The title is self explanatory. everything about going back to school sucks (unless your looking for a fresh start, and friends, but the cons outway the pros.). the commercials, the anticipation ruining what summer you have left, an finally, going back to your respective dumpster of knowledge (lawl). After we go back, share your pathetic stories with us. yes, i'm in a sour mood, but who isn't this time of year? Anyway, time to suffer.

School is pretty good it beats the hell out of working, all you do is sit around all day and acquire knowledge and some times you might go play a sport which is fun any way, trust me when you leave school you will wish that it hadn't gone so quick.

the commercials

Eh, I am free from that.

I could correct you, but I won't. And what cons? That you have to wake up in the morning and actually do something?
an finally, going back to your respective dumpster of knowledge

I don't find it funny...school's not so bad. Knowledge is good, you'll be thankful for school when you're older.

I have a pretty good school horror story already...but the teacher involved is at my old school, so I won't have to worry about her anymore.
Anyway, time to suffer.

Eh, the only thing I don't like about school is waking up early, and once I get used to it, even that isn't so bad. I prefer working all day to sitting around doing comparatively nothing all day. At least working is something, and it's not boring. I like my brains to get some exercise.

1. EVERYTHING you did during summer is impossible... School is the exact opposite of summer, and summer is a good time, so therefore school is a bad time =D

there are many pros about school. and i try to just focus on them. like the fact that im going to a new school with new people and teachers, and that I won't be around my family as much. (but still a lot since my mom works at my school )

School isn't bad... It is essential!

Even if you're effing home-schooled, that's still school.

School would be better if they didnt give you work outside. Your work should be done in class because...cmon i have a life. i sit in school for 6 hours, then woot i get to go home and do more!

How am i supposed to fit Vampire Diaries into my schedule!?

Today in college, I spent time browsing the internet and playing with balloons, in order to perpetuate teamwork. THE HORROR! /sarcasm

Ah, the first day, yesterday. Anxiety always plays it up.

Good and slow, the only thing I'm worried about is that my Pre-Cal teacher can only speak Engrish, and the stereotypical ghetto kids in my Economics class.. I'm surrounded by them. O_O

School would be better if they didnt give you work outside.

What type of school do you have? I would kill (yes, but only something small that I would have already, like a dove or an idiot) to go and work outside, even in the hundred some degree heat.
Your work should be done in class because...cmon i have a life. i sit in school for 6 hours, then woot i get to go home and do more!

With block scheduling, there's more than enough time to get work done in class, but I can assume you don't have that.

I really don't have much of a problem with that, this year. The only thing I expect to have for homework is maybe 20 minutes worth of Physics twice a week, and 10-30 daily for my Pre-Cal.

How am i supposed to fit Vampire Diaries into my schedule!?
As we're on the subject of school, my English teachers would have started cracking up at that. Last year, the only genre of fiction (other than NSFW stuff) that my English teacher didn't allow us to write reports on was "New-Age" vampire. She was perfectly fine with when they were emaciated, rotting, corpses.

Today in college, I spent time browsing the internet and playing with balloons, in order to perpetuate teamwork. THE HORROR! /sarcasm

You holding out on us, mate?
From what you explained of the balloons, I can understand that helping with teamwork, but browsing the interwebs?

*Sings* School, school, school~
It cures my boredom. I love it, even though I would rather stay home and bake cookies with y'all. Brownies too.

ooh that is so sad. it makes me having to wake up at 6:30 and then having 6 hours of school seem wimpy. what i really dislike is that they give you work to do after school is over.

I don't really dislike the idea of going to school again. The only thing i don't like is the idea of having homework again and the teachers that keep complaining haha. And ofcourse the testweeks

But i like it that i can see my friends again every day, and some of my teachers are really funny and friendly.
