I miss school but thinking about it kinda makes me wanna blow my shit off
I did a scary thing and emailed my teacher to point out that there was something wrong with the submission of an assignment. are you proud of me. he's failed my friend's assignment because of it. I hope he doesn't fail mine, I need this grade 😭
we're having an assailant drill, and someone got locked out
like we don't know where they are
i think they went to the bathroom or something, but that would be so terrifying if it was real
theres a reason I don't go to the bathroom at school
cause there's a very real chance I could never come back
Sometimes I forget most people aren't ND and I get scared and wanna hide in the corner where I'll be safe
I’m literally paralyzed with fear over this essay like I have ALWAYS been praised for my writing... but that was hs and a jr college... these are hardcore professors!! With doctorates!!! Who have been reading some of the most eloquent and concise essays for like... YEARS. How do I know if I can compete?? And if I’m not making an A on them my self worth is going to plummet!! My entire identity is based on doing good in school!! All the other students are these like, premed students who know SO much more than me I’m just some dumb little small town girl from a teensy weensy little town how the fuck am I supposed to compete with the children of fucking doctors!!!
Guys, I'm all kinds of freaked out. I've decided I want to try and go to college. I'm late 20's and have never been. I have NO idea what I'm doing. I don't even know where to start? Like, literally I don't know what the first step to enrolling is? Or how to apply for funding? Every time I start trying to navigate it I panic and bail. I feel like I'm going to have an anxiety attack anytime I pull up college websites.
I really love that my job treats me like an adult.
I mean, I get to do what I want as far as breaking through out the day, which is nice... Because I choose to take 5-15mins every hour or every other hour rather than 3 larger breaks and it helps my day go faster.
I also don’t feel like my boss might think I am trying to avoid going to work when I ask to cut my hours for school. We just had a conversation about it and hes super open and honest and didn’t make me feel like I was being a bad employee.
Truly, I wish everyone had a boss that treats their employees as good.
He asked if I needed to school work every night and when I responded “I need to do something every night.” He didn’t second guess me. It was just a really nice conversation and I didn’t even have to go into the
“I have depression and anxiety, so it can be hard to motivate myself”
“Its easier to get myself to do course work, ect, first thing in the morning because I’ll want to get it over with”
“I’m really scared of starting school again because I flunked out last time and I NEED as much extra time as possible at home to do my online school work because I don’t want it to happen again.”
or anything any more personal than that.
He’s just a great dude.
TL;DR
My boss is awesome and I didn’t have to have an overly vulnerable conversation with him about cutting my hours (to start school) because he respects me and more people deserve a boss like that.
HUGE TRIGGER WARNING FOR MENTIONS OF G*N VIOLENCE
Hey guys, serious issue is at hand. I know this isn’t my usual kind of post but I would really like to come to this issue at hand with the United States. Sch00l sh00tings, and just general g*n violence, not just sch00l sh00tings.
I genuinely hate what our country has came to. School sh00tings have became such a big issue ever since the ‘bine happened in 1999. G*n violence has became the leading cause of death within adolescence. Every time a shooting happens we just ignore it. It’s genuinely fucked up how desensitized we are to gun violence. I hate it. It’s so fucked up how bad it is. I don’t know what to say. It genuinely baffles me how much we just don’t give a fuck.
I don’t know what else to say like the thought of going to school and never coming home again scares me a shit ton and I am actually very very scared. In 2021, the school my mom works at received a threat and I still remember that.
I hate what our nation has came to.
(Side note: I’m against gun violence, not only because I myself am still in school (we r out for summer rn) and also my mom works in the education system. my user doesn’t look and seem that way but I heavily am against it.)
