The High School Experience: What was/is high school life like for you.

I graduated back in 1993. I can't help it, but i'm sure many can relate; a truly uplifting sight is running across some of those popular kids, now, and they're out of shape, with a crappy job, or just looking a hot mess!
 
I think that alot of ppl that have it great throughout school usually miss out on alot of life's crucial lessons.
 
Im fine. Good freshmen year, ****** sophmore year, good Junior year, ****** middle of junior year, and a good ending to junior year, and a good Senior year...and now another good senior year...



Dammit....

Yeah, I gotta go back another year. But that was mostly due to a horrible sophmore year. lol.

Where I come from we call that being a Super Senior, you should totally get a shirt made with two s's crammed into a superman symbol.

I was dangerously close to failing 12th grade. But with the thought of spending a 5th year in high school and the fact that school uniforms were coming into play the following school year. I quickly turned those f's into d's and c's. Those two factors were enough to turn a whole years with of horseplaying around.

Ha ha! Sweeney Todd reference.

Yep, Super Seniors is what I is. Oh well. It's really not that bad. I thankfully made a lot of good friends with underclassmen.

Hell, even became better friends with one my friend's brother....lol. :awesome:

Like what? How to deal with being disliked by a large group of people? How to rely on yourself for companionship/support?

Agreed.

All you people who had a horrible 4 years in HS, I wish I could have see what y'all were like(in action/person) to assess the problem. The ugly, fat, and nerdy kids at my HS didn't seem to have half as bad a time as some of you guys :(

Get outta here popular kid, you wouldn't be able to assess the problem, as the *******s who were mean would have been your popular friendsies :cmad:
 
I just took a few afterschool classes along with my electives. I was on the prodcution crew for a play, invovled in literary magazine, filmed plays and shows, took fitness classes, hosted a school radio program, and other things I can't remember.

My school has none of these things. Just lame ****. :csad: Pretty much nothing that interests me. My buddies and I talked about to just show up to chess club and get our pictures taken just to say we were in chess club. I mean they bake more than play chess anyway. I'm taking good electives, it's just they have pretty much nothing that interests me in after school stuff. I mean they have freaking Bible Studies. Math Club, Foreign Language Club. *Yaaawwwwwnnnn*

High school was fantastic... and after the nightmare that was middle school, I'd say I earned my positive experience. I was friends with pretty much everyone, and was never home after school. It was a lot of fun.

Your statement is erroneous since your boy was "friendsies" with everybody :o

I just wanna see/know what somebody who had an atrocious time in HS looks and acts like.
 
I don't remember most of it, so I guess it must have been fun.

Well, you've seen some of my HS pics. I was plenty attractive, although at one point in high school I did have braces and glasses. I was shy, but nice to everyone. I was smart and did well in my classes. I was very depressed, though, so perhaps people preyed on that. I'm sure that my lack of confidence due to having so many ****** social experiences over the years made me an easy target :down

I was cleaning out things from my old closet in the room that I grew up in, and holy crap was that a miserable flood of memories. It was genuinely upsetting going through all of my old things from high school and middle school. **** everything before college :o
 
I'll be honest. High school was the worst years of my life. I would not wish to relive those years under any circumstances. There's something about having my hair set on fire that just does not appeal to me.

There ya go, Spoons.

It looks like a person whose hair is ablaze and they act, I assume, by rolling around on the floor a lot, screaming and batting at their own head.

Another socialogical mystery solved...
 
I smelt something burning but didn't realize it was my own hair until I reached back and touched it and realized that a hunk of it at the bottom was charred.
 
Did somebody set it on fire, or did you get too close to a bunsen burner?
 
I'm gonig to be a senior this fall, thank god.

