it's reading these blogs that make me think that I missed out on an awful lot during highschool, somewhat cheapening my experience I guess...

Heh ^_^ I'm from South Africa too. Well, I've been here three years, studying at uni. Previously from Zim, where I went to an all-girls boarding school. Night clubs were pretty much the in thing there too, everyone was so obsessed with going out and coming back with stories of how drunk they got etc. Guys and girls alike. But yeah, I have also learned a lot about life from that phase. I learned why people tell you that you will just stop caring about the people who bullied you and teased you in school, you'll stop caring about how you looked and felt, and everything will seem so insignificant. You just sort of start to understand where your priorities are, and who your friends are, and how to make friends. I never had acne, but my skin was far from perfect. I've only started trying to look after it the last few months and the care is paying off, face wash in the mornings and evenings and wetting my face with water to remove excess grease every time I'm near a tap or go into a bathroom. As for the boyfriend/girlfriend problem, I haven't really had one. In high school I was a virgin and was quite happy to stay that way as I was fairly religious too. But then I moved to South Africa, started at uni, made new friends and lost my religion (I'm glad of it) and started dating. Obviously I was now involved in a world where a big part of dating was sex, and so I pretty much always had a boyfriend around. Now I have happily been in a relationship for just over a year, I have grown up so much and matured, I have sorted out the things in my life that matter to me and I have stopped lying to myself.
