aquageek...I feel ya!
Lainey--I'm surprised at you.
The problem now is that there are more lazy, bad teachers as opposed to passionate ones.
Now, people can get on the box for me saying that--but it's really true.
when I was in school, I was bored to death, and my grades relected it. But, I never got booted off a team or suffered huge consequences. I got b's and c's, and went on to graduate from University of cincinnati with a BA, and now have my own business.
Now, with that said--JC, get your act together. You don't have a learning disability, retardation, or any other of that psycho b.s. that shrinks are quick to assign to a person. If your counselor, or any other person tries to tell you you're not "college material", don't listen to them. Leave the diagnosis to a medical doctor--not teachers, janitors, counselors, or other people.
You might just be a normal kid, bored at school, who needs to get his butt in gear.
A little effort JC goes a long way. Go work at Wendy's one summer--if you don't get your act toghether, that's what you have to look forward to in the future.
The other thing I want to say, is that not every dynamic kid out there is stimulated by "class room" environments all day everyday. I don't know why the format hasn't become innovated by now, but I think it neglects many kids who would benefit from other formats of learning.
But, JC, that's still no excuse--you've got to get through school, and get your ass in gear. Otherwise, you're going to be a very disappointed person later in life.
