“I used to listen to 'Perfect Day' by Hoku every single day in high school! 'On this perfect day, nothin' standin' in my way... Don't you try to rain on my perfect day.' It pumped me up when I was feeling down or defeated, whether it was from the cool kids making me feel left out or feeling overwhelmed with homework and mean teachers.” WayFeelsTryingMeanFeelingsKidsSchoolUsedLeftPerfectTeacherHigh SchoolRainMy WayDefeatedOverwhelmedHomeworkLeft OutPerfect DaysFeeling DownCool KidFeeling Overwhelmed Author:Kara Lindsay
“I didn't make any kind of grades in high school. My mother was a single mom, putting my three sisters through college, and I was such a bad student that I knew I had no right to take her money. But I loved being in classes and learning. I took in a huge amount of what I learned, but I had a feeling of always being behind and being in trouble.” KindFeelingsSchoolMotherThreeBehindsClassTroubleStudentsCollegeHugeMomAmountHigh SchoolGradesSingle MomThree Sisters Author:Louis C.

“The world is colors and motion, feelings and thoughts and what does math have to do with it? Not much, if 'math' means being bored in high school, but in truth mathematics is the one universal science. Mathematics is the study of pure pattern and everything in the cosmos is a kind of pattern.” IfsWorldKindMeanDoeFeelingsSchoolStudyColorPureHigh SchoolUniversalMathematicsPatternsMathBoredCosmosBeing Bored Book:Mind Tools: The Five Levels of Mathematical Reality Source: Mind Tools: The Five Levels of Mathematical Reality
“The one thing I would like to get across about my whole feeling regarding high school is how I was when I was fifteen. Gawky. Always a hem hanging down, or strap loose, or a pimple on my chin. I never knew what to do with my hair. I was a mess. And I still carry that fifteen-year-old girl around now. A piece of me still believes I'm the girl nobody dances with.” YearsBelieveStillsWholeFeelingsSchoolGirlPiecesOne ThingHairHigh SchoolMessFifteenAdolescenceChinsFifteen YearsHemPimplesFifteen Years Old Author:Nora Ephron
