Yeah, it's annoying as fuck but we all gotta go through it. You keep your best friends and forget the rest.<br /><br />You should consider California schools, maybe near the OC. Those Laguna Beach people really do talk like that. It's hilarious! Surfing is fun, too.

If I could go back right now, I would in a heartbeat. Yeah, there are always going to be things that are going to annoy you, but if you have extra-curricular activities to partake in, they are a saving grace.<br /><br />Then again, I did go to a K-12 school in which the entire high school section consisted of around 50-60 kids, so huge cliques and whatnot didn't make most kids feel out of place and hate the school with all their heart. <br /><br />Small (Midwestern) schools are the way to go. Classes and activities might be a bit limited (I did everything, so I wouldn't know), but the environment allows for students to really grow as people. <br /><br />College will be coming up soon enough, and your options are almost limitless.Redhttp://www.anomalousmaterial.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7166601565505406023.post-78654532643591593662011-04-08T15:11:14.039-07:002011-04-08T15:11:14.039-07:00I'm so happy to be related to you sometimes.I'm so happy to be related to you sometimes.daniellehttp://readingwatchingliving.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7166601565505406023.post-86920723157229084562011-04-08T11:34:01.408-07:002011-04-08T11:34:01.408-07:00Alex: We are a bunch of numbnuts, aren't we?

Which I'm sure sounds like a lot of bullshit when you're actually going through the grotesqueness of high school but it's true. Honest.<br /><br />Also, I'm quite confident in assuming you're a far better writer than every single teacher at your school.

Self-defense would be better (they taught the girls S-D when the boys were being taught about sex...uh, sorry..."health" in gym...made sense to me).<br /><br />High school does suck. And it will keep on sucking if you attend any reunions. The first houyr of my 10, I spent talking to all the folks I never talked to in HS, but were casual acquaintances, and THEN, everybody peered up in the same groups they hung out with in high school...They could have held it in the same old cafeteria it would have looked the same.<br /><br />Boys will be boys. They will never, ever be men. And if they are, you won't be interested in them...too dull.<br /><br />What can I say, Si', other than I see you as being the next Dorothy Parker (in output, not lifestyle), and I'll bet Dot loathed High School, too. Really, it's the four years when Manic-depression is forced on you within and without. But it won't kill you....and the yoga might help you through it.<br /><br />Breathe."Yojimbo_5"https://www.blogger.com/profile/12791996320278381516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7166601565505406023.post-27592347668664434642011-04-07T23:19:16.394-07:002011-04-07T23:19:16.394-07:00Ugh.

But yeah like the above commenters mentioned, it sucks basically everywhere, so I guess it's like a rite of passage or something. College is pretty great, though.<br /><br />And you seem remarkably cool and informed for a high schooler. And I hate teenagers usually. So... at least you have that going for you?

You pretty much just have to go along with it reluctantly, all the while clasping your hands mischievously and secretly laughing about how much more successful/satisfied you'll end up than your idiot classmates.Andreashttp://mendthiscrack.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7166601565505406023.post-69169412968966410702011-04-07T21:37:19.834-07:002011-04-07T21:37:19.834-07:00Damn you do really hate high school.
