Stream of Consciousness Essay

This year I really don't like school. I'm supposed to write about an event or something to describe who I am but I can't think of anything that important that I would actually feel comfortable posting up on a website for the whole world to see. So yeah, I figured I'd just write about how much I don't like school this year. After all, I guess that is an event because I do come to school everyday. And we all know how exciting 7 hours of school can be everyday. Well except for weekends and breaks, but you get the point. Speaking of breaks I seriously can't wait until Christmas break this year. School is just so annoying. I've always said I hated school but never really did, but this year I actually hate school. My friends are great and everything, and if they weren't here then I seriously wouldn't come. All of the classes, ap euro, chem., math, French, etc...are just so annoying. You sit there for an hour until your butt falls asleep and you're bored out of your mind. I mean when are we going to use cotangents, secants, cosecants. I bet you if I asked any adult they wouldn't have a clue what those are, because guess what they're useless unless you become a math teacher or a rocket scientist or something. Actually I bet rocket scientists don't even use it, they probably just pay some math teacher to do the calculations for them because they're the only ones on this planet that actually know how to do all that stuff. And that's great for them and all if that's what they honestly enjoy, but no thanks, sorry, not for me. Same thing with chem. Do you know how to find the energy of an electron in a major energy level, or exactly how many molecules are in one mole of something? Well I do, and it's not fun. Usually I don't really have the kind of attitude where you don't want to learn anything because like it or not we have to learn it anyway so might as well do it and get it over with. I just start thinking about all that stuff when I get annoyed because I'm thinking about school. I think the thing that annoys me most is the lack of sleep. By the time I get all my work done, like that 30 page paper for ap I had over the weekend (oh man don't even get my started on that, that was not cool) I'm just so tired. And then the same teachers who give you those huge assignments are the same ones that say participation counts for whatever percentage of your grade. It's kinda hard to participate when you're half asleep in class because you stayed up all night doing their homework assignment. There's this one teacher who I really don't like, ugh I "despise" her, and trust me I could go on for hours talking about her and all the stupid little things she does that really piss me off but I really don't feel like having her read this and then fail me for the year in that subject. Actually, even if she found out how much I hated her she wouldn't be able to fail me because I don't get failing grades in that class but I'm not gonna take the chance. This stream of consciousness thing is actually really cool, I'm liking it. But anyway back to what I was saying, I don't get enough sleep. And I've read in magazines and stuff that teenage hormones for sleep don't start to kick in until 11 o'clock, meanwhile we have to get up at 7, and believe me I don't go to bed until way after 11 most nights. Also in those magazines they say that teenagers need the most amount of sleep out of everyone, 9 hours, while adults only need 7. So lets do the math? According to my calculations, and you know my calculations have got to be right being that I sit through a million hours of math a day, I don't think the 6 hours of sleep that me, and probably a lot of other people get on average, are equal to the 9 that we're supposed to get. Whatever, it just annoys me. Wow that's a page already, trust me I could write so much more about this, you have no idea, but I'll spare you any further complaining because I don't want to be one of those annoying whiners.
