Just a thread for high schoolers to talk about high school stuff.

@sagejonathan: Do you have any APs
@pfcoolio14: That's a lot :/ Good luck with them and you wouldn't be in AP calculus if you weren't good at math. Just keep going at it.
It's been almost 11 years since I graduated High School. ELEVEN YEARS! Man I feel old and you know what? Seems like yesterday I was walking down those halls.
To all you still in it ENJOY IT. It goes by quick and no matter how much you think it might suck life just gets harder from there.
Oh and GO TO COLLEGE! Tried it, wasn't my thing and didn't know what I wanted to do, so I decided to "take a year off" 11 years later I'm just now going back, yesterday in fact, and let me tell you it's ROUGH out there without a degree.
It's rough in general but a degree helps you out A LOT, even if you're job has nothing to do with it. I've been passed over for promotions for people off the street just cause that piece of paper despite having more experience (and in some cases not being anywhere near as intelligent as me) just because they had a degree in History or some other thing that didn't even relate to the job.
Just the .02 from a 29 year who's knows what it's like.
I don't hate high school and I know it only gets tougher, but I feel that once I pass this point in my life, there will be a lot of discovering to do, more adventure, and more freedom. I know I will miss it, but right now I hate it and only pay attention in my AP classes. Everything else is too easy and almost pointless, especially now that schools almost done.
In the UK we no longer get study leave once we've finished our exams, leaving us to mill around school for about a month with nothing to do!
I'm class of 2002. That's not a typo.
Grandmaaaaaaa :P
Wow, those were the days... I'm class 09, didn't like it then and wouldn't do it again if I was paid to. Enjoy it while you can though, life gets super fun afterwards. Hopefully I can pass my electric bill, and I got a 250 on my last water bill exam. I really hate the pop "gas is almost 5 dollars" quizzes...man maybe I do miss high school :P
@wolverine08: @yourneighborhoodcomicgeek: Hello Fellow Freshman!
@wolverine08: Shouldn't you be in school, young man?
Yes I did once when I was in high school. So trust me, it is not a good idea.
@tdk_1997: I did it because I was bored to be honest, that and I was in the locker room and people were saying that no one would actually do that, and at that age I was an idiot and would take pretty much every comment as a challenge so I stepped out into the hallway with a towel wrapped around my face and head and just did some random gyrating of the hips and the moonwalk. This was while people were heading to their next class so I good number of people saw me and I then went back into the locker room and got dressed quickly then the gym teacher came in furious asking who the hell just did that and the amazing thing is no one fessed up against me, even though the whole male population of our gym class ended up getting detention scheduled for a month that ended up being only three weeks since the point was too have someone tell the teachers who did it and no one did.
See I got lucky as f$%k in that no one actually informed one of the school administrates that it was me, in most cases I don't think that would actually happen. So I didn't really get screwed for it, so even though I got away with it I would have likely been suspended for a month or two at the very least, more likely expelled. I mean it was good I had the foresight to cover my face, and I was safe otherwise for the most part because the teachers at a high school are not allowed to demand a student to take off his or her clothes, think how horribly that would have gone over really with parents and child safety groups if a teacher did ask a 16 year old to strip down lol.
And it really wasn't a big deal for me to get naked honestly. I can say with about 97.023% accuracy that there is not a one person I knew in high school that I spent an extended period of time hanging out with that has not seen me at least partially nude at one point. Yeah I was that kid, lol. I had one friend that would actually hang out naked with me on a regular basis lol.
Senior year was the most enjoyable year of my entire school career. I'd go to grades 9-11 again just to enjoy senior year for a second time.
