One day I want to study Astro-Physics. Where can I find interesting stuff they don't teach at school?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I don’t know in which class you read in. But astrophysics is not that easy. You need to under many other concepts and theories before you can understand. But if you really feel that you are ready to start reading astrophysics you may start reading the following books:
1. http://www.free-ebook-download.net/science-book/4602-invitation-astrophysics.html
2. An Introduction to Cosmic Rays and Gamma-Ray Bursts by A. De Rujula, http://www.e-booksdirectory.com/details.php?ebook=4524
3. Elements of Astrophysics by Nick Kaiser, http://www.e-booksdirectory.com/details.php?ebook=2399
4. Magnetic Fields, Strings and Cosmology by Massimo Giovannini, http://www.e-booksdirectory.com/details.php?ebook=5432
There are many e-books that can be downloaded from this site. If you want to get some presentations here are they:
1. http://solar.nro.nao.ac.jp/meeting/nbym06-1/Nakariakov_20060316.ppt
2. http://search.vadlo.com/b/q?rel=2&keys=Astronomy+Astrophysics+PPT
3. http://www.physics.uci.edu/~observat/FOCUS_Astro1.ppt
4. http://star.pst.qub.ac.uk/~sjs/teaching/stellarevol/L12.ppt
5. http://surya.as.utexas.edu/lecture-01-2.ppt
One thing I would like to suggest. Do not make up your mind that you will be astrophysicist in future. Take interest in other branches of physics too. Astrophysics is not a good option for career. Opportunities are limited. Research funding is going down.
