RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Most retarded and irrelevant PE project ever
I now have to make a project on the history of basketball. This is the requirements:
Include at least 10 terms and definitions related to basketball
Write a 2-page essay explaining the history and terminology of basketball terms
Son da fuck when is this going to affect me in life?

Yea, that is retarded. And seriously? A PE project? Is that a new thing they are doing or just at your school? Never heard of that stupidity before. They're trying and failing to give PE purpose. -__-
I'm sorry but what language are you speaking? Because it sounds like bullshit.

As much as I love playing basketball... what the hell are your teachers thinking? PE isn't for writing papers its for having fun and getting some time away from sitting in a mundane classroom. And worrying about the locker room. Damn, were those some bad memories.

Most retarded and irrelevant PE project ever
This remind me about my informatics project.
We are have to "develop" a web-based system in the project. A paper is written, with screen shot of the system attached as a proof of work. However, the system is not need to be submitted. Our teacher told us to create a fake system, which have only user interface designed. Meanwhile, the paper is something like 50 pages+ long.
Shouldn't we develop a real system with less content on the paper? It is useless to stat what the system can do. The project should meant to be a test of our capatibility of developing the system.
I know that feeling, bro. :'(
Do not read this. Reading this message will waste your time. Why you are still reading this? I told you NOT to read this. Stop it! Okay, you may continue to read if you want. However, it's meaningless to read this. I advise you to stop reading this. Oh well, it seems that you are still reading. Why do you read this? I have told you already, this message is meaningless. Your time could be better spent than reading this message. Stop it... NOW! This message is about to end. What? You still want to read? Then continue at the beginning of the message.

The only thing we ever did in our PE classes was line up so the teacher could take attendance, do some stretches then the teacher would hand out the balls(basketball,football and soccer balls) and we'd just go outside and play while he "supervised" us.

I love sports. I have been playing since I remember. Gym is probably the only class I ever liked. Ever since these new fucking regulations or some shit they have been giving out homework, Projects, ect. ITS PHYSICAL EDUCATION. PHYSICAL. Not sit down and write a fucking essay about the sport.

I know nothing about baseball except there's a bunch of innuendos related to baseball. So that's not really baseball. Oh it's also another sport that makes it hard to be left handed, since when I swing the damn ball goes to third base.

RE: Most retarded and irrelevant PE project ever
When I was in high school you were only required to take 1 year of a class called H.O.P.E.
I forget what the acronym stands for "Health --- and Physical Education" or something like that. Anyway it was basically Gym and Health class mixed together, one half of the week you would be in the Gym other half you would be in health class. Plus I took it when my school ran a 4x4 scheduling system where you take 4 classes first half of the year and another 4 the second half, you just had longer class periods. So I only had HOPE for half a year and was only in the Gym a quarter of the year my whole time in high school. It was pretty sweet.
