School is the worst thing in the world. I’m so overwhelmed by the work! The teachers are abnoxious. Any advice other than to kill them?!?! 🙁
November 2, 2011 1:14 am at 1:14 am #823635BSDMemberBribe them.
November 2, 2011 1:16 am at 1:16 am #823636popa_bar_abbaParticipantDid you try that first, before coming looking for other ideas?
🙂
November 2, 2011 1:24 am at 1:24 am #823637lovinghalachaMember‘Knowledge is power’ – school is where you are meant to be now so try and make the best of it!! Don’t let the stress get to you and make you cynical toward something that is mundane and constant in your life. Much Hatzlocha!

November 2, 2011 3:17 am at 3:17 am #823642yoyaMembergumball, maybe it’s not the best idea to let e/o know what grade ur in…..its not good to give out personal info,,,
November 2, 2011 3:33 am at 3:33 am #823643TheGoqParticipantBlabla what specifically is the problem with the teachers maybe if you tell us we can give you some ideas so you can cope with it, if the workload is too much that is something u need to talk about with your parents.
November 2, 2011 4:37 am at 4:37 am #823644RABBAIMParticipantLook in the mirror and if you are honest with self you will see that all the faults you see in the teachers really exist within yourself.
November 2, 2011 4:52 am at 4:52 am #823645blablaParticipanttoomuch-yeah I already gave up on the social situation. I’m long gone. No friends at all…maybe we should hook up. No friends + bad teachers=disaster. I give up…Its what everyone in my class somehow lives with and I can’t. This world is full of smart people besides for me.
November 2, 2011 9:50 am at 9:50 am #823646Shticky GuyParticipantAw come on! Its not that bad. When you were in elementary school you must have thought its the hardest thing. Now looking back you realize it was ok after all. And when you go to yeshiva gedola/sem? and look back at this stage of your life, you will think hey it wasnt so bad really compared to what I am doing now. The only abnoxious teacher was my spelling teacher. The others were only obnoxious. So make the most of it.
And if you think you cant have fun in school, look at this hilarious school pranks thread:
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/being-a-macher
November 2, 2011 5:09 pm at 5:09 pm #823647blablaParticipantI read that thread and the problem is those things don’t work in my school. My principal’s the kind of person you respect, not just listen to and everything goes straight to them.
November 2, 2011 6:59 pm at 6:59 pm #823648bptParticipantYes. Get married, have a kid, and then, you’ll be an instant authority on all things, big and small. And then, you can come back to same school and tell them how YOU think things should be done.
(come in with the right attitude / right shaitel, and they will actually listen to you!)
November 2, 2011 7:07 pm at 7:07 pm #823649adorableParticipantright sheitel is more important than right attitude….
November 2, 2011 7:17 pm at 7:17 pm #823650charlie brownMemberAny advice other than to kill them?!?! 🙁
if you kill your teachers don’t post that here in the CR – it will blow your identity.
(yes, I am kidding this time).
November 2, 2011 7:18 pm at 7:18 pm #823651charlie brownMemberbut seriously, you wrote that you respect the principal. Can you talk to her about the situation? Any one teacher you can open up to?
November 2, 2011 7:31 pm at 7:31 pm #823652adorableParticipantIm laughing from just reading your post and imagining that I could have written the same exact thing! LOL
November 2, 2011 7:44 pm at 7:44 pm #823653charlie brownMemberadorable – who are you talking to?
November 2, 2011 7:47 pm at 7:47 pm #823654tryinghardMemberhodulashem-Ye Ms. Hodu, thank hashem for the good he gives you now. That stage is past and will never return. Always looking back does no good. You can just bump your nose…. Enjoy the present. It too will one day be the “very much missed past”.
November 2, 2011 8:00 pm at 8:00 pm #823655bptParticipant“right sheitel is more important than right attitude…. “
Ah, spoke like a true Shana Rishona!
November 2, 2011 9:12 pm at 9:12 pm #823656adorableParticipantbpt- not yet. lol but you are making me laugh!
I was talking to the OP here!
November 2, 2011 9:37 pm at 9:37 pm #823657supergirl613MemberBlabla, can WE PLEASE DROP OUT OF SCHOOL 2GETHER??????? i hate school 2, so u are not alone in this!! I’m not either a popular girl so I have like 2 friends who I can’t really even call my best friends. Maybe I have like 5 friends tops but absolutely NO BEST FRIENDS!!!! Maybe you can come to my school and we’ll be friends!!!
