Can't wait for it.

[Jagster]

I'm seriously gonna go stir crazy. I have a thing for going back to school. I strongly dislike summer. Why? It's cause I have nothing to do. What exactly should I do to make time go quicker? I seriously want to let people know about my sexuality. No matter how much it affects me. I'm planning on telling all my fellow 8th graders. Just don't know how. Please someone tell me how to pass the time so I don't have to go crazy waiting.

That is weird. I have the same feeling. To me, it seems as if school is vacation.

hmmm... i love school but i love my vacations too. at school i have many friends i cant wait to see but then during vacations i have friends that only come around then. (tonyboy <3) and i would like my vacation to last longer or equally as school so i can see my friends here and at school.

It's just crazy how I never have anything good to do during summer.

I definitely used to feel the same way, hence why as soon as it became possible, all of my summers became occupied with work and summer school. This is my first summer in many years where I dedicated myself to relaxing at home - at this point, VT is what occupies the vast majority of my time. Aside from that, I try to read a little, and have a few video games to play every once in a while.

Is there an issue or activity you are interested in, perhaps, that you wouldn't mind learning more about on your own? Learning doesn't have to end outside of school, in fact, it should expand. Don't sit there idly waiting, put yourself out there and actively seek opportunities for enrichment. :)

I am wanting to take a babysitting class so I can earn some pocket money... I also want to learn Graphic Arts.

[Jess]

I can't wait for school either. I hate summer.

[Slayer]

... I also want to learn Graphic Arts.

Just look up some tutorials on it. That could take up a bit of time learning it.

Do something you've never done before. Take up a new hobby. The possibilities are endless!

By the way, becoming a baby sitting course is really helpful. I've gotten numerous jobs just by saying "I took the Red Cross Babysitting course, I learned a lot of great stuff, and I'm CPR certified." Not only do parents like to see that, it means your responsible, but I learned a lot of helpful stuff from the classes.

Just call up your friends and see what they are up to, ask them if they want to do something. Plan something completely crazy. Even if the plans fall through, you can still hang out.

I'm happy kicking a ball about on the beach and swimming in the sea. No school till 15 Sept suits me fine

[Jagster]

Kinda hard to do Kyle. I'm not aware if anyone in my neighborhood is my age. and I don't want to seem like a creep by going door to door to find a friend. :/

[ShatteredWings]

No i mean go wheverver people seem to hang out and start talking to someone.
