Highschool.

[Kildor]

So, it has been three weeks since I first started my journey into highschool. I guess, it has been great, and a bit bad.
Every now and then, some guys will make fun of me, take ugly perfectly-timed pictures of me, and show it to the whole classroom.

Putting that aside, it has been great. Met new friends, the teachers are great. Subjects seem easy enough.
I met alot of new great friends, but only some from the boys. (I'm not really close with the rough and rowdy types)
I actually made more friends from the girls in my class, but I don't know why. I mostly hang around with some of them
Because they find me cute, funny, or interesting. Sometimes some of the boys ask me to introduce them to a girl, because they are too
Shy. Heh, I introduce alot of them.


So, our topic for today is about ....

Your good/bad experiences in your Highschool life.

Also, I apologise for not being online very often anymore because I have been busy. I promise to check in every now and then.

Good to hear you have been acclimating to the high school scene. Sometimes people have a hard time adjusting, because let's face it, it can be a battle zone there, lol.

I've always been a bit ambivalent about high school. You're given just a taste of freedom, but after 3 years, you just start wanting complete independence. I also found some great friends, but at the same time, I found the worst people I feel I'll ever meet. So all in all, high school is an experience. I graduated last year, so I'm off to college in August!

I'm glad your experience so far has been good for the most part.

I had a really difficult time adjusting going in my freshman year. It was easily the worst year of my life. I had some stuff going on with my family around the time school started and because of it, I just wasn't myself going in. I didn't feel like trying to meet new people and I decided to stop talking to the friends I already had because I was done putting up with their negativity and the way they treated me. It's all good now though. My sophomore year wasn't amazing but it was definitely a lot better. Now I'm getting ready to start my junior year in a new school and I'm excited for the chance to start over.

That's great! Thanks for sharing a bit of advice

Yeah, I know that feel. Even though it has been three weeks, I still am having a hard time adjusting.
I just do not feel like I belong sometimes, even though I am studying in my home country. Its because I studied in Singapore for 6 years, and I seem to like it better there and I really miss my friends.

I am slowly adjusting, so I'll try to be friends with a lot of my classmates ( even though that may not be possible)
Hopefully you'll have more fun in your new school

AHahahahahaHa.

High School.

I was an un-medicated anxious mess. My greatest achievement, and my favorite thing, was being involved in Drama Club and snagging some of the good parts for myself.

Other than that, I hated it, my teachers were useless, I got lackluster grades, and now I'm in college and nobody gaf. Once you get out of that small world crap, it's so much better. Well, it is for me, anyway. I wanted to freaking die in high school. Like, for real. Every day is the same, nobody enjoyed what I did, and now all my old high school friends are popping out babies and being useless. So, there's that, too.

My high school years were so-so. I feel like anyone who tells you "these are the best years of your life" is probably misleading you. I definitely have retained a lot of awesome memories, as well as an awesome circle of friends and a teacher that has really inspired me throughout my post-high school life. For whatever reason, in the first three years of my high school experience I caught A LOT of flack. I was called some really ****ty names for literally no reason. I was basically relatively similar to the way I am now (really into film, and music, and had long hair). I guess since I wasn't your typical redneck type I didn't quite fit in. However, my senior year everyone just thought I was the coolest guy in school? It definitely made me turn into an ******* though because I definitely didn't have time for that sort of flip flop behavior. Either way, I definitely enjoyed the two or three ladyfriends I had near the end of high school. I don't know!

It sounds like you're doing well so far so just keep at it and if people pick on you any, don't let it rattle you because in the end it's really no big deal and if you go off to college, you'll only see those people when you come home for the weekend and stop by your local wal mart ;')

Ahaha thanks for the advice Mama :') My Old folks told me that highschool will be the "best years of my life" I just hope they are right, because I still am unsure about it heheh.
Stay cool, man. B)

I've gained nothing from high school except anxiety and stress. Nearly half of the teachers are lazy slobs, so I end up teaching myself the entire course after school. I don't play sports because I have too much school work to do. I don't leave my house after school because I have too much school work to do. I don't go out with friends on weekends because I have too much school work to do. I don't go on vacation during the summer because I have too much school work to do.

