High School=hell

[CashforStash]

My first year of High School is pretty good so far :)

[Bunker]

Wait until you're a junior and have all the pressure of getting into a good college, then you can complain about high school. :up:

[CashforStash]

Well I swear, in my school theres only 3 black people...i'm not even kidding.

99.9 percent of my High School is Portugeese.

[Rando]

we have no other races in our school but caucasian. kind of sad actually.

[Bunker]

We have like 4 black kids, about 10 Mexicans, and then about 980 white kids.

[AndThePickles]

Well, It's been over a month since I posted in this thread and I promised to bump it. Anyway, all I have to say is this year is much worse than last year.

Did you take anyone's advice in this thread?

[CashforStash]

I'm half spain spanish, 1/4 irish and 1/4 British so yeah, i'm the only non black or non black porkchop at our school...I feel...lonely.

[TheGeoff]

I think history has taught us the best way to deal with High school is to pair up with a friend. buy a couple of guns and shoot every ****er you can see.

:hehe:

[YoungE808]

^ sorry for that.

My year is going good aside from the whole...doing work that requires me walking from one room to a completely new room to do something that takes 40 min....yea there's a class like that it's called PHOTOGRAPHY.

[MattBearPig]

Well, It's been over a month since I posted in this thread and I promised to bump it. Anyway, all I have to say is this year is much worse than last year.

Are they molesting you?:huh:

[Sam Fisher]

Ha ha, if you're complianing about high school now, wait till you go to college.

[DeGenerate10]

I always find this thread title odd to me. I loved high school. I hated school up until high school really. I didn't really become popular until the 8th grade (last year of middle school). Every day since school has started I've wished that I could go back to high school. I'd love to re-live every second of it.

[DeGenerate10]

Double post :(

[Spidey-Bat]

I miss being able to get good grades without doing anything. And having the teachers give you all the material. I hate having to buy books and printing out worksheets on my own.

[amazingfantasy15]

Well, It's been over a month since I posted in this thread and I promised to bump it. Anyway, all I have to say is this year is much worse than last year.

What kind of problems are you having? What are you doing to change things from this year to last year?

[Spider-ManHero12]

Did you take anyone's advice in this thread? Tbh, I talk to a few kids, but for some reason, it's not working too well.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Are they molesting you?:huh: Lol, thankfully not.

[Avenger20]

Not going to lie, high school's hell. I lived through it and thank god I'm out. I had little to no friends in high school. The only friends I did have I made before high school. Never had a girl friend in high school either. I was really shy. I was a loner and to make it worse I was shoved around and beaten down. Felt like I would never fit in anywhere and that my life would be limited to staying home a lot and going out only from time to time...

But, here's the good news. That's high school. Once you get out of there, everything will change. I can guarantee it, just need to be open and ready for it. Read through this thread and you kinda remind me of when I was going through the same experiences. College has been a lot better and I mean exponentially better. I've made friends, I'm somewhat involved and hell dude I even got invited to a HOUSE PARTY.

What I'm trying to say is, yeah high school's tough. But, you make it though I can guarantee you that things will get leagues better. Keep swinging spidey, the radioactive spider bites once you graduate.

What an odd first post.

[Spider-ManHero12]

This years almost over. All I can say is it's almost my worst school year ever.

[Hobgoblin]

Personally, I think HS got better as it went along. Hopefully it will be the same for you. IMO, it helps to keep a low profile. An air of boredom helps, too.

[DarkReflections]

What an odd first post.

:lmao:

[Crazy Flakes]

I actually think middle school was worse than high school just because I went to private school, and when you're an awkward and unathletic scholarship nerd surrounded by a bunch of rich little blondes and jocks, it's hell. But in high school I learned to come out of my shell, embrace my geekiness, stop gossiping (which was easy because I have so many people in my school that I hardly know anyone), and ignore the stupid people, and I was so much happier! I know it's way easier said than done, but you'll be so much better off if you learn not to care what those immature idiots (AKA 90% of high school students) think of you. And if that doesn't work, just focus on your school work rather than your social life because even though it seems to be lasting forever right now, it'll be over before you know it. The only thing that really gets me about high school now is having to wake up at 5:30 every morning and working my butt off because I'm an overachiever and do a bunch of clubs and APs and such. Oh, and gym class. Ugh.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Personally, I think HS got better as it went along. Hopefully it will be the same for you. IMO, it helps to keep a low profile. An air of boredom helps, too. Indeed, and a little under 2 months now until it's over.

[Hobgoblin]

I would just be nice to people but dont go out of your way to be nice. If they ask you for help with something, help them. Then forget it ever happened. If someone gives you trouble, have a sarcastic comeback ready. Be Spidey as he faces a P.O.ed bad guy. (Yes, I just said that.)

Example: When I was a freshmen in the stone age, a guy said to me "Nice glasses. You're a full fledged ******." I looked at him and said "Yeah? That ear ring makes you look real manly, too." Or just curse em out. That works too.

As my psychologist always said "If someone sticks their finger in your face, bite it off."

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ WOw!

[Bunker]

Junior year makes you realize how much easier your first two years were.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ interesting. Hopefully, that year is better for me.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Well, honestly, that's what should happen, lol.

[DarkReflections]

^^were you just saying that to me dude? lol

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Yep.

