Re: Did you like school?

(Anonymous) 2016-09-09 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
At first, yes. My first two years of high school were some of the happiest days of my life. After that, well... things deteriorated pretty quickly. My best friend decided I wasn't cool enough to hang out with anymore, so she literally ignored me for the rest of the years she attended the school. Our mutual friends liked her better (she was the "queen bee" of the group) so basically everyone hung out with her while I: 1) ate lunch alone on the opposite side of the eating area, 2) ate lunch in the bathroom, although this was only once or twice if I recall correctly, or 3) spent lunchtime studying alone in the library.

After that, I tried making new friends, but the only kids who seemed interested in hanging out with me were "nerds" like myself and it was kind of awkward because we all knew that no one wanted to hang out with us. In my final year of high school, I tried to get into another group of friends and almost succeeded - until I was basically bullied out of the group by one of them. I was so happy when I graduated.

As for the teachers, I had some nice ones and some really good ones. One of them was a bully who taught my geography class once every two weeks. I dreaded her classes so much. I was also a kind of teacher's pet and everyone knew it, so while my grades were pretty good, it didn't exactly help me make friends.

In university, the (social) situation improved, but only because there was no one there to bully me. Also, rather than leave me out of groups because I got good grades or because I liked "nerdy" things, the students just ignored me in general unless I approached someone or asked a question. I could count on one hand how many friends I made there, and I haven't heard from any of them since graduating years and years ago. I was also happy to graduate from university because it meant I was finally free of the shitty education system, free of classes with fixed times, free of forced interaction, etc. After uni, I was finally free to do whatever I wanted and have never felt any desire to go back.
