Random Weirdness

---

I have no education whats so ever (well some otherwise i wouldn't be able to spell) and i don't really know what i want to be and or know if I'm going to college (probably won't even graduate high school). So some1 just give me some ideas or something, or how i could focus more, because thats why I'm not passing i just can't focus long enough to read a book or anything inside school. I honestly can say i have never read a full book in my life. So if some people had/has the same problems i do, try and help me out please.

Whatever you do graduate high school.Have you been tested for ADD?Have you been tested for a learning disability?Don't worry about reading a whole book. Read what you need to read to get passed what you need to pass. Reading a whole book doesn't mean anything. Get the information you need whatever way works for you. Don't limit yourself to traditional methods of learning. Find what works for you and use it.For instance I hated algebra but liked chemistry the only time I could get anything out of algebra was if I related it to a real thing. Try things like that.

No my mom is taking me to get tested January 7th 4 adhdI know i want to pass high school but everything just to hard for me for some reason and i don't know why its hard and i have to learn like in a hands on way but i don't really know how to apply that to writing a aper for English or writing math problems. Plus in love drawing even though i suck at it, it's still fun, but i don't know how to apply those things to anything, thats what i need help with.

Welcome to A2A, OprahLuvsChicken.How far have you got in school so far? Personally I think school is over-rated, but now if you don't finish it your choices are very limited.Apart from drawing, what do you enjoy?

"Plus in love drawing even though i suck at it, it's still fun, but i don't know how to apply those things to anything, thats what i need help with."Is drafting offered at your school? You may really enjoy it.

not till nect year but i dont know if im going to pass this year.

Im a sophomore, but i need 21 credits to pass and i dont even have 4 yet, so i think im screwed, i like hands on things like building things, fixing things, sex but a lot of people enjoy that, and girls i think are my specialty haha trying not to brag but im being completely honest.

That sounds like Chance (Grvtykllr). Have you thought of going into one of the trades like building or cabinetmaking or plumbing or handyman stuff?

Maybe you could try approaching things in a different way. For instance, you like drawing, right. Well the next time an English assignment comes up draw a picture in your head of the subject of the assignment. If it's about the civil war draw a picture in your head the way you would render the civil war. Then describe the drawing that's in your head add a few relative facts and you've got yourself a paper. If you have to research a topic find something in that topic you find interesting and let it be your focus. Again take the civil war if you've got to do a report on it find some connection that makes it interesting to you. Maybe a battle took place locally. Maybe there's a gun that interest you that was used there. So on and so on.Approach tasks in manner that you can best relate to them not the way the tell you to.

yeah I've tried going into building trades but the class was booked so i have to wait till either next semester or next year.

That makes sense thanks ill try that.

Yeah I'm kind of a people person I'm always with some one and can really relate to any one, and i"m not afraid to speak what i want even though sometimes its bad, I've only made 1 enemy in my life so far. Like the idea of motivation you said, I've tried that with sports, girlfriends, and friends, but it just doesn't seem to work for me.

Did you ever think about having your own art gallery? If your a people person and love art you may be a natural.

No i never didi but i dont think many people would like what i draw beacause most of the time its not my own work its characters from a show or something. When i do draw my own work though i usually throw it away because i never thought it would be anythhing special, if you want ill draw something later and post it on here as my avatar sometime.

ive always used to draw designes for like shirts and stuff but i never really told people about it. maybe i could do that or something idk.

See that's thinking outside the box but finishing high school is still going to have to be a prerequisite. That's just the way society works anymore.Don't worry about copying shit and drawing characters from TV or whatever that's the way we learn the craft. As you grow older you become more capable of putting yourself and your own experiences into your work. So that kind of work is just a function of living and age.When I said have your own gallery I meant you could show and sell other peoples are work.

oh i thought you meant my own work, and i guess i could do that.

If your good enough don't hesitate to try.

i don't think I'm that great.

Why? The world is enough of a critic. Do what you love in the confiedence that it's what you love.