[Zephyr Alexian]

Indeed, and a little under 2 months now until it's over.

It helps to remember that every other person in your school, age group, etc...is facing the same exact type of growing pains that you are. You may feel like an island, but you're not alone. Every kid in hs is dealing with something; chances are, it's more complex that it really should be due to the contemporary nature of American society. Compound that with a school environment that's full of irony in many ways and it's not easy. My advice to you would be to relax try to stay positive about your daily situations. Concerning your high school days, above all, get used to the idea of them. Realize that they're not forever, you've completed almost half of them, and your general outlook will determine whether your disposition towards hs improves; not the actual circumstance.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ True.

[SheldonLevene]

Spider I think you were the op so just a word of advice. Take high school easy, once you get to college you will realize how easy you had it. This is probably also true after college. Once you're out in the world it gets harder. So have fun.

[DarkReflections]

Spider-manhero12 after reading all this advice, which i think is very good advice, i want you to ask yourself one thing. WWBCD. :cwink::up:

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Oh, I will. :up:

[Doctor Jones]

What does WWBCD mean?

Is it an name of a secret code for an operation?

But high school for me is pretty sweet.

Freshman year was my worst and my most stressful. I lost ****ing fifteen pounds because of it. Now it's my sophmore year and it's great. Not alot of work and it's pretty easygoing. I actually have study halls now.

[Doctor Jones]

Does it mean What Would Black Cats Do?

[Doctor Jones]

SMH12 what problems are you having this year or last year. I'm too lazy too look back and I swear I'm about to watch WOK again.

[Drakon]

What would Bruce Campbell do?

[Lunar_Wolf]

What would Bruce Campbell do?

He was a pretty bad ass shrink. :word:

[Doctor Jones]

What would Bruce Campbell do?

Oh. That would be awesome. He would ****ing take out his boomstick. :woot:

[Prison Mike]

I already forgot what high school was like. it feels like it's been ages but really, it's only been 5 years now.

[Sarge 2.0]

My junior and senior years of high school ****ing rocked. :up:

You just have to loosen up, make friends, and have fun.

[Dark Victory]

To be honest, I'm loving High School. I had a great time playing Football and Wrestling and loving Volleyball right now. I've also made a lot of friends since the beginning of the school year. Sure there are a few kids who are......eh, but so far I think High School is great.

[The Original Bamfer]

High school was loads of fun. Jr. High, however, was a load of ****. :down

So true it hurts.

And I'm starting high school in just a couple of months. :up:

[Sawyer]

High school wasnt that bad...

[Bunker]

Junior High was the ****.

7th grade was the best year of school I've ever had.

[Mr. Todd]

Speak for yourself, at least with 7th grade. :o Ok, 8th grade isn't that bad, but I really hope it gets better. And, again, 7th grade was just pure, concentrated hell, period. :down

Though I did learn and change a lot in 7th grade, not just in the textbooks, I mean, so I wouldn't screw up socially again. Ever.

[Timstuff]

Last year was my freshmen year in High school, now, in 29 days, I go back to to school. Yes, I know 29 days is a good amount of days left, but I get bad anxiety about things like that. So anyway, last year, my life was hell in high school. I'm so nervous about going back and especially being a sophmore now. Anynbody have any suggestions on how to make me not nervous and keep my mind off of it for the next month? :csad::csad::csad:

Just take comfort in that it's not as bad as college. If you think that it's bad having to go to class with douchebags, living with them is even worse. :o

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

I used to get made fun of a lot. Once I started beating peoples a$$es it stopped. Sometimes you just have to come out of your shell. Don't try to be something you aren't, just be comfortable with who you are.

This really is the best possible advice there is. You really have to say **** everyone else. Love who you are and be comfortable being yourself. Don't do anyone else, just do you.

Do the things you like and enjoy, hang out with the people you are friends with and don't be afraid of putting yourself out there. Kill them with kindness. And if they are jerks, which plenty of them are. **** them, they are douches and will grow up with time and learn they were jerks or they will be douches for the rest of their lives.

High school really should be some fun years. I played sports, got laid, had a job, got a car, hung out with friends on the weekends, went to the beach, parties, did stupid stuff that was dumb at the time but I didn't realize it and now I can look back and laugh at it.

Enjoy your life and live it to the fullest. Don't waste your time with what other people think. The only thing that matters is your opinion of yourself and it should be a very high one.

Couldn't put it better myself. If you just say "**** what everyone else thinks" it's so much easier. Plus the people who are mean to you are usually the ones who are failing all of their classes and don't have the intelligence to carry out an actual conversation, so they just talk about other people. Think of where they'll be in ten years and you'll feel better. :cwink:

[Blackman]

You should care what people think. But make sure its the right ppl. Ppl who think there better than you for petty reason, f*** em. But make sure you keep a good social life with ppl who share similar interest and is cool. And make sure you get a girlfriend or boyfriend (whatever your preference)

[Prison Mike]

I enjoyed 7th and 8th grade. I didn't like 6th grade so much though. High school wasn't that bad either, but I hated 6th grade.

[Doctor Jones]

8th grade was my best year in Jr. High. For some reason they call it middle school now?

[Doctor Jones]

How are the guys who wrestle in your school?

I swear to God, the guys here seem to have gay thoughts or something. They do some seriously creepy ass **** to me and other guys.