November 2, 2011 10:00 pm at 10:00 pm #8236582scentsParticipantwhat else would you like to do those hours that you are out of bed?
November 2, 2011 10:57 pm at 10:57 pm #823659GumBallMemberUh Hi everyne n CR knows da grade im in…
November 2, 2011 11:25 pm at 11:25 pm #823660observanteenMemberblabla: When you’re in a difficult situation it seems as if your happiness lays somewhere else. Life, (AND death for that matter)is ALWAYS challenging. Frankly, I was only too happy to leave school, but while I was there, I tried making the best out of it. Do you think working, getting married, raising kids IS easy?
It all boils down to the same thing – your attitude.
Good luck!
supergirl: What do you mean by “best friend”? Let me tell you, I had a “best friend”. And to say the least, it ruined me. Now I have 3-4 close friends – and I can honestly say, I’m happier now than I ever was! I don’t think it’s necessary to have a best friend with whom to share EVERYTHING. IY”H, you’ll get married one day, and your husband will truly be your very best friend.
November 2, 2011 11:58 pm at 11:58 pm #823661blablaParticipantOkay so I realized the way phraised this thread makes me sound like a teenager big time (which I am) but for real, its not something I can talk to principals about. Once upon a time when I was in elementary, teachers said I was smart. What happened to the smart girl in me?! Why am I so utterly lost?! I am drowning in school…between teachers and friends…
November 3, 2011 12:15 am at 12:15 am #823662zaidy78ParticipantTry flunking school. It today’s age, they’ll never keep a student back another year because its way too TRAMATIC. That would ruin the kids for good. They’ll probably give you a B just because it makes the school look bad if anyone scores lower.
Good luck! Most of what your learning now makes no real difference in the real world. Unless you want to be a doctor(science) or a contractor(geometry).
The whole school system is meant to prepare students for college, s/t very few in our community will even attempt.
November 3, 2011 12:16 am at 12:16 am #823663supergirl613MemberIn my school we have kvutzah systems which means they place you in your level of hebrew. so if you are very smart. you will be in the highest. very not smart, lowest. in between middle. but it goes according to how you do in hebrew. then they have the same for math, except there is only 3 levels. the lowest math level-algebra, a little higher but not so good in math-algebra but a little more advanced and very good in math- goeomatery. it’s a very good system and for that reason I’m doing well in hebrew and in math. also observateen, B”H I have my group of 3-4 close friends.
November 3, 2011 12:40 am at 12:40 am #823664kapustaParticipantAre you friendly with anyone out of school? While school is a great place to meet new friends, its not the only place. Have any cousins or neighbors similar in age? On that note, a friend doesn’t even need to be from your class.
Maybe during one recess or lunch join a conversation. You don’t need to be the center of it, but stand close enough to say something and be part of it.
If you feel that recess and lunch is spent at your desk doing homework, ask a teacher or your principal if theres something extra-curricular for you to be involved in. Better yet, come up with something. A gemach, chessed project etc. If you feel comfortable and you’re school has an elementary in the same building, maybe you can tutor someone in a younger grade who needs help.
Hatzlacha
November 3, 2011 1:20 am at 1:20 am #823665toomuch00Membersupergirl and blabla- Im serious can we meet up? How do I know you guys like ARENT in my class? Lol! No its crazy i really have social anxiety. I also have like 5 “friends” who are my group in school, but no best friend who i can talk to about my life. Its not normal. And i KNOW im gonna look back and think these were great carefree years and I do have my great and awesome times of being a teenager its just I WISH i would be satisfied with my friends, but im not, and i cant get closer to them or other girls because im a social freak! and the most akwardest/quirkiest girl. Whew that felt good i tell ya! thanx for listening!
November 3, 2011 2:35 am at 2:35 am #823667brotherofursParticipantmy school is also tracked by the levels of the girls in each class, this way every girl is able to succeed. MAybe you can get a tutor? or maybe even a girl in the clss to help yu,-who knows? maybe you’ll get close to her:)
its really crazy i feel like every teenager feels the same way. i’ve heard from many girls the same stories as u guyz sadly :(. and last year i was having a hard time with friends and stuff too. this year b”H it got better and it was all to my benefit that i went through that! i think i truly realized what it means to appreciate the friends that i have now. I wouldn’t have appreciated them in the past..
anyway im trying to tell you that that everything your going through now is to make you the best person you can be and is designed especially for you by the creator of the world! just keep that in mind as you go through challenges and pray to Hashem that you should see the good in what He’s doing.
