I go back to hell on the 23rd if I remember right. I hate school (not because of learning but the way my education plan is set up and how the administration treats me) is downright horrible and I'm dreading that day
I, too, am procrastinating on my summer homework. Not because I don't like doing it, but because it makes me sick every time I even think of it

I go back September 6th or 7th, I can remember which of the two. suckers
I've also been putting off summer homework, rip. I have to read All Quiet on the Western Front for Honors English. It came with a packet, and if I remember correctly, I have to be ready to write an essay on it during the first week of school. ironically, this book is one I've been wanting to read for quite some time, and I do enjoy reading in my free time, yet I keep putting it off to the last minute. help

i get back sometime in august. how was band camp? camp was interesting. i had a decent time, but it was my first year as a counselor and the pressure to socialize + being around people for 120 hrs straight was awful. my campers were really sweet though and i enjoyed the activities and music we played! what have you been doing this summer? |

I have a rare developmental thing that is vey similar to mild autism (although it isn't autism, there's definitely a lot of similarities) and the administration gives me the worst IEP (they don't even follow it 90% of the time) and tries to "cure" my "autism" which 1) can't be done and 2) it isn't autism??? one time a counselor pulled me aside and referred to it as autism, I corrected her only to be told "autism is an umbrella term though" which is really a load of crap??? school also tries to stop my bizarre and peculiar interests and refers to them as "bad" and "not socially attractive" which really helps my low self esteem  )))) tl;dr school administration sucks and ieps are hell, 0/10 would not recommend |

Do you need any help with your homework? i have homework for ap chem and ap lang, and i've never taken chem before so i'm struggling with it tbh but i'm figuring it out. ap lang is mostly activities to do with articles from a packet which i don't mind doing but i'm just lazy. i don't need help at the moment but thank you for the offer! |

I mean if I can write a comic about it then I'm probably obsessed. like all you have to do is make a passing reference to an opera and I go nuts -there's these machines called mold-a-ramas that are really neato??? you put in quarters and it makes you a little wax figure right before your eyes. all of the machines and most of the molds are over half a century old and their history is actually really interesting??? I collect the molds -animation and it's history and evolution -the evolution and history of toys as well and how they've changed over the centuries, because I'm a pathetic womanchild that never figured out what maturity is -pretty much anything i put in my comic tbh -I'm really into the works and puppetry of Jim Henson for some reason -bizarre and pointless facts -tbh warriors was (is???) one of them because nobody around me except for The Jerky Manipulative Friend Referred to as Iceheart and my nicer friend (who only read like the first four books anyway lmao) read them, which is what drew me to the site: i wanted to be able to talk about at least one of these things with other people -I'm the only person I know who actually likes Darkstripe (he's my favorite character in warriors tbh) there's a lot more but i can't think of them atm. my friends luckily are totally fine with these things (operas (Don Giovanni in particular) have become basically a meme among us) but of course I have constant suspicions that they hate to tolerate it |