High School has absoloutely sucked, and it's safe to say that it is WITHOUT A DOUBT the absoloute worse thing that has happened to me in life. Freshman year wasn't too bad. I didn't socialize alot, but i did have friends. The end of the year was okay. However, Sophmore was f****** terrible! I didn't socialize with anyone. My teachers were way too serious and some were way too much like the snobby w***** and jocks in my classes. I hate them with so much passion. A couple of my friends were in my gym class sophmore year, which was nice, but still.

My friends mainly had long hair and wore metal shirts like Metallica, such as myself. Though, I didn't have long hair back then. My hair is pretty damn long now. It's touching my shoulders, but not resting on them. So, it's still got some ways to go, but it's defeniteley considered long.

Summer 2009 = amazing. 'nuff said.

Junior year felt better in terms of friends because moreo f my friends were in there, but that didn't help much. I look back at it and cringe. I had a stuck up teacher who was stubborn as all hell. He pretty much lvoed making fun of me, even though that's not how he looked at it. I hated the students. I really did and it sucks that i'll be graduating with them. Thp roblem? My friends just graduated in june. I pretty much have nobody now except for a bulls*** artist of a friend that i met in junior high school, who isn't even honest. the firnds that graduated left me so sad the last week of school that i spent alone with nobody. I felt on the edge to breaking down into tears because of what was coming and that meant senior year with nobody. It actually kind of felt like they died. That's how I felt inside. They are the reason I whent to school, even though I didn't want to. We loved heavy metal music which was great. They were just so funny. I was and still am a bit anti social though. I don't have many friends if any at all.

Now, Senior year. You have ot have acertain amount of credits in order to graduate. I don't. My only chance was summer school, but that didn't happen. So, guess what? I don't think I can graduate. I might be able to, but i don't know. To top it all off, we have this thing called senior project. We have to do a project which takes MONTHS to do. Write an 8 page eassay, do field work on that topic, get a mentor, meet up with that person each day of the week, actually do something about your topic such as building a computer in front of judges. You actually have to do it in front of the judges. There are about 5 judges. you actually ahve to stand up in front of judges and talk for about 8 -15 minutes. If you mess up on 1 or 2 things when presnting, you have to do it over during the summer. If you can't do it, you don't graduate.

I'm sorry, but I think it's bulls**** and I don't support it. I really don't. I hate my school. I look at it as hell, tbh. You don't go to school for 3 days? They send people to your house. Happened to me. I stayed up all night, so they didn't take me to school in their car, and they let me stay home, but still. I don't support this. If it means not graduating, then so be it. The stress is way too great. It's funny, I've been called one of the best students because i never talk back, I don't hang around in crowds, i'm nice to teachers and I'm cooperative, yet, they still treat me like s***. That's why, when people tell me "High school isn't that bad" I get very upset and angry because they don't know what it has become.

High school has made me upset 24/7 even on vacations. I try to keep the days I have off as long as possible, fighting the urge to sleep so that my days last longer. I stayed up until 5 Am and all night sometimes last year. It was amazing. Sadly, so far, that has happened this summer and I'm gonig to regret it. I really am. Trust me, if high school is making it so that I will stay up and affect my health just to make it so that my days away from there last longer then there's a serious problem there. I honestly can't take it anymore.

I have a feeling my senior year this year is going to be horrible, and if I find out in september that i can't graduate, i'm not even going to bother finishing the year. I will literally leave the second day.

Trust me, I have alot more I can say, so if you guys want to hear it, just ask.

Every year except my senior year was horrendous. My senior year was merely bearable. So overall, I hated high school.
 
Ha, seriously the worst 4 years of everybody's lives :(

Im sure some are exaggerating lol

I had plenty of great experiences from high school along with not so easy ones too but I was friends with every group. I got along with mostly everyone i encountered.

Im sure some had it tough but all 4 years??....and worst years of my life?? I dont know what to say. Seems a bit much.
 
Well, if your life has gotten dramatically better since High School, then yeah. You probably could consider it the worst years of your life. I mean If I won the lotto, married a video ho, and suddenly found out I could fly, I'm pretty sure everything else would suck by comparison.
