Why Going Back To School Isn't Even That Bad.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Back to school. A phrase everyone's groaned at, or shuddered at just thinking about it. Even I have at one point. When I was a child and I never realised how great school can be. Now don't get me wrong, certain aspects of it suck, but it's not all bad.

Bare in mind, that these are reasons personal to me. It might not fit your perspective of things, so please don't think I'm talking about everyone. Some of you may be able to relate, others not so much.

1) I Miss My Friends Over The Summer

Me and my friends always plan to meet up over the summer, does that ever happen? Nope. We're all lazy, introverted people. But I guess that is a good thing considering we get a break from each other and then when we come back, we're all really happy. You know what they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder or something like that. There's nothing like the feeling of seeing your friends after summer.

2) It's Technically My Last Year At School

I've been going to school since 2007, and now it's technically my final year, at school, in uniform at least. I have my GCSE examinations in June and it isn't even a full year, we leave in April. I just can't believe it's all gone by so fastly, and I want to cherish the time I have left here and be happy. :)

3) Home Can Be Boring

I mean we don't go anywhere or do anything so school is an escape from the boredem. Sure, some classes are boring, but some are actually fun as well. Like my English where my teacher jumped up on the table pretending to murder my friend. It keeps me occupied, and I like it when I'm doing something.

4) It Gets Me Set In a Routine

In the summer, I always mess up my routine, sleep in too much and I'm a zombie, pretty much. I feel like a slob and a mess, I just can't be bothered with anything. School makes me set in a routine and I feel much more lively and happier with myself.

Oh God, I've only been back at school for a day and a half and I already sound so cheesy. I'm just in a really good mood and felt the need to share it. Maybe you can think of some more reasons, maybe not, but either way I hope you enjoyed this MyTake. :)

[JimRSmith]

I used to hate the phrase 'back to school' with a passion, lol.

However, I think I used to see my mates quite a lot over the holidays.

Other thing you mentioned that I don't recall being the case for me - you finish in April? I'm virtually certain we had to keep going until May...

[SpiderManFan2002]

Well, we get study leave for our exams in May and June.

[Guanfei]

Pfeh. Kids thinking school is terrible don't have the slightest idea of how worse it becomes later.
It makes me laugh when I hear teens saying that they want to be adult, because adults are "free".
Trust me, kid, if there is a thing adults aren't, it's free.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Okay :)

[Dingaldongal]

Life just gets shifter and shifter the older you get, unless you're rich, only rich people can afford to enjoy life, nosy of us are stuck in loveless marriages, doing jobs we hate, working with people we hate.

[pooper89]

oh jeez I thought this was going to be about going back to college in your 30s lol

[SpiderManFan2002]

Haha, no, I'm only half that age lol.

[Aguysopinion4799]

Same!
When you are away, you start to miss your friends and being at home starts to get both boring and irritating because you can't get away from family.
Won't lie, I am finding home life at the moment tiring to say the least, look forward to going back to college too ^_^

[SpiderManFan2002]

I mean I don't mind my family, they're great, I love them, but sometimes can just be so naggy at me sometimes.

And when I want my privacy they always assume the worst lol.

[Aguysopinion4799]

With me, it's like this:
I love them of course, I care about them as well... BUT...
They are all such assholes...
When I am gone, they say they miss me a lot
When I am home for a while, they say I am lazy, they say they look forward to me going back to college because I talk too much or ask too many questions
My dad turns the TV up when I talk because I am apparently too loud -_-

So my family test my patience..
Then they ask for help, I do help but right after (5-10 min) they will say that I never do anything or will make jokes about me, assuming I don't find them insulting, even though I have said I do

So that's why I look forward to being out.

They also REFUSE me any privacy, because of my epilepsy, privacy apparently does not exist!

[Dingaldongal]

I don't see the point of working hard to pass exams, even university graduates are getting stuck with shity minimum wage jobs these days, might as well drink beer smoke pot and shag anything in a skirt, except for Mrs Brown of course, prices are rising faster than wages, we'll all be using food banks soon, what's the point in going on? We'd all be better off dead, except merchant banker, footballers and actors, they're all massively overpaid.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Minimum wage jobs are a starting point to work yourself up.

