Does anyone else feel like every year of school was a letdown? I graduated in 2021, and I’ve been hearing about all the fun activities little kids are getting to do that my older relatives experienced, but I missed out on all of it. My 4th-grade class didn’t get to take the trip to Sacramento, while other schools went. In fact, we never got to do anything exciting, like dissecting owl pellets, frogs, or pigs. Our outdoor education camp was just three days because our school lacked funds. To top it off, I switched schools yet again, and as soon as I left, they could afford to take the 8th graders to Six Flags. It just feels like I was dealt a bad hand with all these missed opportunities!
Is it just me or did every year of school suck
I totally get where you’re coming from! It sounds like you really missed out on some fun experiences that are often part of the school journey. It’s frustrating to hear about your peers enjoying those opportunities while you didn’t get the same chance. Sometimes, things just don’t line up the way we hope, whether it’s school funds, opportunities, or even bad luck with timing. It’s okay to feel that way! Your experiences were still valid, even if they didn’t include those memorable trips or activities. Have you thought about organizing some fun activities or experiences now that you’ve graduated? It could be a great way to create your own memories!
