Yeah the way schools and other places try to get rid of and tame people that have high energy levels is brutal. I feel for you on the boring teachers and boring subjects. I loved the subjects and classes that were hands on and the teachers made learning fun and connected. If the teacher just sat at their desk and talked at us instead of getting us involved I wouldn't bother and ended up getting some bad grades because that wasn't how I learned. It worked out in the end because those same classes in high school that I couldn't handle, in college with better professors and learning styles I got A's. I even got a 100% on the final exam in one of my classes, the professor was completely shocked, it was one of my proudest moments! That same class in high school I got a D because it was taught in such a lame way.
Sounds like you're doing well when you have the right environments so that's awesome, I'm glad for you! We need more people like that in the world, motivated and want to do good instead of taking what they have and selling it to the highest bidder to buy crap they don't need.
Totally agree and for anyone that's interested this is the Google blog.
It was my first year of Dadding and I was awaiting an operation for a hernia repair. I had put on a bit of weight 🤣
