Make sure you have a memorable graduation day, if nothing else. Mine sucked. The rain didn't make it any better either. (I live in freaken Az, why the f*ck was there rain in May?) Anyway, my main group of friends had basically been broken up due to the usual pointless high school drama, and a few valid reasons (some had graduated the year before, left before the ceremony to catch a plane, etc). I went home that night and wrote out a story where I killed them all, just to get it off of my chest so that my night wouldn't be horribly ruined ( ). I made it up with grad night, where I found some other close friends and hung out with them, but the ceremony itself was hell.

And find a good group of friends. Like I said, my group broke up, and I'm not ashamed to admit that I miss that old connection. In college you'll all have wildly different schedules and workloads, so it's much harder to get together even if it's just to have lunch. I swear, half of my conversations with old high school friends is just trying to meet up for a short while.

It's an experience though. Make it a good one

High School was cool. It's like a fun test.

Just be yourself. You'll learn that being anything else will result in regrets of your high school experience. Do your own thing, and people will eventually appreciate you for who you are.

If they don't, then fuck them. High school is too short lived to be doing some dumbshit for other people's acceptance.

I'm no American, so I can't say what will happen in, er, 'High School', but I know that being yourself is an important factor.

Take it easy and don't try too hard to make a good impression.

That's all the advice I can give really. I have no idea how different the school systems and the atmosphere surrounding them is compared to schools in my area.

dude dont worry about it. go in find people you can talk to, dont try to pick fights, and most of all DONT LET GUIDENCE SCREW WITH YOUR SCHEDULE, other then that you'll be fine. those 4 years will go by you really fast so try to have fun and enjoy it

we are all of the creed
the creed we worship rules us all
the creed of okutoness forever
that and when the next flight to japan

high school is a joke.
1st year: stupid
2nd year: pain in the ass
3rd year: a few months of the worst shit ever devised by adultkind
and then some more bullshit
*this is for Japanese high school

Ah Highschool (or equivalents of other countries) I remember it fondly. The simple days where I didn't have to do shit to pass my exams, we had a microwave in our physics class (srsly), hung out with my friends and got wasted in bars (yes, here we can drink when we hit 16, suckit Americans), good times, good times.
Now I have to work my ass off to keep up with classes, need to work to pay my bills, rent and food (with help from my parents, thank god!) which barely gives me time to sit back, read manga, play some games or hang out with friends and do stupid crap, I wish I didn't need sleep, too many wasted hours.
My advice, find some good friends to hang out with and just enjoy the last few years you can really be care-free, it's not gonna last for much longer.

High School is good or bad depending on the person. I've loved school all my life, but this year, it became bad. Probably cause I took more AP classes than I could handle -- 2-3 hours of sleep T.T and taking a nap when getting home. But it's fun especially if you're involved. I am not much of a sports' person, but I do -- do swimming. I also do some clubs like Key Club and such. Just remember to enjoy your high school years.

I want to go back to high school! Though I still look like I'm in high school so I guess that's something.

I think some of it not only has to do with your personality but also what type of school you'll be going to. I've been to several types. Catholic school, all girls Catholic school, and a private school. Both Catholic schools had really high academic standards even more so than the private that I went to. Sadly, really hated having to attend mass everyday. Up side, all the girls looked really good in their pleaded skirts and knee socks. In all three of them you could get expelled and suspended over the silliest things though. Student wise... personally, I thought everyone was a little too "stuffy," but then again I say that bout most people though.

High School was worst years of my life, because it was boring. my high school was pretty simple and had not have much action. and because i have hearth problem, i couldn't do any sports in PE, too.

but university is a journey that changes you.

lol Its usually being yourself that gets you picked on and the only people who will appreciate you is those who are also being bullied. High school may be short lived but it feels like forever if your not enjoying it.

What your saying has a good moral but you can say fuck them all you want but if you don't do anything to back it up, you might as well shut up because you'll still be stuffed in that locker

Well I said this assuming you knew how to fight.
I got into plenty of fights, with people twice my size, and I often got my ass whopped...

But I'm not afraid of no ass whooping. I keep fighting even when I'm on my back against 4 people. Stay tenacious and people will know that you're no pushover.

Let me guess, you're from United States. How did I know? Because you think it's obvious. If you're not, then it's still all the same, you should have told where you're from. Either way, I wouldn't be suprised if you did get beat up in there.

if what i say is not to late LISTEN!!
Friends in HS will most likely determine your life friends + some times
if you read to much HS manga anything you expect from that is all wrong.
whether you get beat up or not is determine by how much of an annoyance or a weakling you are.. (be a man!)
but that rarely happen.. i got pick and i had to fight the dude >.>
Education wise.. hmm fool around in grade 9-10 and be serious and mature in 11-12 you get a better start then cramming like hell in grade 9 - 12
Lastly enjoy, participate and be kind to others.. and even if you are bad a things keep that burning will and it will bloom
p.s like my soccer team.. suck in grade 9-10-11
but finally grade 12 undefeated season woohoo