What can I say? I hated college with a passion. If I hadnt wanted that diploma so very, very badly, I would have left and never looked back.

[Timstuff]

Two of my three room mates are immature douchebags. In high school the only "room mates" I had to worry about were my brothers, but even when we had problems with each other we were always cool at the end of the day. Sometimes I wonder if most college students really do have the maturity level of a six year old except with much filthier minds, or if I merely drew the short straw when I got sorted for room mates.

It's a crapshoot.

[Prison Mike]

I can understand freshman roomates being complete douchebags. college freshmen are no better than high school seniors in terms of douche baggery. it gets better when you're older though. I can see a vast improvement between college seniors and high school seniors...

[Timstuff]

Unfortunately, the two room mates and the neighbor I have problems with are all Juniors, as am I. The one room mate who I do NOT have problems with, I'm pretty sure is a sophomore.

juniors? that sucks. maybe those guys, alone, are just douche bags. In my experience, I've found that juniors and seniors are generally better than the freshmen and sophomores. but that's just me.

I miss college every single day. God it was so awesome.
Course, I loved High school as well. So I guess its all about how you live life.

[Alexia Dark]

Thank (insert deity here) for the G.E.D. program. I never have to deal with the **** public education system again.

[Hobgoblin]

Its not that I loved high school, I just hated college. Sure, I liked seeing hot girls walk around in short pants even when it was freezing. I liked the air of subversion in the student body. Its sure as heck better than the "business as usual, dont rock the boat" attitude of my home town. But I didnt like the constant immaturity, the rampant hedonism, the fact that I had to be social when that was the last thing I cared about. I wanted the diploma and nothing else and so many other people kept saying "D's get degrees."

It felt like a prison sentence. :csad:

Well I would have to say that is more of your issue that it is something wrong with College. Not that College is something great that you should strive for or need or have to do just because society says so. But you said it yourself, you didn't want to be social.

College is pretty much the wrong place for a person like you then. It is what you make of it.

I didnt mean to say that there is something wrong with college. College was very much right for me, as I've never wanted to be anything other than a white collar worker. My sanity really depended on getting my degree, I just felt like college was an example of "trial by fire" for me. I guess for me, "college" means school, studying, learning, bettering myself. For many other people, it means beer, drugs, sex and immaturity.We just had totally different reasons for being there and had nothing in common.

I didnt enjoy it, but I'm glad I did it.

Well that makes a little more sense. I just think everyone can have a good experience at college. But that doesn't mean they will sadly.

[Timstuff]

When I was commuting to community college back home, I was doing fine and was in the honor society. However, as soon as I moved into a college dorm for the 4 year school, I got my first D. This semester, I actually failed a class, and it's looking like I might fail a second as well if I don't work my ass off this week. All I really care about now is learning how to use the software I need to get a job, and if I can't get my degree by next spring I'm actually considering exploring the job market without a degree. I'm an animation student anyway, and it's not like people care if you've got a degree when your job is making cartoons.

[AndThePickles]

I wish I could re-do high school. I hated it and was around a lot of horrible people, many of them racist. If I could re-do it, I'd try not to let others affect me so much and just be me. At any rate, high school contains mainly bad memories.

College, on the other hand, was amazing. I miss it constantly. I worked my booty off AND stayed very social.

That sucks. This semester I've been struggling in my theology class. I did bad on the midterm and have been studying. My prof is such an ass; he tells us a ton of material we need to review and our tests are only 2-3 questions which pertain to less than half of what we reviewed.

[Doctor Jones]

I did horrible on my Living midterm. Goddamn. That class sucks ass anyway. It's easy. Just take notes and hand everything in and I have a pretty good grade.

[Doctor Jones]

I always had this feeling I would be stuck with a ****** roommate.

[DorneyDave]

High school for me was pretty awesome...college has been cool to. I'm lucky though...had a great bunch of friends in high school and we've all stuck together throughout every year in college now as well. I think that's pretty rare, so I feel incredibly fortunate to have been around a group of people who I enjoy for the past 8 years. However I'm ready to be done with my college years. (graduate next month) I made a wrong decision with my major and it was too late, for financial reasons, to switch now. So this past year I've kinda just been "meh" with moving towards my degree. That's just me, and I have been having fun in college don't get me wrong. Lately though I've just been realizing that I'm over the "college" atmosphere. I'm ready to move on and sort of settle back down in my life. Find a job, settle into myself as a person more.

Still going to visit the town a lot though for football and weekend parties. I can get my dose without overdoing it now at least.

I think college is a good place for both the studying and learning and beer and partying. I think both are important aspects of the learning in school and looking back on it, I learned much more outside the classroom than inside. You learn the theory of what you'll be doing at a job in college, not the actual practice of it. I went into a job that had little to do with my major in college and still picked it up quickly.

[BlackLantern]

hated HS, I survived, graduated and went into the service....my life started when I LEFT high school....I run into random people who remember me, I don't care, pretend I don't know them and continue on with my day

[Kane52630]

High School was really fun for me, mostly becuase i didnt do real school work, just played around for 4 years and still graduated

I've heard people say that learning about people is a valuable thing that comes from parties but I still cant bring myself to do it. I prefer peace and quiet to being in a crowded room full of noisy people. It puts my nerves on end.

