Lately I've been wondering about school and how much work we do. How much we have to go through. How much time we have to waste. Six hours down the drain learning near to nothing.
When the teachers tell us to stop talking, I always want to say that we're working on our social skills. I mean, it's more important than what we're supposed to be doing. Seriously.
The part of the day that I look most forward to is after the bell rings. That's when I see everyone. That's when I actually have fun. That's when I socialize. That's when everyone comes together. One of the best events of my day is watching Kevin, Oliver, and Chris "playing". I think that some of the teachers think they're fighting at first sight, but they're not. Oliver jumps on people's backs (people that he knows well), Kevin gets attacked, and Chris is just the topping of it all. He doesn't do much, but it still makes them the Oddball Three. I came up with that name today, seeing Kevin with Oliver on his back as Chris told Kevin to fall on his back.
Awhile back, in the girl's locker room, we were talking about how we were so smart and how we should get paid for being so smart (I have no clue how we got on that subject). Today, I started thinking about what we have to go through for school. How we waste so much time gaining so little. Then I started thinking that... you know what? We should get paid for just going to school. It'd keep teenagers in school. It'd be worth the money.
I don't get an allowance. I don't get money from relatives or family for getting good grades. I don't get relatives that say "Hey, if you do this, I'll get you a new phone", etc.
So I was thinking we should get paid for doing what we have to do. It gets hard for me to do something that I hate doing. Maybe, just maybe, if I get paid for doing it, I'd try doing it better. I mean... really. We should get paid for staying in school/doing well. It makes sense.
Teenagers have to go through hormones, moodswings, peer pressure, love triangles, family problems, relationship problems, broken hearts... life gets hard as it is, and putting tests and homework on top of it makes it worse. Then people start thinking that you're depressed and you need help when you just need to get away from EVERYTHING, and no one understands. Shrinks just put you on anti-depressants. Then if we want to get money, we have to get a job, which just wastes more time, making everything even worse.
And teachers think they have it bad....

O P H E L I A C
by Emilie Autumn
I'm your Opheliac
I've been so disillusioned
I know you'd take me back
But still I feign confusion
I couldn't be your friend
My world was too unstable
You might have seen the end
But you were never able
To keep me breathing
As the water rises up again
Before I slip away
You know the games I play
And the words I say
When I want my own way
You know the lies I tell
When you've gone through hell
And I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be
To keep believing in me
When everything and everyone
Becomes my enemy and when
There's nothing more you can do
I'm gonna blame it on you
It's not the way I want to be
I only hope that in the end you will see
It's the Opheliac in me
I'm your Opheliac
My stockings prove my virtue
I'm open to attack
But I don't want to hurt you
Whether I swim or sink
That's no concern of yours now
How could you possibly think
You had the power to know how
To keep me breathing
As the water rises up again
Before I slip away
You know the games I play
And the words I say
When I want my own way
You know the lies I tell
When you've gone through hell
And I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be
To keep believing in me
When everything and everyone
Becomes my enemy and when
There's nothing more you can do
I'm gonna blame it on you
It's not the way I want to be
I only hope that in the end you will see
It's the Opheliac in me
Studies show:
Intelligent girls are more depressed
Because they know
What the world is really like
Don't think for a beat it makes it better
When you sit her down and tell her
Everything gonna be all right
She knows in society she either is
A devil or an angel with no in between
She speaks in the third person
So she can forget that she's me
Doubt thou the stars are fire
Doubt thou the sun doth move
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt
Doubt thou the stars are fire
Doubt thou the sun doth move
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt I love
You know the games I play
And the words I say
When I want my own way
You know the lies I tell
When you've gone through hell
And I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be
To keep believing in me
When everything and everyone
Becomes my enemy and when
There's nothing more you can do
I'm gonna blame it on you
It's not the way I want to be
I only hope that in the end you will see
