The worst parts for me are PE and homework.

School here is cool, it's good and funny to talk with classmates, especially on the lessons lol. But there is one teacher I hate in my school and he's a chemistry teacher. The problem is that he's always rude and mean.
Because of that, two years ago, when I was at 7th grade, I had to skip his lessons (they were the last ones in the lesson list) for 2 months! After these two months, when he looked in the class journal and saw that I have skipped a bunch of his lessons, he decided to call my parents on a phone. He told them that I have skipped his lessons for an unknown reason, though parents had no idea about this. After that "scary" call, my parents almost killed me (of course not literally).
After this event, I stopped skipping this teacher's lessons, but he has began to be even more rude, especially to me, for a few months. It was a hard time to be on his lessons, but I somehow survived that.
Anyway, that's it. I can't remember of other bad times at school, probably because there were no bad times there at all (except for this f****** teacher!!!).

I feel you, my kindergarten teachers and TAs were all jerks (except two) and my 6th grade English teacher was super lazy and even told us NOT to ask questions! What kind of teacher does that?!?!?

What kind of teachers are these? I have never heard about kindergarten and TA lessons. But yeah, I think every school has 1 or 2... or even more "evil" teachers.

Woah, lol. We had a similar teacher as well a few years ago, but not for a long time, lately he was replaced with another teacher. But before that, I had to go on some extra lessons to learn and improve my english, but as you can see, it's still not perfect (and will probably never be).

Kindergarten is usually between preschool and first grade. My kindergarten teacher, who I hated, left to go have a baby and she was replaced by someone who was much nicer. My old kindergarten teacher literally had a tantrum when I forgot my homework one day ;-;
TAs are teachers' assistants

If I had to choose one, it would be the students adapting to sexual humour in 7th grade. And now it's their fault I know more about that crap than I want to.

I started college this year and for a start the bus journey takes an hour both ways and the particular bus I take is always crowded. A lot of old people board to go to the town centre by my college or get to my town so generally a lot of people are left standing. The bus is super unreliable too. For example, today I speedwalked to the next town over to get the bus earlier and actually get a seat but I was half a minute late and missed it. When the second bus came they'd sent the smallest, shittiest bus and there were literally <20 seats and about 30+ people trying to board. Then it started flooding.
I think the second worst part was when I chose to do Art and Design and I had the WORST teacher. She was about 50 with an annoying voice and always got angry with me because I worked too slow even though my work was incredibly detailed. She was also very vague about certain things we had to do (eg: we had to put stuff in sketchbooks but I didn't really understand.) We would only spend 2 or 3 lessons on a piece of work so it got very stressful and I had to stop working on one to start the other so eventually I had 0 out of 4 or 5 projects done.
I stopped going to the lessons in the end and managed to drop out completely after the student support officer reccommended I do, so now I only do Law, Psychology and Spanish.

Would you have to have completed the Art and Design classes to actually get anywhere? I've seen your work, and it's really amazing, I don't know why you'd need to take classes to get anywhere in a career like that.

It's all about the piece of paper college degree.

I mean, my dad dropped out of medical school and never got his college degree in that type of department but he still got a job, and now he's a senior supervisor at our local ambulance company earning the big bux. You'd think that would need a college degree over Art and Design, right?

I think it's more about learning various techniques and getting opportunities to show your work to people outside the internet rather than trying to get the piece of paper.

I don't really know that many people outside of the Internet that appreciate art as much as people on the Internet that do though, so I can't imagine there being a lot of opportunities for that?

Favorite part of homeschooling is the fact I can do it whenever I want.
Worst part of going to a homeschool coop is how two-faced the Christian leadership is there. Not all Christians are perfect, I suppose, but this is outright ridiculous because everyone who's experienced the two-facedness has been expelled, and as a result, nobody there knows about it. I might as well leave it as well after my particular incident. I feel sorry for the innocent kindergarten, first grade, second grade souls there who have no idea what a childish tyrrany is running and funding them.
Joey, if you see this I'll tell you more about it later as you said you were open to hearing me out. (:

The problem is in art courses you also have to produce a lot of work, which I'm not good at. I haven't finished a drawing since mid-last year which I guess made it hard to start back up at such a fast pace on top of other subjects.
I could stay at college for a third year and do an Extended Diploma in Art and Design but I'd rather go to university and study forensic psychology.

Honestly I'd say to hell with a degree, you're really good at art, that is the biggest plus, you should do it as a hobby or an occasional indie job. There's people like me who are artistically inept, so just being able to be good at it is already something that can and should qualify you for any jobs.

For me, it's usually a general juggle between peer drama and grades.

My geography teacher... Oh god...
Basically he doesn't explain barelly anything, and he talks so slow that it's impossible to be even slightly interested. Also last simester he gave us a test like every 2 classes... Also, he put stuff we DIDN"T EVER LEARN, on a test, then he gave someone a point even though it was wrong (because we didn't learn it) because it was "close". If we didn't learn it the give everyone a god damn point (No one else got the point BTW).
Just... ungh.

Most social aspects bring me down at school, since I'm not much of a talker and more of a loner. I can take being alone on off hours but I get really annoyed when we have to pair up into groups in class. Because I just sit there at my desk and wait for most groups to form, then the teacher(s) pair me up people in need of another member.
My lack of the ability to socialize started in middle school where I was bullied more verbally than physically. I was treated as an outcast, but luckily one of my friends from my past transferred to the school so I survived. When I graduated into high school, my friend went to a different school so I was left alone. By that time I completely lost all social skills I had before middle school, so I couldn't really make friends. T_T