Amen to that.

Right. And college would have been so much better for me if people would go party outside of the dorms and let the rest of us have our quiet. Instead, its party everywhere, all the time. I used to laugh that college needed a "Party Section" and "Non Party Section."

[Spider-ManHero12]

Well, I've been out of school for about a week now. Passed most exams, and in September, I'm moving onto my Junior year.

I don't mind going to small parties. Big parties are way too obnoxious and get out of hand far too easily.

[enterthemadness]

High School is always hell. Only good for me was really P.E. and P.E. II overall. And weights.

Hell, a lot of people don't know this, but 9th-11th I did so bad in school cause my mind was on girls 24/7. I only went to school to check out girls in class. Kid you not. Now my senior year, at the time I wanted to be a screenwriter and I got my hormones in order. Didn't miss a day (11th grade missed over 20+ days) and got a C average overall. Better than my D-/D average first three years. Graduated bottom 10 in class with a 1.6 though.

[darkseid26]

Well, I've been out of school for about a week now. Passed most exams, and in September, I'm moving onto my Junior year.

same here, but i got out of school earlier at the end of May.

had to goto summer school thou. :o

How many times do you have to take P.E. up there? We had to take it once, with the option of taking it again.

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ You mean Gym? You have to take it all quarters except one. I have Health one quarter.

[Drakon]

For high school for me, it was mandatory two years [9 and 10], with other gym related electives [weight training and such].

[enterthemadness]

^^ You mean Gym? You have to take it all quarters except one. I have Health one quarter.

Health? Ah...I think we did that...in PE and maybe PE II. Like after 3 or 6 weeks...spend 1-3 weeks outside in a trailer that was for the P.E. Health classes. There was like 1-3 teachers for P.E. Don't know about...I know we had...two...I dunno.

For me, it was gym every other day for all four years. It was also the easiest class to cut, which I took advantage of this last year.

And I graduated yesterday, so thank god for that (even though I 93.4% loved high school).

[The Squirrel]

I didn't have to take Gym, Math or Science my senior year. It was a good year.

[Doctor Jones]

Didn't have to take gym??!!

It's a requirment for me to graduate. It's a waste of time. I already took health last year which was awesome. My teacher was cool and it was one of the easiest classes I ever took if not the easiest.

Sophomore year was really cool for me. Not as stressed as my freshman year and I did very well on all my finals and regents as far as I know. Report cards come soon.

Hope next year is cooler. And hope to God I can go to prom.

I only had to take 3 semesters of gym.

[Sarge 2.0]

This thread title still cracks me up.

High school problems are gravely serious, and will totally matter for the rest of your life. :o

[Star]

Well, thinking back to my high school experience and the experiences of some of my friends, sometimes things in high school can go beyond just being 'high school' problems. Not for everyone, but sometimes I'd say people have experiences that might effect their outlook on people later on.

I only had to take one but I took 4

[ARROGANCE]

High School was awesome for me. I was in the soccer and baseball teams. I had a lot of great friends, some I still hang out with. The girls were awesome. I did a lot of crazy and stupid stuff. Yep I had a great time. College is awesome as well so far.

[Colossal Spoons]

I took weightlifting for my senior year gym class :D

[enterthemadness]

I took weightlifting for my senior year gym class :D

I did too!

I got 180 on Squats and like 150 on Bench. If I ate more back then and ate afterwards, I would have done better. Hell I got 160 on bench weeks ago at the rec.

[Hobgoblin]

As far as I can remember, I took gym every day, every year.

[Star]

Gym was optional after Grade 10 in my school

[DeGenerate10]

I took weightlifting for my senior year gym class :D

I tried to get that class my senior year but it was full. I was pissed.

[darkseid26]

i only needed 3 semesters of gym

[Doctor Jones]

Jeez what did you people do in the mean time without gym? Study hall?

This one kid in my school cleaned (don't even know if I'm using thee word right) 360 pounds and won some state championship.

[SsM]

Cleaned what?

[amazingfantasy15]

I didn't technically have to take gym after my Sophmore year. After Freshman year, if you were on a sports team, you had gym as the last class of the day (I joined both my sports teams Sophmore year though) and it was just practice. You got a grade and all, but it was a joke, since you're coach is obviously going to give you an A as long as you show up to practice.

[CelticPredator]

His you know what....

[Colossal Spoons]

Cleaned what?

Ha, you're adorable.

[CelticPredator]

Who poos in school? I ****ing dont. Ew.

[Bnightwing]

For us you gotta take one year of Gym ,but now they brought back the rule that you can be in sports or marching band for one year.

Man I remember this thread from like last year :hehe:

[Bnightwing]

Who poos in school? I ****ing dont. Ew.

Dosen't bother me but my friend did put open ranch packets under the toilet seat.

[DeGenerate10]

Who poos in school? I ****ing dont. Ew.

I always went in the locker room bathrooms where no one was around. But I'd cover the seats with toliet paper just to be safe.

[Bnightwing]

Our locker room stalls had no doors.

[DeGenerate10]

Our locker room stalls had no doors.

It was the opposite for us

[CelticPredator]

That would be awkward as hell....


"Hey joey, whats up!"

"Nuthin...i'm poopin".

"Oh....well...uh".

[Doctor Jones]

How the hell does that work?

