I have 2 parts to this topic, a rant and a thing that makes me super happy but a little sad at the same time.
So yesterday I got soo upset because my homework was way too hard and confusing right? Well I wanted my sister to help me with it but she was being a jerk and wouldn't help me. So, I was forced to ask my dad for help and it went horriblely!! I'm one of those people that havew a different way of learning things and my dad doesn't get that. So he was being really rude to me for not getting it the way he was explaining it and it was upsetting me. So he just gave me a whole bunch of answers to write down that I didn't get and so after a while I lied and said that that was all that I needed to do tonight and he let me go but not before he told me that I was giving him additude. (I was not giving additude, I was trying to explain some things we do in class to get full points and he wouldn't let me do that.) So then I know that most of the answers were wrong because I didn't need help on some problems and I could've figured it out on my own but he wouldn't let me. So then when I said I was done I went into our office and erased all of his answers and put my own and tried to work out the rest of them but I still had some not figured out. So then I had to ask my teacher for help and she just gave me a stupid "I don't get it" sheet. (I don't get how to do that sheet!)
Ok, this is the happy but a little sad part: Well, when I was in the office fixing my homework, my mom was telling me about she was talking to Enga (Kjer's mom...) about other schooling styles besides public school and my mom did more research on it and found out about this school up in Battle Ground that is much smaller than my school now and they can focus on each students learning styles easier. So if I go to that school then they can help me with my weird learning style. So sometime in March I will be learning about the school and stuff and then a week later I will take an assessment to see if I can go to the school.
I really want to go to the school cause my grades will be better and I will be able to get a fresh start where no one knows me or of my really annoying past. But the sad thing will be leaving all my friends at the school I'm at now. I have so many close ones this year and I would miss them. I would love to be able to leave a few annoing people though but I would still miss all my good friends. I would miss Ian a lot more than any of them I think. I've known him since third grade and he's actually starting to become friends with me now. Not too close yet though. I would miss Von and what a good drawer he is. I would hurt Paige too much though. She was crying a lot today at lunch when she thought her friend was being taken away from her mom again by her dad and having to move far away. (But it turned out that she wasn't going to be taken away and she was just tardy today) If she found out that I was going to leave and go to another school then she might be sad for soo long. I don't want to do that. Lindsay would miss me, Taryn, Tyler, Jonica, Elana, Melissa, Kare-Bear (Kara K), Sarah, Ian might even miss me. Maybe even Brennan... I don't really know if I should go. I could stay here and leave excel and be with my friends and be able to keep the math up or I can leave the school I'm at and go to the Battle Ground school. My sister probably would stay at Shahala since she has good grades and has lots of friends here. She might not though since she will be going to Union High School and she might not want to go there. But she would still be at a different school... In school, I'm already working 5 times harder than I've ever had to work just to keep my grades up. It's so frusterating!!
My mom likes how the other school is more parent ummm helping out stuff. More like how my elementry school was. More parent involvment...
If I do decide to go to the smaller school then I would probably get like a whole bunch of new clothes that are ten times cooler than the clothes I have now. I just can't afford those clothes right now... I would probably get my friend's sister to give me a straight perm and get her to dye my hair and stuff for me for probably a small fee. and then I would have a perfessional do my make-up and stuff... I could probably make so many more friends there. No one would know my horrible past of dress wearing days and crying over nothing... It would be sooo cool!!
So I need some advice: Do I go to the smaller school and get better help and better grades and be able to start over or should I stay where I am and try to get my grades up and get so frusterated and upset that I go crazy possible?? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