It may be hard at first, but hardwork pays off.

[Dingaldongal]

I hate hard work, I wish I was the son of a millionaire, then I wouldn't have to work at all.

[VIVANT]

I hated summer vacation... I loved gong back to school though I did not like my classmates, I loved learning and having a definite structure, even if that was knowing when I could hate what I hated then be done with it for the day 😁

[OlderAndWiser]

Enjoy school while it lasts. When you have finished, you will look back and realize that it was tremendous fun with very little responsibility.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Yeah, I feel that way about primary school :)

[Jager66]

ha! I'm gonna call bullshit on this one.

I was told that by so many adults when I was younger, now I know it was a lie. Being in school/that age is soo fucking shitty. And responsibility is only bad if you make poor life choices that put you in a bad work/life balance long term.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Jager66 News flash: You are the exception. Most people look back and cherish their school years. If you didn't. . . well, then, it sucks to be you. But it's not bullshit for everyone else.

[Jager66]

Perhaps it's generational. The only people I know who have expressed an enjoyment of their school years, with any consistency as a group, are the baby boomers.

[Kaneki05]

I say no of this as disrepectful but it may sound like that, 1st if home is boring get a life,
2nd if you miss your friends over summer make plans if you don't it's your own falut or maybe you need better friends,
3rd if you like routine make one yourself it is not that hard if you don't wanna then don't it is as simple as that.

[SpiderManFan2002]

To be honest it sounds kind of disrespectful to me, in future word your answers better if you want more respect.

1) Home can be boring, but that doesn't mean I don't have a life. Not everyone can go places and have fun though, you've no idea about my life so don't tell me to get one.

2) Again, you've no clue who my friends are, you're judging them based on something I've written on the internet. Things never go to plan, because that's how it is. We're 15 years old. Sometimes our parents say no, or we'll have to go see other family members, or some of my friends may even leave the country to see family in other parts of the world. I don't need better friends they're great.

3) School is my routine, but summer makes you lazy, so you kind of slip out of it.

[Kaneki05]

Again sounds like an easy fix if you work on it.
If you not happy do something about it if you don't want to then don't you can blame other things all you want but really it is not that hard to take control of your own life or maybe you don't want to without knowing it or maybe your too lazy.
This is not a judgement or meant to be rude this is just advice, one day you will realise you can live in a world where you blame on things for reasons of things you can change everyone is control of there own life or you can live thinking everything else is to blame.
I don't mind nor care which one you do but at least be aware of which one your choosing.
Me personally i choose to blame other things for reasons why i don't see friends or have many and don't go out and do thing but i know if i really wanted to i could change it but i just lie it myslef thinking i can't so i never do.

And yeah i have no clue have you live or what you do but i do know everyone makes there own choices.

[veronicasegura]

Very good stuff with good ideas and concepts, lots of great information and inspiration, both of which we all need.

[Logorithim]

Good stuff. I was always excited to go back to school.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Thank you :)

[Bananaman177]

Yeah, you think school sucks so bad until you go to fuckin' work.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Okay :)

[TheHopelessFan]

I love school. History, science and, math are all great! plus i love to read. only thing I'm not looking forward to is essays.

[SpiderManFan2002]

I don't mind writing to be honest. I love reading novels and comic books.

[TheHopelessFan]

I hate being told what to write that's my issue.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Yeah I guess that kinda sucks for time to time especially when you have no interest or passion about what you're writing about :/

[Gopnik]

just like count dankula said:
boys go to school to smoke weed, watch fights and make teachers cry.
girls go to school to get pregnant.
in short school sucks it's gay

[Harsh_Ch]

Ugh... I always hated school, even now
In fact I plan on homeschooling my children

Better work for a living/ do a business and it's more entertaining and competitive

[Muhammad1999]

[SpiderManFan2002]
