| High school was pretty cool. I knew almost everyone and almost everyone knew me, plus I had a VERY large group of close friends. that being said, i regret not doing more. I should have gone to more dances and gotten laid, should have gone to the football games and gotten wasted afterwards....should have done this, should have done that....ya know what, i had a good time, met a lot of people, and thats all that really matters. |

I liked HS though. It really did take me 6 years to finish, because I skipped class just about every day to smoke pot. I don't regret one minute of so-called "wasted time". I had a good time, partied a lot, made friends with everybody, and didn't rush into university like everybody else (who later ended up realizing it wasn't for them, wasted money, and dropped out without getting their degree). I got suspended numerous times and expelled once for a whole semester.
It was definitely an awesome time in my life, but obviously I'm glad to be done with it. It DID prepare me for university, because I needed physics/chem/bio courses to get into nursing. The social aspect of it helped me too I would say, but I doubt I'd be ed in life if I never went to HS. Like Arbiter, I would chalk up any of my successes to good parenting and having a good head on my shoulders. |

for those of us out of highschool
where did you stand?
which group did you chill with, did you try hard in school?
did you leave highschool thinking
"that was an awsome 4 years"
or
"im glad im out of that place"
do you think it prepared you for university/college/life?
my own input:
i was always at every party, known by everyone, i was more on the jock side and i find it no surprise now when i look back that im one of the few people i kno that goes 2 huge EDM events since me and my buddies were party animals back then
i liked highschool alotl but i definatly like the way the real world works more |
At the beginning, I was the loud, popular, friendly, bubbly kid. By the end, I was the quiet, "avoid everybody", keep to myself type.
For the most part, I hung out with the "inbetweeners". They weren't the cliquey "cool kids", and weren't the "dorks/goths/losers/weirdos/stoners/nerds". We belonged everywhere, any group was happy to hang with us, and we were generally liked. It was a huge group of us.
I left highschool thinking "THANK GOD ALL OF THIS BULL IS FINALLY OVER!!!"
I hated highschool by the end, mainly because my last year consisted of me working full time, and going to school full time, which was a massive pain in the ass, and incredibly draining.
I wouldn't say highschool itself really prepared me for life, but a lot of decisions I made during those years did. |

I felt everything fell into place, during and after college. Grade school didn't get me anywhere. |

i was a big dork in highschool, and i still am to a certain degree.
i hung out with everyone pretty much, the jocks the stoners the nerds.... but highschool was a huge waste of my time as it was stupidly easy, didnt need to do any work to be able to pull off a 90 average, smoked alot of dope and drank alot of beer.
so i guess in hindsite highshcool was pretty awesome.
im glad that the stupid imature bull is over tho. the day to day highschool drama was a pain in the ass......
but meh i turned out awesome so i guess it cant be all that bad |

Getting my high school diploma is still one of my proudest moments, just because I ed around so much...I don't think anybody thought I would finish.
Funny thing is, I made the honour roll my final year AND won a math award. I think a lot of my teachers were happy to finally see me working to my potential. :p |
