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.

RE: Why was your day great?
Watched a fun youtube vid, and then I walked up to a neighbor's house to see their dog (we've watched him before and are good friends with the family. Dog is a cute little Havanese puppy who never runs out of energy), walked him, played with him, and got $5 for it. Awesome.

RE: Why was your day great?
One. I turned 15.
Two. We got a Christmas tree. Normally we would do so the first weekend of December, but since my oldest sister won't be here next weekend, we did it this weekend. Had a good time getting it, as well as putting the ornaments and shit on.
Three. While reading "Patton, Montgomery, Rommel", I saw a picture of Erwin Rommel petting a young fox during his WWI military service.

RE: Why was your day great?
Gotta do this mega structure project, which is due Jan. 4th. I'm doing the WTC and the plaza out of legos. I'm into mega structures and building them and I can't wait to get started.
We're finally getting an assignment that I would actually sit down and do.

Not that I want to paint anything negative or scare you or something...but you do notice you can't eat anything to "hard" for a few days after getting braces?

Sisters are home today. No babysitting. It's about god damned time.
I'm gonna go black out now due to lack of sleep.

Today I got in school suspension and got to read the whole time, pretty awesome seeing as how the teacher let us talk some and sleep.
So, is the why was your day awful thread always longer than the why your day was great thread?
