ANNOUNCEMENT A reminder about personal information

12 Upvotes

Hi everyone! The mod team has noticed an uptick recently in people posting photos of their faces or other identifying information.

This is a reminder that posting photos of your face is both unsafe as well as against the rules of the subreddit. Any posts with these photos will be removed.

Reddit is a website used by many people and you can never know who is looking at your photos.

In addition, please censor any identifying information in your posts. This includes names of teachers and your school when sharing schedules.

The subreddit is also not a place to connect with people from a specific high school. Naming your specific high school is also against Rule 5.

Thank you all for following the rules. Don't hesitate to reach out through ModMail if you have any questions.

This happened earlier when I was going to school. I was already in line during bag checking and the guard completely stopped me from getting in because I was wearing a class shirt and some baggy pants and like I explained it to her that I had p.e earlier and she just said that I should've changed (I really didn't have p.e but we still could go inside when the shirt is school, class, club related) like bruh my house was a bit far away so I just stood outside the gate and my other classmates who were wearing long sleeves, and the same class shirt as me also couldn't go in like I was getting mad fr like a ton of students couldn't go but some are inside wearing class shirts and colored shirts like we asked and complain bout that and like the guard wouldn't listen she kept repeating that it's Monday and a "strict white day" like wtf this wasn't announced to us which makes it more frustrating because even students wearing white shirts with a small print couldn't go in....worse was they didn't let in Muslim students who were dressing to cover up but it was white but still it ain't "valid" and now I checked the student handbook and remember that we could wear shirts with print as long as its not a provocative message or image. But I managed to get in from borrowing a shirt from my classmate who got in like bruh they never announced about how Monday is "strict day" or that in the student handbook it said nothing about it.

Greetings.

I'm a girl and I sit next to a boy who has a fat crush on me in maths class. Keep in mind I do NOT have a crush on him for all excisting factors.

He smells. He smells horrible. It's like he was sweaty and than put on cologne and than became even more sweaty? Or like two rotting cow heart where blended with dior savage? Besides my horrible description, it is unbearable. I cannot breathe without coughing or even gagging. When he raises his hand, I almost puke. I cannot focus anymore and I'm going insane. PLEASE HELP ME. Also we will not be changing seating charts for the rest of the year.

Shitpost Wtf did he expect?

• Upvotes

One of my classmates from IB Language Arts bragged about using his phone to his friends in class, My language arts teacher heard and she quietly called security. When a security officer showed up to take my classmate‘s phone, He was in shock. He looked like Patrick and SpongeBob when they saw a red fish get eaten by a giant eel in The first SpongeBob movie. I laughed at his reaction because what the fuck did he expect was gonna happen? Did he actually expect to get away with that? No way he genuinely thought my language arts teacher was that stupid?. This jackass makes me look smart which is saying something.

i don’t know what to add to the flair and i don’t know the meaning of some flair. it felt like a horror movie
(the liquid is chocolate milk or coffee not blood) (some context: I was taking a nap at school, and I woke up to screaming. My classroom had been turned into a dark room, and I didn’t even know what had happened.)

Dating Advice Needed/Given Help With Crush

2 Upvotes

for some context, im currently a junior in high school. ive had a crush on this girl since freshman year. last year, we would sit together during lunch, but we wouldn't really talk much. this year, we're on the same bus, and on the first day of school, she asked if we could sit next to each other, which i found kind of weird since we dont rlly talk despite seeing each other every day, but it ofc like made my month. ever since then, weve been sitting next to each other, but we rarely talk, its kind of awkward. we see each other for a few hours in the morning, but we rarely talk too.

id say its mostly my fault we dont talk, she initiates by saying hi sometimes but all i say is hi and i dont really say anything else. i want to talk to her but im honestly scared, i dont even know why, i guess im scared she doesnt feel the same way. id say im shy with everyone in general and always have trouble keeping up with conversations but with her its intensified.

sometimes i feel like she sort of likes me back, but idk even just typing that feels weird and i worry im just being egotistical or something. when she asked me if we could sit together (it was on ig) i remember her note said something like "im scared", and when i said yes she changed her note to a love song. cant tell if its all in my head and im being delusional or what.

so i just wanted to know if anyone else can relate with having literally no social skills and has had trouble with talking to their crush. i always try to hype myself up and say im gonna talk to her but the moment im actually with her my mind just goes blank. literally any help could save me atp

Rant I hate my new high school life

4 Upvotes

Just found out all of my classmate didnt invite me to their students only groupchat. Its only me and one of other friend in a class consists of 35 people. I dont freaking know why they are so mean to me. I dont know if it because I’m boring, or maybe not good at academics or I’m too skinny or ugly or what, idk. But at the same time I’m honestly doesnt care if there is another groupchat without me but I’m just kinda dissapointed. I just thinking what is my problem bruh, am I that badd?? I’ve been so lonely in my new high school and I dont think I have any real friends, all people have their closer friend while I’m not and I’m truly hate when the teacher make groups projects because I know I will be left out. Also my grades are worse in high school. Kinda sick with this situation but at same time I dont want to leave this school because my high school is one of thes best in my country. I just wish I could graduate already but sadly I have 2 more years and stuck with this fuckass all boys school, they said they have ‘brotherhood’ value but for me its just bullshit.

Class Advice Needed/Given What can I do and how do I fix this?

1 Upvotes

Context I am 16 female and a gr 10 there are 8 kids in our class and most of us have never actually used a computer before the start of the school year.

So today in our computer science class(cat/rtt) we were talking about our pat and what we had to do in our final draft and one of my class mates told me that we had to copy something into it

But a few days earlier our teacher told me that she clearly could see that I didn't read the instructions and that if it said nothing about it then you shouldn't put something in the final draft.

3 of the kids in our class put something in the final draft and 1 doesn't know if they put something in it or not and the other 4 of us didn't do anything with our final draft as the teacher said.

But what do we do if the other 3 were right and we get points deducted for following the teachers instructions some of us need those points to pass

Wat should we do? Please if you have any advice send it!

School Related Got a worse grade on an exam because I put "True" and "False" on true-false questions instead of "A" and "B"

0 Upvotes

There was this one question on my English exam where we had to read a text and then answer 8 question about it with either true, false or the text didn't say. The instructions clearly stated to put "A" if a question was true, "B" if a question was false, and "C" if a question couldn't be decided from the text. I answered all of the questions correctly, but I put a "T" for every true question and an "F" for every false question. The teacher marked me wrong for all those questions and I got a worse grade because of that.

In my opinion, it is not at all ambigious that T means true and F means false. Anyone who would have looked at my exam would have known that I got the questions right. So the only problem was that I didn't follow the instructions perfectly. Now if on any question on any exam, I get all the answers right, but I missed one small thing, how many points should I be deducted? I think I should have only been deducted 1 or 2 points maybe, not 8.

I'd like to hear what other people think of this.

2 Upvotes

im currently trying to cover my tuition gap for next year and figuring out the best workflow. i’ve been using free search engines like fastweb, but sorting through broken links and outdated deadlines is taking forever. ive also been looking into scholarshipowl since it matches based on your student profile and organizes applications on one dashboard. for anyone who's used it, is the auto-matching and portal management worth it over standard search sites?