"Damn I gotta take a giant, -- HOLY **** YOU'RE PANTS ARE DOWN!!"

[Kane52630]

i remember once where i stuck my middle finger on the overhead screen and froze it, i was about to unfreeze it but the bell rang and we all sat in your desks and wait until our teacher came back from monitoring the hallways. once he came back he saw it and was so pissed. he called the assistant principal and was also pissed, he told everyone to write down who did it. i was so fn scared btw lol, i found out latter that no one saw me doing that. ahhh i was relieved

[Alex The Great]

Well, I think I had a good year this year, and now i'm chilling in portugal :woot:

[AxlsAppetite]

Well who the hell takes a dump in a public restroom:huh: That's sick.

I've only layed a brick in school once and that was in 3rd grade.

If someone caught you emptying your bowels in High School, they'd probably do some eff'ed up stuff to you. Like wet the toilet paper or something. A t least in my school, but there is a restroom in one hall that for some reason no one ever goes in. I think it's haunted.

[spideyboy_1111]

It was the opposite for us

! your doors had no stalls? !!!! :wow:

[DeGenerate10]

! your doors had no stalls? !!!! :wow:

Well we had 3 sets of bathrooms. The old wing, the new wing, and then the locker room. The old wing didn't have any doors on the stalls. But the new wing is where kids went to smoke and do other tomfoolery. So really if you needed to take a dump the only real choice was the locker room stalls. Not many people came up with that though.

[amazingfantasy15]

I only took a dump once during high school. In freshman year after gym, gym was pretty early in the day and I knew I'd never make it through the day without taking a dump. So after gym went in the stalls. Someone saw my feet under the door and everyone made a big deal, like they'd never knew people had to $#!t before that time or I was beating off in there.

[Dark Victory]

Next week I go back to school for Football.:csad:

[Booznian]

I am going to be a senior in the fall, and I just wanted to say that high school is only hell, if you make it hell. Everyone gets picked on Spider-ManHero12. You just have to deal with it, and try and become more social. I got picked on my Freshman year, and it sucked at times. You really just need to stand up for yourself, and make as many friends as possible. I remember throughout Junior High I didn't have many friends. I hated junior high because of bullies, etc. But as 8th grade came rolling around I made many friends. Finally towards the end of Freshman year people really started to know me and I haven't had a problem since. I have never done sports in school, or joined any clubs, but I still had a blast. High school is going to be fun, if YOU make it fun.

You say that people make fun of you because of your nerdiness? Try not to act as nerdy. I'm not asking you to re-form, but try and blend in with everyone else. If you're comfortable with being yourself but risked getting picked on, that's your own fault to be honest. :facepalm That's really my only advice. Try and be as social as possible. If someone makes fun of you, just laugh it off. Don't let them get to you, and make it seem like you have a DGAF attitude. (Don't give a ****). Just have fun. I hope you get more lucky during your junior year.

[Hobgoblin]

Our locker room stalls had no doors.

My dorm bathrooms were like that.

[Doctor Jones]

Never taken a dump in a school restroom. That's sick. God knows what happens in there.

Sometime bomb threats were written on them. Like one last year reading on the stall, "I dropped a bomb in the toilet."

I would call it misinterpretation.

And they smoke or do weed or whatever.

[Bnightwing]

Some kid at our school was smokin pot and when a student asked my 1st period teacher if they could use the bathroom she said no ,because of what happened the previous day. I honestly see why would you do that? You have like a 85% chance of getting caught ,and on top of that how are you ever gonna look like your arleast paying attention,

[DeGenerate10]

I remember one time my friend was taking a crap and I took a caution cone and threw it over the stall at him. I've never heard the F-bomb dropped so many times in a period of 15 seconds

[Drakon]

[Doctor Jones]

In my gym locker room there was a stall but no door on it. Weird. Sometimes we found some weird **** in there. No pun intended. Sometimes sick bastards find it funny to piss all over the floor.

A few months ago someone found a piece of **** in a bag in the ice box in the locker toom.

[The Dude]

High School wasn't to bad with the exception of copious amounts angst and drama. Now grade school, that was hell because little kids=jerks.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Our locker room stalls had no doors. That must be terrible. Though, it doesn't really matter to me because i don't take s**** n school, lol. Still though, that's pretty bad.

[Spider-ManHero12]

Jeez what did you people do in the mean time without gym? Study hall?

This one kid in my school cleaned (don't even know if I'm using thee word right) 360 pounds and won some state championship. That reminds me, there's some jock in my school who got his face on some magazine or in a newspaper or something, so he became full of himself and started standing on tables during lunch time. I once saw him holding a teacher. Freakin stupid.

I HATE it when I see s*** and pee mixed in. on the 10 (going on 11) years I've been in school, I've never taken a cap in school except for 2 times. Once in 3rd grade, and once in 8th (I whent in the clean teachers bathroom. It was all fancy and clean).

[SpideyRacoon44]

I'm gonna be a Freshmen in the fall. Hopefully it doesn't suck that bad.

[DeGenerate10]

It won't suck if you don't let it suck. Just have fun and enjoy it because before you know it. I'ts over.

[Spider-ManHero12]

I'm gonna be a Freshmen in the fall. Hopefully it doesn't suck that bad. Well, all I can say is good luck. I'm going into my Junior year and I hate high school, but that's just me. I mean, you get to carry your back packs around, you have more responsibility over yourself, etc.

