Something in school you hated doing and it felt like everyone else loved?

Probably getting up in front of everybody. Everyone seems ok with doing a presentation, but I for some reason hate it.

Presentations are terrifying at first for most people, but like a lot of things public speaking gets better with practice. I am actually doing pretty well after having done a few important presentations in college now.
 
Presentations are something that I don't like either, but as Shining Raikou mentioned, the more practice that you have with presenting, then the more ready you will be when presenting. You just have to build confidence in yourself. When I have multiple presentations in a day, I usually feel confident after I present my first one.
 
I got better with presentations myself after getting over my extreme shyness, but I still have one fatal flaw: losing my train of thought mid-sentence. I will just blank for at least 10 seconds while I try to remember what I was doing.
 
I go to a high school that intertwines with a college which allows grades 10-12 along with the normal college students and I'd say I hate the high school classes. This was my first semester there as I am in 10th grade, but everyone else really likes them it seems.I'm taking mostly college class next semester so I don't have to deal with that. But I still have something called gathering which is a school-wide assembly in which we talk about Farmers and GMOs, at least I get to hang out with Vulpix Yolk and Elk-Dimension during it.
 
Gym Class. Everybody loves/loved it but since I rebelled against something the Gym Teacher said in 5th grade, I failed Gym that year. >:I

Oh and its pointless in general.
 
I hate it when teachers make us do homework/practice in class. I prefer for the teachers to teach us for the full extent of the period, rather than skimp up on teaching and give us free time.

I hate stuttering in middle of a sentence. So they then.. uh-uh-uh... t-t-t-t-t-they did this and t-t-t-t-that. There's a teacher at school that in a hour presentation say 'uh' 300 times. Really
 
Right now it's the people. They drive me up the wall. I tend to be the smartest kid in my classes and so they ask me for help a lot, which is bearable, but they are:
-Loud
-Constantly talking about social lives (e.g. ____ broke up with ____)
-Troublemakers (one was expelled for bringing pot to school and another was suspended for attempting to strangle another kid)
-Slackers
-Jerks in general
This is about 65% of the student population in the eighth grade of my school.
 
I hate people too. Recently one girl beat up another girl because she didn't believe she was from Alaska. And another girl jumped into a pond while running away from the cops for some reason that I don't know yet, but will find out eventually. People are also getting arrested for pot and other drugs daily. This is all in 10th grade.
 
I hated homework. My feeling is if you do well enough on the tests, it shouldn't matter if you do homework or not.
 
I used to feel the same way about homework. Now I feel similar, but not the same.

I don't think not doing HW should negatively impact your grade, but now I like doing HW because Im actually studying what I am interested in.

Oh god smokers annoy the crap out of me. When I go outside it's like I can't breath.

Back when I was in a public school, I never did my homework. I always thought it was a waste of time.

Yet I still got an A in every single class. That's because classwork/Tests took up most of the grades, and I'd always get 100% scores and above. I'd also take every extra credit opportunity possible.

I heard about one kid in my school a few years back in 7th grade who had Marijuana pancakes or something. Yeah I cannot stand a good deal of people my age.

people bring pot to school and try to strangle each other in 8th grade? What is this world coming to?

Sounds like the world is exactly the same as before. Unless you go to school at a small private school, you're likely to get stuff like this. Even in private schools too.
