I really do hear ya. School sucks. No one understands you. Everyone is out to get you, and there is no way out.

But really, what is the big picture? School is just a couple years of your life and it can and will get you far if you let it. And as was mentioned before, what is talent? Is it being able to spit out facts on a Scantron sheet? Is it being able to work with your hands and fix mechanical things? Maybe it's just simply being a good support mechanism for others. And teachers aren't all your enemy. The one teacher who lived in infamy for all my middle school years is the one who asked something real of me and everyone else. And what's more: I LEARNED SOMETHING FROM HER!

For as frustrating and seemingly endless as it looks, you are making progress and that is what matters in the end. Keep your nose to the grindstone and you'll be out in no time.
