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.

So it that wonderful time where there is only a few days/weeks of school left. Summer vacation filled with sleep, fun, and no homework or teachers. YAY for the lucky Seniors who are done with school.
I am so happy. Only 4 more days for me and I don't have to go on the last day.
I have survived the first year of high school with only three more to go. I might just make it.
So how long do you have left till Summer Vacation?
What are your plans for summer?
How damn happy are you?! WOOOOOO~!

I've been done with school since December, but here is what I plan on doing over the summer:
-Try to further my music career
-Video games
-Hang out with friends
-Get drunk and/or high
-overcome my fear of driving
-free-running
-Plan A: Get laid... if this fails, which it probably will:
-Plan B: Porn & masturbation
My Parents say now that I am old enough to actually do manual labor, I am going to work msot of my summer, and I don't think they are bluffing. Here is how (I assume) it will be:
60% working for my parents (mowing lawn, helping my dad with his projects. ect.)
Do whatever u want, techers cant get u back at the end of the day, that means NO CONSEQUENCES!
BEAT THEM, PHUCK UP THEIR CARS!
REVENGE! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

4 weeks to go, But 3 day weekend after this week (I officially get out on june 15 but there's no way in hell I'm going to show up on monday for the last day of school.) The last day of school is the talent show/field day etc. But I don't care if there giving out 20 dollars to every kid that comes it's not worth being in that hell hole for another day.
