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.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Had the Most Amazing fucking day...

of my life. I saw The Devil Wears Prada, Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack!, Winds of Plague, Black Veil Brides, A Day to Remember, 3Oh!3, August Burns Red, and The Word Alive. Black Veil Brides was the God of all concerts. Got them to sign my converse, Andy gave me a grease paint mustache, and I got Ashely to sign my tits (which unfortunetly washed off and I didn't get a picture of it T-T) and take a picture with me too. They are so nice. Andy has to be one of the nicest people ever. I got caught in about 7 moshpits. My stomach is cut up and my legs are bruised. I'm pretty sure I've busted my toes because they've been numb since around 3 yesterday. I was forced to crowd surf for August Burns Red. I have a bruise on the back of my neck and a bitch ass sunburn all over my upper body. I chained smoked all day and ate nothing until around 9 last night. I probably sweat off most of the body weight I have left. I spent the entire day with my love and his best friend. I managed to get a Mistfits tie and an Alesana t-shirt. Oh and a condom after I told this guy I had a penis xD A free 40$ I-tunes card was inside some... thing-y they handed out. I listened to this random guy's band and bought their wristband because they're amazing. It was my first concert and the best day of my life. Seriously, if I died in some freak accident, I'd be 100% okay with that because my life has been made.

I'm back~

I would've gone anyways xD

And, I'm not much for Black Eyed Peas, but I heard (except for the superbowl) that they have some pretty kickass concerts.

Attack Attack! is kind of techno and Big Chocolate was there, if your into dubstep. Seriously, he is the king of dubstep.
