Based on your fora posts, I would suggest your strategy is not working as well as you believe it is.
i got the marks and i enjoy school so it works just fine
"Getting the marks" is one of the least important aspects of high school.

Put a thick elastic on your wrist and when you fall asleep, get your friend to stretch it back and snap your wrist with it.

No..."getting good marks" and "learning" do not necessarily go hand-in-hand. In fact, sometimes they have nothing at all to do with one another. I'm not saying they don't go together in your case, because I can't know that...but that you believe there is "nothing else to school" leads me to believe that you're not, in fact, actually learning.

"Giving yourself options for the future" I'll agree to, simply because the educational system is basically set up in that manner.

physical as in i get bloody noses for no reasons and they last for 45 minutes.
Does standing up cause them? Because I don't really see how that's relevant.

You don't think it's a distraction for them to bother to notice? Unless you're loudly hitting your head on your desk, in which case I would hope that would wake yourself up, they must at least spend a portion of their attention on your sleep-check.
and if you have a bloody nose standing up is a terrible idea. so yeah it sourda does mess me up.
How is it you manage to play basketball without standing up? Your inconsistencies are overwhelming. Just man up and say you don't give a crap about the class and would rather sleep...at least you'd be honest in your ignorance.
i mean when I have a bloody nose. and have you ever heard of a bench warmer? i mean im not one but when i have a bloody nose which is to much. i cant stand up. i also do care about the class mainly be because it is going to bite me in the ass someday if i don't. now science i do hate that class and care less about it.

Then I'm out of ideas, since Hot-Chicks are usually the best. Maybe you could try to get on Jeopardy some day and use the knowledge you learned in school?

Even right now there is a monetary constraint for dating for me personally. The people I asked said no in high school, and then I was too busy during the school year to do any all the way through senior year and basically gave up. I just don't care enough right now to ask anyone and there aren't many women where I am anyway.

You see I told my friends I was going to ask out the person I liked. It was taking me awhile to do it so my friend thought it was a good idea to do it for me. She said no. So I'm wondering if she is thinking if it is a joke or not. I hopeing she thinks it is.

dude your in grade 7 your WAY to young to be dating

and for the joke part...if you normally joke around then she most likely does think it is but if you are always serious then she would not think it is a joke....also could depend on how intelligent she is

I've already covered that in this thread. So with that in mind, perhaps something you should be working on in school is your ability to follow a discussion. That might be useful to your future. Perhaps working on your reading comprehension skills, based on your posts in this thread...that could be useful. From what I've seen of your spelling here, perhaps you could work on that...that's certainly a skill that could be useful to your future. And finally, how about you just learn how to learn most effectively - an invaluable skill that will affect everything you do in life and one which you clearly have not mastered in any way.

She probably thinks that only a pansy-ass has his friends ask a girl out for him...and it's almost a certainty that she believes that is what happened, even though it wasn't.
