Welcome to Gaia! ::

Here's a thread where you can vent out your feelings (just keep it PG-13). Go ahead. Rant. Rant your head off if you will. And no cybering please. We will just ignore you (hopefully). Enjoy.

LUCKY. I only have two days off, but that's still something...

((Pointless, meaningless rambling ahead. Don't take anything I say the wrong way, please. I'm just trying to vent.))

UGH. STUPID CST'S!! WHY WHY WHY DO WE NEED TO TAKE THEM??!! And in all of the stupid subjects too! History, English, Math, Science, I don't even have science this semester! Whoever planned out this test is an idiot! How do expect us to remember EVERYTHING that we learned from the whole of last semester? I mean, it's fine for the people who have science THIS semester, but why couldn't the people who had first semester take it then or something? It's not like you'd give us enough time to copy down all of the questions and answers while trying to figure out which answer could be the correct one (especially with all of the trick questions you try to get us to put down). And sure, English is fine, and maybe a little of History is okay too, but MATH AND SCIENCE. Fine, science this year isn't that bad even if it WAS first semester, but it's the MATH that's killing me here. Sure, I may be asian, but I can't be expected to remember every single ******** formula that I learned throughout the year and how to use them and crap like that!! And that's for everyone else too! The I-Love-Math-So-Much-That-I-Feel-So-Superior-To-You-And-Won't-Help-You-Study kids aren't much help either! THEY may be guaranteed A++ on the CST, but help out the people who don't understand it too! I don't want to fail (fear the wrath of my mother), I want to get this over with (and you should too), and I wish that there were CST's on theatre or art or a subject that is easy to understand instead of "life subjects" which most of us aren't even planning to use later in life anyways want to ******** PASS THIS DAMNED TEST SO I CAN GET ON WITH LIFE AND FEEL LIKE I ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISHED SOMETHING USEFUL FOR MY FAMILY.
Also, F.I.N.A.L.S. ********, I Never Actually Learned this s**t. FINALS AND CST'S AT THE SAME ******** TIME??!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!! I know that school ends early this year, but why couldn't we take the damned finals earlier? Then, the district could have made it a little easier and we couldn learn things at a reasonable pace. Learn one chapter from the textbook one day and another the next. I'm not kidding! No break, no losing concentration at all. They think that by racing through all of the chapters, we'll learn more. WELL GUESS WHAT MOFOS?? I HAVEN'T LEARNED s**t THIS YEAR AND THAT YOU CAN BLAME ON YOUR STUPID SCHEDULE THAT YOU MAKE THE TEACHERS FOLLOW!! I mean, does life really go by that fast? There are some things that you HAVE to learn in the timespan of a few minutes (or seconds or whatever), but not EVERYTHING is like that. How do you expect us to remember everything when we might have other things to try and remember too?? You tell us that it's healthy and good for us if we have an extra-curricular activity, but all that's doing is making our minds more hectic! It can be fun at times, but how is it helping us when it's overloading our brains? Especially if you have something like theatre, where you need to remember scripts; or music (band, orchestra, whatever), where you need to memorize scores; or- you know what? Screw this. I'm tired of this and I'm just going to stop before I explode and get into more details. I just have to say, there's not enough time to cram all of this crap into our lives. We need to lessen the things we learn a bit or we need to alter time so we could have more room to learn.

Whoa, this took up a small paragraph... Geez, and it's only a partial bit of my school stress... X_X
