What I think needs to change. (Some Harsh Words)

For god's sake where do I start. I guess I could start with looking at our class and comparing it to the Spinx class. They have a blog a goal and it means something to all of them. Our class is still "shy" about things, nobody seems too interested accept die hard people like Caitlin and Maddi, or Morgan, and sometimes myself. I don't mean to be too hypocritical, as I tend to blow off the class often as well as many others in the class. I'm not the type of person who could lead the class, but I'd like to because it doesn't seem like there are many that want the job. The class isn't hard, in fact it's bullshit work that I blow off often because I don't see why I should try when the most of the class doesn't. I think the class needs to contribute to something we all can be a part of, and for those who don't want to then you can be thrown out for all I care. I'm not mad, in fact I'm one of those people in the class. But as Dr. Preston always says were going to look back on these days and think " OH! that's what he meant". I find it disrespectful what we as a class do to Dr. Preston, he gives us opportunities I know nobody can give us, and we shut him down? Who the hell are we to do that? He's one of the few teachers out there that still give a crap, and most students would agree with that. But as far as my idea for the class I have no idea where to start. But I think it needs to start with a conversation on things we could do as a class, the work we get from Preston is far too independent for the majority of the class, so if we need to all monitor each other like children then we must. But seriously people, this is your life right in front of your eyes, the actions you make now effect your future extensively, and I feel like most of you don't realize that. Like I told my friend Gage the other night, we can't just keep waiting for the day for something to happen, because that day may never come, but if you are constantly working towards that goal, that thing you want to happen in your life, the quicker its going to happen, and the quicker you can get new goals and prosper as a person. As far as I'm concerned if your coming to class everyday with the intent of blowing the work off and screwing around, every single day, than in my eyes you either need to clean up your act or be prepared to fail the rest of your life.