[AxlsAppetite]

They don't let us carry backpacks around, we have to carry our books in our hands. But I haven't used a backpack since the 4th grade, so I don't really care.

[amazingfantasy15]

Some schools don't let you carry backpacks anymore? I always used my backpack in jr. high and high school, tried carrying my books every once in a while, but found it a pain in the ass to keep going back to my locker.

High School is Hell, its filled with countless ********. Once you guys get to college you will realize what a joke High School Really is.

Well it's a public school so I'm guessing they think someone'll bring a gun to school or something.

Sounds like someone wasn't too popular in high school.

[Doctor Jones]

They lets us carry around backpacks as we barely ge tto go at our lockers. We only get five minutes of passing time and our classes are all over the school.

But some of us don't wear backpacks. I wear those sport sack things. Works pretty well actually.

[AxlsAppetite]

I hate those things with a passion, don't know why.

[spideyboy_1111]

i remember when i was in highschool it was considered "gay" to carry messenger bags... now in college thats what one sees the most... lol. god i hated living in a farmland district

[amazingfantasy15]

I could see that in high school, I remember going on a trip with some cousins and one had a messenger bag and his girlfriend kept jokingly calling it his manpurse.

[Spidey-Bat]

My middle school didn't allow backpacks. I hated it. One year I had to go to my locker between classes that were far and I was usually 1 or 2 mins late and my teacher would give me **** about it.

[spideyboy_1111]

I could see that in high school, I remember going on a trip with some cousins and one had a messenger bag and his girlfriend kept jokingly calling it his manpurse.

our era probably... but I think there widely used now... it'd be interesting to see if there used often in highschools now.

[Doctor Jones]

Eh, carrier bags in my school all the weird kids use them. And they are very weird. I like the sporting sacks the best. Not bulky, can carry what you actually need in them and carry a folder or binder. It works.

There is one kid in my school swear to God, is scrawny as hell and carries ALL of his papers and folders in his arms. It's literally a mountain of stuff he carries.

[Drakon]

To this day, I still use a backpack. I'm like a fat, white, hairy, one-legged Dora the Explorer.

[TLATOANI]

i am out of college and i am sad because it was really fun

a lot of parties and that kind of stuff

my friends and i used to go to the clubs en bola ( all together) and have a great time

the high school was also great

i miss both :(

today is my graduation party of the college :D

[Doctor Jones]

Congrats dude. Damn, that's still a long way off for me.

[DarkReflections]

[CelticPredator]

Because it was funny. :hehe:

Man, let me tell you something. I came from an inner city high school, where pretty much anyone in my group was messed with, if not by the students, then by the faculty [we kinda stood out]. We were taught half-assed by a lot of teachers and to this day I'm paying for it. But if I could go back and do it all over again, well, you can bet your Will Smith inspired new name that I'd be a freshman again faster than Paris Hilton puts out. You think it's really bad now, and it's not. You think things are so different, but it isn't. You're going to find that when you get out of school, you're going to miss some of the same things you hate right now.

Well thats good for you but all seriousness i will not miss high school. I went to 3 different high schools in the last 3 years. This upcoming year will be my first back to back school year in my high school career.

By the way reason i switched was cause of tuititon problems and also another was because the second school i went too was terrible. But anyways i'm not gonnam iss nothing. Nothing to miss. School became boring and lame. All i care for now is the education. Nothing esle. Will not miss high school.

[Kane52630]

trust me after leaving HS you'll miss it

[DeGenerate10]

I graduated in June. Didn't really like high school, wouldn't say I hated it but I didn't care for it, though I can totally see myself missing it soon.

[Eklypze]

I shoulda graduated in 02. I was to hardcore though I was allready in an alternative school and I got kicked outta it cuz I went to school robotripping my balls off everyday for like 3 months straight and had a drug-induced psychotic episode thought I had powers and was like the second coming and all types of crazy ****. And of course considering I was psychotic at the time I was letting everyone in on the secrets to life and what happens after you die and lots of other things lmao. Got my GED though and everyone know that stands for Good Enough Diploma

The ****? What happened to you? Let me guess you dated the weird emo chicks?

[Ace of Knaves]

High School was brilliant.

My parents always used to say "You'll miss your school days when you get older." I used to say "No chance".

You know what? They were right! :D

[Drakon]

The ****? What happened to you? Let me guess you dated the weird emo chicks?

We didn't have emo in high school. We had goth, which is the same in a lot of ways, but usually instead of crying, they'll try to curbstomp you. Often they'd fail.

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea emo wasn't about when I was at school. It was grungers or goths.

[CELTICPRED]

Academically speeking, high school had the easiest school work out of all the different grade levels.

The only thing I regret about high school is how much I didn't say about/to other people, far too many things left unsaid, positive or negative.

Never got picked on in high school or anything too severe, just extremely disliked the negative atmosphere of the place, the bit*hing teachers, the budget cuts, the students who were always crying "poor me, and school sucks".

[Drakon]

Yeah, I had a crush on a girl that, looking back, probably really wanted to know me better, but our social groups never really meshed, so we didn't interact much. She was the cheerleader, and I was, well, me.

[Ace of Knaves]

You should of got in there geezer!

