school feels like such a waste of time for me. most lessons feel pointless because the structure doesn’t work. a lot of the time, classes are either too slow or too boring, which makes it hard to stay focused. and even when i try, the environment is so distracting. there’s constant talking, disruptions, or conversations about things that have nothing to do with the lesson.

out of a full hour of class, maybe 30% of the time is actually useful. the rest feels wasted. chemistry is the only real exception because the teacher keeps us on track. we actually get through the material and use the time well. but in most other subjects, i don’t even pay attention anymore.

when a test comes up, i just study on my own. i read the summary, watch some videos, and that’s enough for me to get good grades. it’s frustrating because it shows how unnecessary most of the lessons feel. i could learn the same material in half the time if i just did it on my own.

it’s also impossible for me to focus on exercises in class. the constant noise and distractions make it so much harder to work. i know i’m capable of doing the work, and when i’m on my own, i do it really well. starting is hard, but once i begin, i get into a flow and actually make progress.

school just isn’t built for how i learn best. it feels inefficient and frustrating, like i’m wasting so much time just sitting there when i could be getting so much more done on my own terms.