.. by the way it helps with friends issues to become friends with the people that don’t have friends instead of the ‘popular people’. You can become close to people who really want you as a friend and will appreciate you, (not people who you follow around and they hardly notice)
Juust stay happy! give to others and pray to Hashem to help you overcome your challenge and remember to thank Him and appreciate everything. GL!
November 3, 2011 4:04 am at 4:04 am #823668Sister BearMemberblabla I wanna give you a air hug!!!!! I know how hard school is and how you want to punch some teachers in the face (big time, there’s like a line where I am to do that :)) and I have been coming home some days almost depressed, and I Baruch Hashem have a group of friends I can talk to.
But from what little experience I know, if you feel this way about your teachers, then probably other girls do to. So why not talk about it with them and come up with a way the principal can help you guys!!!
Hatzlacha!!
(oh and practical advice…I’m about to do that now, is do kickboxing or tae-bo and every time you punch think of someone else who’s face your punching i.e. your teacher…it’s supposed to help!
November 3, 2011 12:51 pm at 12:51 pm #823669BTGuyParticipantHow do you think the teachers feel? : )
November 3, 2011 9:09 pm at 9:09 pm #823670GumBallMemberMY TEACHER ROX!! I LOVE HER TOOONZZ!! :0
November 3, 2011 9:43 pm at 9:43 pm #823671tzvideerMemberblabla
i must say i think your post is rather obnoxious, i hope this doesnt reflect on you.
your teacheres are probably doing their best, having been a teacher for many years i have discovered that kids who think their teachers are obnoxious are usually saying that about the person they see in the mirror
and to write publicly “other than to kill them”, why??, did they try to kill you??!!, i know of kids who “killed” their teacher many times over, do you really think their teachers deserved that??!!! in most cases, not at all!!!!!
so why do you write that??!!!
i can understand school may be difficult these days, you may be feeling overwhelemed, the teachers may not empathise with you enough, and there may be a host of other problems.
and yes, maybe you want to discuss it in the coffee room and ‘some’ people here can give good empathy and advice……
but NEVER lose the respect you owe your teachers who for the most part spend days and nights, blood, money and lots of sweat, to give you the best experience possible, to give you the best opportunity to make your life the best possible.
even if things get tough, never for one minute should we forget to give them the respect that they deserve.
and imagine she is here in the coffee room reading your post, how would she feel???
November 3, 2011 10:17 pm at 10:17 pm #823672supergirl613MemberGumball right now for some strange reason you think everything rox about school!! i dont know why though.
November 3, 2011 11:56 pm at 11:56 pm #823673GumBallMemberWELL CUZ IM IN 8th GRADE!! OMG WHAT SHUD I DO IF IM OVERLY OBSESSED WITH MY HEAVEN BEYOND TEACHER?? AAAHHHH!! IM TOO OBSESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 4, 2011 12:10 am at 12:10 am #823674blablaParticipanttzvideer-When teachers have wronged you the amount that they have wronged me, you loose respect for them. When adults have wronged you the way they’ve wronged me, you loose respect for all your elders.
November 4, 2011 1:30 am at 1:30 am #823675toomuch00MemberI feel like noone ever responds to my posts. =(
November 4, 2011 1:58 am at 1:58 am #823676OneOfManyParticipanttoomuch00: *response*
November 4, 2011 2:19 am at 2:19 am #823677toomuch00Memberoneofmany-thaanx. But i mean my posts that require answers. Im drowning here =(
November 4, 2011 2:42 am at 2:42 am #823678OneOfManyParticipanttoomuch00: Well, I *guess* I can help you with that, too…:P
When I was in high school (back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth), I was kinda in a similar situation. I pretty much stayed out of the social scene, thinking all the girls were flighty and obnoxious, and stuck to my little, loose group of friends. Now that I look back, I don’t think what I did was so mature. :/ But I feel what you are saying.
My advice – you don’t have to be friends with EVERYBODY. Nor do you have to hate them. If you have some people to hang out/study with, it’s enough. Just be civil to the rest, and they may even turn out decent.
And as for close friends – I have more of them from my year of seminary than all previous twelve combined. 😉
