Even though I've only been here for a few days, I do wish you luck with your schoolwork and hope that things work out fine in the end. School can be frustrating, and when I was in school, I hated it. And my grades stunk, so perhaps I'm not the best of examples. :P But, you can turn them around, if you put your mind to it. Is it the dull repetition of essentially having to do the same work year in and year out, or are you having difficulties in other areas? If it's the former, I can sympathize&mdash;one of the reasons my grades stunk; I simply was tired of doing the same thing over and over and craved a challenge. But, eventually, you'll get that challenge. Over the summer break, read up on the subjects that you had trouble with. Approach them from new angles, and perhaps that will help lessen the dullness of it. Find new ways to do projects. Look at the subject from a fresh perspective, something the teacher would never think to look at it as. Teachers like it when their students surprise them, even with obscure bits of trivia knowledge. Good luck to you.
