What Made Me Rebel

It all started because my family was going to Jack’s basketball game for the day, and my parents let me miss school. Missing school always was nice because I could have a day off, but I hated making up the work. It was always hard for me to understand the material without someone explaining it to me. My parents made me get my work the day

Looking back, I was lucky to have the teachers I had. Most of them would try to help me, but didn’t know how to. There was something about the way the school was designed that it just didn’t work for me. The summer after my 8th-grade year was when I realized I needed to try a different form of education.

Rebel Without A Cause’ and ‘Raw’ effectively elucidates the profound struggle of adolescent transition into adulthood. ‘RWC’ follows the story of protagonist Jim stark, an emotionally distraught, morally perplexed individual. Projected throughout the film are Jim’s struggles to adapt to the experiences of the broader world because of his confusion on what it means to be a man. Resulting in a constant quest for a stable role model to guide him to a virtuous and honourable way of life. ‘Raw’ pursues the story of Brett Dalton, an adolescent delinquent determined to dismiss any form of life-enhancing assistance from anybody. The narrative follows the evolution of Brett’s personal values in conflict with the broader world, and furthermore his transition

Throughout my time at Chelan High School, I faced many challenges when it came to my homework and it took me nearly my whole high school career to realize how to fix it. The problem was how unmotivated and lazy I was when it came to have to complete my homework. Looking back at it now it seems that the solution was so simple, and it is frustrating that it took me so long to be able to self-motivate myself. It turns out that this responsibility was a habit of mind. This habit of mine helped me very effectively and completely changed how I went about doing all my school work and studying.

I declare my independence from homework. A thing that brings me much grievance. It violates my rights. And my life would become exponentially better without it.

I remember when it was time to go from being a 12 year old 6th grader, to a 12 year old middle schooler with a lot more responsibilities than I was used to having. I had to make sure all my homework was done on time (It took me awhile to get the idea of no late homework hammered into my head), asked for help when I needed it the teacher wasn’t going to help as much as the elementary teachers would do unless I asked, with asking for help was a lot harder than I thought it would be everyone was confused too, after awhile the teacher finally got tired of running around the room jumping from student to student, marched up to the front of the class and wrote on the board of how to do a certain assignment.

I'll do it later, and who cares it's not like i need this to pass? Were excuses I continually told myself. I recollect the time when I thought school was something oppressing, monotonous, tedious, and just unnecessary.

No one wants homework over the summer. I see summer as a time to forget about school, and just have fun. I think most people feel the same, but despite how most people feel some of my teacher assigned homework over the summer. As you could image, I was highly upset about this. I was even thinking about not doing my assignment, but I knew that I didn’t want to start the year off failing. Little did I know that by the end of the summer my life would be changed, and I would be a new person. All thanks to Sandra Cisneros.

Growing up, both of my parents were always working, that left me at home without adult supervision. It was great doing whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted, which was mostly hanging out and playing with my friends. School was always an after thought and when it was time for me to turn in assignments or take a test I performed miserably, but I was quick in coming up with excuses. Worst part was that I believed them. This trend followed me through high school and into college. My excuses finally caught up with me when I got dismissed from Long Beach City College for having poor grades.

I detested school. Then again, I also detested being a child. I think I must’ve had a very high level of self-awareness at a young age, and I certainly didn’t appreciate being bossed around by a

As a student at USC, one can assume that I’ve always taken schoolwork seriously and may even infer that I partake a considerable degree of enjoyment from it, which is by all means an accurate assumption. However, in my early childhood I was often characterized as unruly, uncooperative and impulsive in nature. At that age I had been more interested in social endeavors more so than anything relating to studying or doing schoolwork. It was always a negative issue when I brought it up in a conversation, and that assumption was reinforced through subsequent agreement amongst my peers. Coupled with negative criticism from my teachers of the purported “attitude” I had in

This is my first year at Bonnabel high school, I came from Chateau Estates Elementary School, I attended there in from my 5th grade to my 8th grade. I met Keion at chateau, when i was in 5th grade Keion was in 4th, Thats why when i came here and found out that keion was in my grade (9th grade) I was surpriced. Most of my 7th grade and all my 8th grade i never did homework, thats why i dont trip to do it. I definitely don't do my homework. I rather do all my work at school because I know, I wont do it as homework.

I was sitting in my Algebra 1 class waiting for my teacher to dismiss us. Apparently, my classmates didn’t get the memo since the second the bell rang, everyone dashed towards the door, while I remained seated and casually raised my hand to remind my teacher about passing out the homework. Hearing groans from every corner of the room, I remained sitting, secretly grinning. I only did such act because having no homework in math disturbed the balance and structure of not only the class, but the education system. To many of my peers, homework is treated as a burden, but me, I look on the other side of the coin

Throughout middle and high school, I was never one to enjoy the academic side of school. School takes up a lot of time in your life. As children you are forced to attend school; all states passed laws stating that children must attend until a certain age. I agree that children should have to receive an education, but because of how school is conducted, children are forced to become little adults. They are intimidated into

After the ball started rolling with middle school I had homework in almost every class nightly; little did I know that it did not even come close to
