mind is a terrible thing to waste
School is a place where you learn. Probably of you think yea we know that why are you stating that. The reason I would say something like that is because some do not know that school is a place you learn. People amaze me because when they go to school all they do is fool around, not pay attention in class and not do any work, and when grades come around they are surprised with the grade they received. For some one to get a good grade you need to listen to the teacher, you need to do your work, you need to homework, and you need to read. It is scary the number of people who do know how to read. If you can not read then why are you in school? The way I think about it is that if you do not want to go to school then you should tell your parents that, and they should not pay money for you to sleep in class and fool around because really you could do that for free.
Many people do not know how much you need school. I knew this kid since he was a baby he was like a little brother to me, and now I see him and he is a high school drop out and he just hangs out in the street corner, and smokes, and what I hear about other he does drugs. So when I think about his future I see him either a homeless man on the streets, a drug dealer, or died. That is very hard to say but with what he is doing now is the choices he makes for his future. Teenagers do not know that value of school, and to be honest I did not but know I know that with out school you can go nowhere with your life, and that is the harsh reality. No company will take you just with a high school diploma, because in these century what a high school diploma used to be is a college degree, the reason being because everyone is going for their master and there is a huge competition, and if you just got a high school diploma you are going to have trouble in life. So be smart if your parents are paying for your school why not just do the work, you are just sitting in that class anyway, do not led you mind go to waste.
