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.

Life of an Attention Whore

second week done and dusted, worked saturday yet again but im not complaining because half days don't exhaust me and i get time and a half pay. i am complaining about the fucking physical pain though. my fingers and back mainly. i already mentioned the back pain i think but my fingers are fucking stiff and sore and even slightly tightening my grip on something makes it hurt like a cunt. the peeps at work i've talked to have the same shit. one guy apparently takes this shit that just numbs his hand so he can work without pain. i don't notice the pain when i'm working though because i'm busy focusing on just keeping up with the fucking line and wiping sweat from my face with often blood covered gloves

i got moved station and i'm on a more "physically intense" one now vs the more knife oriented one from before. this is good for two reasons: 1. i'm shit with a knife and keeping my knife sharp 2. i get paid a dollar more here so i'm making goodish money now i guess. on a week where i work a saturday i should take home roughly 700 kiwibucks. minus under 200 for rent and food and i can save over 500 a week (!!!!!)

i'm beginning to look into driving lessons. they cost like 70 bucks for a lesson (no more sweet 500 a week wah wah) and they provide a car which is sweet. im gonna learn in an automatic which is stupid in the longterm because everyone here drives manuals but i'm a slow, stupid, easily frustrated learner so unless i wanna end up spending a shit load on lessons and having a generally shit time, this is good for me i think. i don't want stress in my life and learning in a manual with mummy dearest was just hell. i hate gears. yes, i'm a wuss.

i'm eating a lot of unsalted peanuts now because i need more protein in my diet.

RE: Life of an Attention Whore

I always hoped you were the more fucked up one out of the two of us, but here I am reading about money, driving lessons and unsalted peanuts.
How does having your shit together feel like?

hoping i can get a job as a scaffolder off this fella i live with whose boss is desperate for labourers

i wanna avoid the off-season bullshit this slaughterhouse job comes with, less hand pain would be nice too (more back pain though, yay!)

Life of an Attention Whore

on second thought i talked to the supervisor and the off season is way away at the end of july and i'm starting to get used to working here so i'll stay for now. will look for another job or whatever like two months before the off season begins idk but being a scaffolder labourer or w/e probably wouldn't work oout because i'm not very strong and honestly since i'm getting used to the slaughterhouse i don't really wanna go through the whole "new job" shit just yet

third week done and dusted. will book a driving lesson tomorrow. wanna begin next sunday. i hope they do sundays lel cuz it's the only day im not bloody busy

an a completely unrelated note, fucking chinese cunts so FUCKING many of the loud disgusting insects living here now. petey boy and i had a fun yarn about them the other night. this fat korean chick is even worse than the chinese though.

i dunno if i'm even racist tbh. i think i just hate foreign cultures or whatever. like i don't mind if you're african or whatever as long as you act like us but all these chinese cunts living here don't do that it's fucking GAY idk fuck your shit culture, be western or something. or idk just stop eating with your mouth open and speak english and STOP BEING SO LOUD AND ARROGANT like fuckkng manners are a thing you absolutely daft cunts (as though the two-faced bastards don't know perfectly well what they're fucken doing)

Life of an Attention Whore

just had nearly all of my clothes stolen off of the washing line here

got the owner looking into security footage rn

fucking scum

edit: found the fella. apparently he seemed in a rush and just grabbed everything on that line (he had some clothes next to mine). dunno how legit this is but he texted the owner, apologised and is gonna bring them back in (tomorrow i assume? it's kinda late now)

bleh. he's one of the cool fellas here, in the process of moving out. hope it was a genuine mistake and not ill intent or w/e. hope i get my fucking clothes back at least :|