[Drakon]

There were a few times we interacted, but truth be told, I was nervous as hell. One time, I'll never forget it. It was cold out, so the cheerleaders were doing their practice upstairs, where we wrestlers usually had our practice. We were doing our whistle drills [coach blows the whistle X times, and we do X activity, Y for Y and so on], and we ended up finishing off with pull-ups. The girls finished their practice, and they wanted to do some too. She ended up coming to me asking me to help her with them. My arms were already sore as hell thanks to just doing 40 pull ups, and combined 150 pushups, but you can bet your black-clad ass that I made sure to hold her waist tight as she was doing her pull ups.

[Ace of Knaves]

Haha nice one! So you did wrestling at high school?

[Drakon]

Yeah, I sucked, but I did it. I went between 125-145 depending on if I wore my leg when I weighed in, though I'd go as far down as 119.

[Immortalfire]

For me, the greatest day of High School was the last day. Because it was finally over.

[Spider-ManHero12]

In my experience it's the people who always got picked on that hated high school part of my reasoning. :up:

What is this American History X? When did you people go to high school anyways? 90s? 80s?

[Fresh Prince]

Half of mine.

[Drakon]

What is this American History X? When did you people go to high school anyways? 90s? 80s?

He said "I should have graduated in 2002."

And yeah, people curbstomp. It's not always as graphic as the one on AHX.

Wha? Ace is back? ****ing finally.

When you're probanned for a month, you're gone for a month.

[SpideyInATree]

Well, all I can say is good luck. I'm going into my Junior year and I hate high school, but that's just me. I mean, you get to carry your back packs around, you have more responsibility over yourself, etc.

Like Drakon...I was in an inner city school and a public school system. I got completely ripped off on my education. Everyone gets picked on in high school. It doesn't matter who you are...that is life. Life craps on you every chance it gets. High school is training to what you will have to expect in real life. Because those people picking on you and giving you crap? Guess what...they are going to grow up and have to work...just like you...and when you go to work you will be around the same jerk offs except you will be getting paid.

So if you are not going to stand up for yourself now or just let peoples crap roll off your back, well, life is going to be rough.

Just shrug your shoulders and pay no attention to people who give you crap. Because nine times out of ten the people who give you crap in school are 1000 times more insecure about themselves and fearful inside than you are...they just take their insecurities out on others because that's all that their parents taught them to do.

Just focus on your school work and getting into a good college and a good education. That way you can get a good job and follow your dreams...and once you are out of high school...guess what? It does get better. It gets a lot better. But remember...high school is a glimpse into how people will act around you in real life. Look around you and remember...most of these people who pick on you and give you crap will probably have very miserable lives.

Good luck.

[CelticPredator]

Y'know...I cant really feel bad for people who get picked on by everyone. Why? Well, theres a reason why.

If you're small, acne ridden, talk like a chipmonk with a broken nose, and are super shy....stop. Stop being like that.

See, I'm not a popular fella....but not unpopular. Only one dude picked on me, and everyone hates him anyway. But I got the **** over it, and moved on. My problems are dealing with fitting in, but I AM working on it. I'm trying to revamp my personality. It wont make me different from myself, but make myself more interesting.

I'm very shy, with anxity problems....but y'know what? I have two choices. Be all quiet, in the back, or just let myself be free. Dont worry about what people will think. Just be "cool".

If your getting picked on....find out why...and change it. And i'm speaking to all the picked on kids. Not just one.

Yeah still two wrongs do not make a right and i did stand up for myself. Kid was talking trash so i punched him in the face. Did not get suspended cause it was only one week left of school lol. But afterwards well i feel a little happy.

I miss the relatively care-free days of high school. Wait til you get a job and a family and bills and real life grabs you firmly by the nads. And you still get to deal with all the idiots you did in high school. Except now you don't get the summers off.

Fun stuff.

[Canadian Rider]

Be yourself.

People play games and pretend to be people they are not to be popular or get something from you. They might look happy on the outside but inside they are damaged goods.

I have found that the people who accept you, acne and all, are the people you can count on. The ones who pretend to be nice and all, usually have an ulterior motive or play games.

Don't worry about what others think about you. Find happiness with yourself, accept yourself and you will be more confident and happy. Then you will find people will like you and respect you for who you really are.

Haha. Yeah, but I don't want to scare some of these kids to death! One step at a time! :woot:

I wish Chris Cornell was my bff in high school.

So, if people don't like you, be someone else.

And all this time, I was led to believe that was bad. YOU LIED TO ME, "ABC VERY SPECIAL AFTERNOON SPECIALS!!"

Ugh....no. I ment change yourself. If you're really shy, and weasly, change it up. You can still be YOU...but not the same you.

You have to find yourself. And if being who you are aint workin for ya, change it.

Doesnt mean you have to be someone else. It makes sense to me though.

Yes...this is what I was saying.

But you have to find a good personality that works with everyone. So for example, if you act like a huge crazy nerd, and rant about movies all the time....tone it down.

Indeed. Once you get into the real world of work where you have a jerk for a boss and issues with Bills, neighbours, family, whackjobs on the internet ... Like cuts the nads off and puts them through the grinder ...

Summers off, lots of vacation, minimal effort and money to spend however you want? Yeah. High School is easy street.