Maybe I put this on myself when I took five AP classes and two college-entry classes, but I still don't like any of the teachers or any of the students (except about 5).

If you're expecting to be friends with a lot of people in your grade, just keep an eye with who you tell things to. You can get screwed over in a blink of an eye if you say one thing to the wrong person.

high school was and is a forgettable part of my life. i was hardly there, i graduated super early, and i've lost touch with all the people i knew in school.

i wasn't bullied or the center of any social drama, i just skipped a lot and skated by. i took advantage of teachers who knew my potential by literally never doing any work then waiting till last week of the semester when most teachers would offer a grace period to turn in unfinished assignments with little to no penalty. the main group of AP/honors students at my school were in the same classes/schools from elementary-hs so i must've had some special treatment. i never made less than a B but i did skip so much my sophomore year that i couldn't even miss class to go to my grandfather's funeral

sometimes i wonder what my life would've been like if i'd stuck around a little longer/taken advantage of all the college credits i could've earned but i don't regret what i did at allll

I can't begin to describe my position in high school. I'm in the gifted program, head of our Smash community, 4.0 GPA, yada yada yada this and that and everything's wonderful and I'm all successful and stuff. I've got a hold of some recruiters at Nintendo of America, and I'm oh-so-successful. It's a lot of hard work to be who I am, but I'm proud of it.

Heading into my senior year and high school is great. Physics is pretty tough. I enjoy sciences though a lot. Taking Computer Science 110 and 120 next year both.

 

[Lady Timpani]

I start my senior year next month, and I'm glad. Classes are for the most part fun and interesting, but there's way too much drama for my taste.

 

[vriska]

A lot happens. Yup that pretty much summarizes it. It's a turbulent time of emotions, and you get to make friends and enemies and find out more about yourself. Personally I liked high school for the most part, although I do admit that it took until Junior year for me to come out of my shell. So, in short, there's plenty of time to open up and explore your options, especially if you're only 3 weeks into high school

I'm glad to hear that high school seems to be getting off to a good (or at least decent) start, and I hope it just gets better.

Throughout high school I didn't have really any friends and if I did I was kind of the one they called last if nobody else was available to hang out. I was sick and in pain all the time so I was just kind of shy and quiet and just trying to hold myself together and I got bullied and stalked so I can't exactly tell you anything...particularly GOOD about my high school life. I'm entering my third year of college now and it makes me so happy that I survived high school and lived long enough to see parts of my life actually start to improve, giving truth to people telling you it gets better.

Heading into my senior year this August.
High school has been great. I hated sophomore year though. It was beyond horrible. Freshman and junior years were the best for me. It has been a lot of fun and I wouldn't change a thing about the past few years. I love it. And I'm ready for this final year.

 

[Cazqui]

I gained nothing from high school but learning about two-facedness, frenemies, ******* friends, learning what I wanted to be. They aren't the best years of your life, well they could be if you're just that sad of a person, to be gullible enough to believe that. I graduated in late May or Early June, can't and don't care enough to even try to remember. This may sound pessimistic, but you'll find some portion of this to be true within the next 3-4 years of your life. I can give you some advice though, after you graduate take a year or two off to figure out what you really wanna do, or relax before you decide to end up in debt for the rest of your life working a job you hate.

I'm going into my senior year as well, in September. I've gotten all of my required Math credits, so I am not going to be taking Math this year. I only have three required classes, that's English, History, and Government. The other electives I'll be taking are Spanish 3, Advanced Chemistry, Physics, World War II Seminar, and multiple computer classes, which I'm excited for.

 

[Kirito]

Highschool as a Freshman sucks.

Tip: Take as many advanced classes as you can (Pre-AP, AP, and IB). There are no idiots/bullies in those classes and you should be able to find more like-minded people.

 

[unravel]

Senior year

-Happy that my friends and in my section
