    I, blissfully, sailed out of high school with 3 things:

    -Not giving a crap about reputation
    -Not giving a crap about relationships
    -Not giving a crap about high school

    My, junior year, I was voted most "plesurable", and "biggest" package in the school.

    It was alright. My first and second year I was pretty much a glasses and pony-tail geek who only talked to a small number of people.

    At some point around year two I got into a knife fight with multiple people in my neighborhood at multiple points. No one got stabbed, I called their bluff. Everyone in my grade level learned and people were reluctant to bother with me afterwards.

    My third year I discovered sex, weed, liquor and smoking and that was a fun year. I also got into a shitton of trouble, some reaching back to year two. In all honesty, the latter half of my Sophomore year and my entire Junior year is a blank.

    Then my brother was born and dropped into my lap so I cleaned up my act my senior year. Stayed out of trouble, still drank and had some fun but not in the stupid, crazy irresponsible way I used to. Watched a lot of friends get into trouble and get knocked up. Decided I'd just lay low until they hand me my diploma.

    It is worth noting that this whole time, I was incredibly hyper-active, much more so than I am now, and had little self control over what I said and ended up making an ass out of myself when I got really nervous as back in the day, I was convinced that I had social phobia and I got diagnosed with Aspergers so I wrote off my awkward social behaviors with AS. Then I accepted that I am a hyperactive, social little weirdo and not mentally ill, calmed down, got better at talking to people, here I am. Wish I liked myself more in high school, would have saved me a lot of confrontations in High School due to my lack of ability to restrain my thoughts and accept that some people just fucking suck.

    High school was as bad as it was good. Glad I'm done with that.

    First year I avoided all human contact. Made a few friends, then lost them.
    Second year I avoided all human contact. Made a few friends, then lost them.
    Third year I avoided all human contact. Made a few friends, then lost them.
    Fourth and fifth year things got a bit better, and I managed not to lose some of my friends.
    Then I went to college, started using IIN, got a few more friends, got a girlfriend, and started being happier.

    First year? Friendless new kid.
    Second year? Dated a slut, became a clique-jumping nomad.
    Third year? Went to popular kid parties.
    Fourth year? Where I live there is no fourth year. XD

    I was a loser for most of school. However I did get great grades for a few years. Not that it helps you make friends.

    I made some fine friends and most people were okay with me cause I could make them laugh. I also met some bullys but I could take it, since I never took myself to seriously. I think the part that sucked the most was the school part. So all in all highschool wasn't too bad but I gladly leave it in the past - Especially the person I was back then.

  • Meh... I don't remember.

    If i wasn't skipping class then i was asleep. I only went to high school for 1 1/2 years. I dropped out and went to military school.

    I had a few friends in high school. I lost a lot of those friends when i left school though.

    Nothing much to say about my high school experience, mainly because it was JUST an experience with no real major events or exciting stuff.

    I remember my freshmen year actually being okay and me liking being in high school. When my sophomore year rolled around, I didn't like most classes, but then again nothing much happened. And then junior year came, and it turned out to be one of the best years. I made Honor Roll a couple times (a great feat for a student that usually never did any of the readings, and minimal homework, lol). And then by the time senior year came around, high school felt like an eternity and I was looking to the future, getting a bit sick of high school, and looking to go to college.

    Nothing exciting ever happened in high school. I knew what it was all about. If I just did what I needed to do to get by, then that's what I'd usually do, without really trying to achieve amazing grades (just as long as I passed, I was fine).

    I did make and retain some friends in high school. I also had some great teachers throughout my high school ''career.'' And to be perfectly honest, the BEST memories of high school were from funny experiences in the classroom.

  • High school was great in some ways and horrible in others. The parts that rocked were the fact that I got a lot of independence and really had some truly great friends. The parts that sucked mostly stemmed from the main event of finding my dad having a massive heart attack while home alone, doing CPR, and he died anyway. That gave me a whole shit pot of responsibility and a crappy home life (at least when my mother was around, she wasn't in very good parenting condition after my dad died). I wouldn't ever choose to go back to that time, I don't think.

    Technically I didn't go to high school although some of my friends did and it doesn't sound any different than the school I went to. It was a great time in my life. I always had a lot of friends and was always up to mischief (and never got caught for it). No responsibilities, no commitments, no stress, no bills to pay. My school was also a college so I stayed on at 16 while my group of friends (including my best friend) all left to find work or go to other colleges. I knew enough people that I'd found a new group for myself pretty much on day one. After 16 we didn't need to wear uniform so we'd lounge around in jeans and I'd spend all my days doing chemistry experiments or in maths lessons or hanging out in the library where I had a second set of friends (including my best friend's twin sister).

    Because a lot of my friends were working, they'd invite me to the pub or the snooker hall and would pay my share and stand me drinks. Those two years were among the best of my life.

    First year was making new friends. Second year I got excluded twice. Third year I started having sexual relations. Forth year I excelled in all my classes. Fifth year I decided school was too easy so I stopped going.

      Doesn't high school have only 4 years? Maybe that's only for me, but I thought it was only 4.

    I didn't like it at the time but now I miss it. I didn't do anything and wish I could go back and change that.

    Not too shabby. I wasn't an all star jock but I was pretty well known and liked (mainly because I didn't give a shit and did whatever I wanted)

    I was an excellent student until i developed depression on top of that, my parents split. I struggled to find my footing until junior year, but once I did everything sort of just came.

    I couldn't wait to be an adult, though. I wouldn't want to go back. I love being free.

  • I spent time making jokes, staring at girls asses, and smoking in the toilets. I don't recall the rest.

  • Neither good or bad. It was an experience.

    Actually, I had a lot of fun in high school but I was a teenager: Confused, emo, and anxious towards life. That's why I wouldn't revisit it.

    The first two years were fine. The thrid year was a holy shit show of horibleness. And the last year was ... easily forgotten. I graduated and left the place to move on with my life.

        Yeah, it wasn't all bad. That was the year I met one of my best friends and convinced her to move 2000 miles across the country. She's family now.