Partially true. Find a few friends or an outlet for your movie schtick but broaden your horizons. As you get older you will realize that comics, movies and things like that aren't the only things out there ...

Plus chicks like a guy with a wider conversation ability ... and the experiences that come with doing different things with your time.

Be yourself, but the self that can be friends with more than one group of people.

[CELTICPRED]

To be quite honest I just wish I would have been more of an a-hole.

The troubles of having a somber demeanor.

[Suirou]

Freshman year~ Just basically the same, except there's older students around
Sophomore year was my awkward phase, that was the year I broke out of my shell and made tons of new friends so I was overwhelmed. From only 12 friends to 50+ friends.
Junior Year was just pure hell: tests, drama, and even more homework.
Senior Year was my favorite, the easy year of my entire high school life.

My advice to you: Just be who you really are, join some clubs with the same interests as yours, and always hang out with at least one or two friend(s) because people tends to bully on solo targets (only if they look weird or just has a quality that attracts bullies).

[The Original Bamfer]

I loved high school. I think I peaked then. I doubt I'll ever be that awesome again. At my ten-year reunion, I'm sure I won't be saying anything but, "Yeah, well... I was the Homecoming King. Remember that? Yeah." :csad:

[Fresh Prince]

Me too, he couldve broken my rusty cage AND introduced me to Spoon Man.

Spoon Man wtf?!

[Canadian Rider]

Life gets better the older I get. More things to be thankful for and more experiences to look back on and enjoy.

You never appreciate what you have while you have it ... then you are moving onto something else challenging and difficult. That is what life and aging is all about. :ghost:

[Drakon]

Spoon Man wtf?!

All his friends are brown and red.

[SsM]

Spoon Man wtf?!


Yeah, after we all meet up, we would have a hunger strike and then say hello to heaven through the black hole sun.

[Dark Victory]

So far high school has been great. Played freshman football and varsity volleyball, met lots of cool people and made high honor roll both semesters. Supposedly, sophomore year is a lot easier so I'm not too worried at all.

It sure as hell is. Freshman year was my worst year in school. So damn stressful I lost 15 pounds. I've managed to gain it back from correcting my eating habits and working out and to just plain growing.

But Sophomore year was easy as hell. I didn't get alot of homework and didn't have to study every night like I did in freshman year. And actually having study halls helped because I got none in freshman year. If you take a foreign language you have a Regents (it's a big state exam in NY state) and the regents exams are easy as hell. And don't get too worked up about finals. Teachers make it out to be the apocolypse, but keep your cool and study hard and you should do fine. I was worried about my living and spanish exams, and they were easy. Best final exam grades I got were this year.

And now that you're in the top three last years, you do a feel alot more independent and free. It's a cool feeling. Plus, hot older high school chicks.

[Swordmaster]

Freshman year was terrible. I'm bad at Math on a good day, so of course I have a terrible teacher. Only reason I passed was because I always did homework and participated. And my English teacher gave us a crapload of work. Granted, it was an honors class, but still.

Sophomore year was when things started improving, and by senior year I enjoyed the hell out of myself (once SAT's were done, at any rate). It's about who you surround yourself with, and how you apply yourself.

[Ace of Knaves]

To be honest I barely turned up to school in my last year. I was bunking all the time :D Either smoking weed or shagging. I ended up getting expelled in January.

But luckily, the school let me come back and do my GCSEs. Amazingly I got pretty decent grades. Got a few Bs and the rest Cs. It was funny showing all the teachers that I wasn't a dunce like they all thought.

[CelticPredator]

Did you smoke weed WHILST shagging?

[Ace of Knaves]

:hehe: Na don't think so. I can't remember!

[CELTICPRED]

Ahhh the potheads. Another thing I do not miss about school.

Walking from class to class behind a gaggle of stinky axe ridden potheads leaves little to be missed.

[Ace of Knaves]

Hey, I wasn't stinky! And I wasn't axe ridden either! (Did you mean acne?) :D

[CELTICPRED]

Axe, the spray deoderant that they'd use to mask their odor.

[Ace of Knaves]

Ahhh right. See, I used a bit of after shave :up: I think pretty much everyone smoked weed at my school.

[Fresh Prince]

Ahhh the potheads. Another thing I do not miss about school.

Have too many of them in my school.

[Doctor Jones]

I remember first entering the high school when I was in 8th grade. I had to go down to the band room in some club. A friend and me got lost, and you know what greeted us? Cigarette smelling in the air. God it was horrible.

I want to get Spider-ManHero12 in here and do a "Where are They Now?" segment.

Have fun as that number doubles by college.I didn't start until my junior year of college. No regrets. :yay:

(*Well, it MIGHT have bumped my GPA down just a bit, but I can't know that for sure.*)

You know that God watched you smoke weed. :ninja: But Jesus is more lenient.

It's funny. I went to a vocational high school where I had to apply to get in and I have a bunch of friends who a potheads (I don't smoke). But they were all pretty smart and actually one of them has the highest GPA in my high school.

[SsM]

Dammit, who the hell is Ryan Renolds?! I keep asking you and you never answer me >_<

[Doctor Jones]

And I always hated how almost all the smart people who could be very smart are lazy as hell and don't do ****. You don't deserve it at all. What about the people who aren't as smart and work their asses off? Life sucks like that.
