    Can't do my homework, finding it way to boring and pointless

    You could write about the life you can have with no school qualifications and how exciting that would be.

    You just might be missing the point...
    Doing your homework may be boring but it's far from pointless. You'll find class tests and future exams much easier if you listen in class and complete all your homework - making heavy weather of it doesn't help.

    You just have to adopt the nike motto "just do it"

    In life there will be plenty of things you don't want to do but you just have to put the head down , shoulder to the wheel and get on with it.
    Do the most unpleasant things first to get them out of the way as you might run out of steam later.

    It will stand to you in later life.
    If something has to be done - just do it, get it over with. That's life. We are all doing unpleasant and boring things occassionally

    The way I see it, we're extremely lucky to live in Ireland with access to free education. We're lucky to have access to education at all!

    Think about all those people in other countries who are dying to learn and fill their brains with information. But they can't. They don't have the opportunities we do. Some people have nothing. Some people have to live in a war zone. Some people don't know when the next time they'll see food is.

    I think that we shouldn't look at school as a chore, but as an amazing opportunity. With an education, we can make a difference and do something great with our lives. Since we're so much higher up in the ranks, it's easy to forget about the poor people at the bottom with nothing. We should appreciate the great things we have and make the most of them. :-)
