rant: why our school sucks
i hate our school. you may or may not have heard of it, but it's in belair and hey, it's science oriented! science is one of my weakest subjects, but that's not why i hate it. hell, i could be the worst dissector in the world but still enjoy it.
the school sucks because a) they make students do too much activities. i mean, last week we just celebrated nutrition week and we had to do this jingle thing (we came second) and we just started preparing on monday. the week before that was anti-bullying, and instead of orientations and workshops on how to avoid or defend oneself against bullies, we had to make a comic on an illustration board. what drawing could do against bullying is beyond me.
b) making the students do the chores is one thing, making the students do the chores without providing the tools is another. last year, we had to paint floor blocks and decorate it with math related shit. yup, you guessed it, math awareness week. we even had to buy the brushes and paint.
since few of us had brushes, some of us were lucky to paint the blocks using our bare hands. little did i know, i was allergic to paint, and before i knew it, spots began to form on my hands and arms and my parents had to take me to the hospital, since this already happened last year with noodles, which incidentally, i also happened to be allergic to.
so yeah, i swelled up like a balloon. it might sound funny, but mind you, we spent about $40 on the check up and meds. another thing why my school can suck my imaginary dick is because c) they don't give two shits if you're tired, or sick, or blah. you're getting shit done, and that's all they really care about.
one more reason is that, d) as i mentioned, we're a science oriented school?? so why are there chorales, plays, dramafests, art contests, jingles, and tons of performances? i'm usually an art person, but i don't like it when someone doesn't stick to their word. they keep bragging, "oh yes, we're a science school, nothing can beat us," but they don't have the right events for it. not even good equipment in the lab. nuh uh.
e) they accept nonprofessionals. meaning, not only do we have to deal with the three sciences, three maths, and all the other subjects, but also with the sucky teachers. they take teachers who do not know how to teach, how to handle a class, and do not know what they fuck they are talking about. and that's coming from a private school--here, private schools are better than public ones. but that's another story.
f) did i mention the uniform is lame?
and last but not the least, g) you're nothing if you're not smart. i'm just lucky that i'm an awesome crammer, and i get everything done last minute--meaning i get a lot of time for tumblr, twitter, facebook, and still accomplish what i have to accomplish. but for some who are not-so-lucky, well, i feel sorry for them. it's not like the school's gonna do anything about that.
i actually get it all now. i get why the previous seniors, now alumni, were so happy when they stepped out of the campus. they were free. i want to be free. soon i will be.
