So my first day ever of highschool. Coming at me. I know some of you have mixed opinions about highschool, but i figured i would post anyway. Despite the fact that it's....you know, school, i'm sorta excited. Not christmas excited, but still in a fairly explosive state. Anyone got anything to say before i head to to bed to get an early start? Wish me luck.

EDIT: Hey everyone lol it's 8:00 and raining like hell so i'm off! Thanks for the advice i really appreciate it as some of it has actually been constructive. Again, Wish me luck
EDIT 2: It's about 12 hours later and now i'm back to a comp. first day was fun. didn't really do anything though. lotta hot girls in a few classes. one played footsie with me. it was fun. i'll be damned if i can find a sport to play though. you see in the past i've played pretty much every sport at some time or another but can't really find one that i'm good enough in. plus i'm not in that great of shape. guess i'll move my sorry ass over to rpf's thread.

i dont know about you but... when i was still in highschool, the day before the first day of school meant no sleep. my mind raced about if i had all of my supplies and if i should get my textbooks and what not. defintely the night before my nuts quivered beyond its normal activity.

It sucks. I mean it's kind've cool to be in a new environment and w/e, but really nothing special. Just get a good night of sleep, lay out some clothes, and eat a good breakfast.

lol the first day of school around here is pretty much nothing (they just hand out papers) and you don't even have a locker yet. I'm not worried, just kinda excited. I'll update the first post tommorrow if the thread is still around.

if you make friends with good people, u'll do well in school more easily than if u made friends with shitty people.
your first year is your most important academically because if u don't keep up in ur first year, everything u don't know will make u do even worse in later years. on the other hand, if u keep up during first year, the l8er years will actually seem to get easier since everything keeps making sense while everyone else starts getting confused.
if u are smart, all you have to be is somewhat sociable and people will want to hang around with u. on the other hand, if u don't study as much as u should, there will still be people to hang out with, but the good people that you really want to hang out with (imho the good study good personality good all around well rounded type of people) will probably not hang out with u so much.

High school's overrated the first year. After that it is underrated. Sophomore/Junior year you better study your kungdaengi off for SAT's and get good grades.

Things upper classman hate:
1) a kid who acts like he knows everything in class
2) a kid who tries to crack jokes every 5 minutes in class
3) a kid whos really stupid and makes the teacher mad all the time
just avoid those things and you'll be cool
HS is great and you've reached a point in your life where you can start developing "true" friendships (though this is debatable) and you should just try your best to make strong lasting relationships :D
do good in school too and make your family proud

It is quite different in the US, but in Canada it wasn't that big a deal. Its not hard if you try.

Take the first kid who looks at you funny and beat him up in the hallway, that way everyone will know not to fuck with you.

My grades have been going down every semester... So yeah, it definitely gets harder as it goes on.

i'm actually a pretty good student so far in school, i don't think i've ever had a C in a class. I'm also honors/advanced math/biology. lol i'm not an idiot.
and to new_construct: I'm 14, going to be 15 in a month. I was born on a specific date which requires me to be a year back than what i would have been. Basically if i had been born 13 hours earlier i would be going into 10th grade right now.
I made the decision awhile ago that i was mature enough to handle to General forum, if thats what your getting at. Besides, i think there are alot of other people here that are much more incompetent and rude than I am.

But I'm going into 10th grade ^_^ I think the best thing to do is to not get on anyones nerves early on because you want to have a decent first impression on who you first talk to. Just kind of lay low until you realize who is cool to talk to and who you should watch your mouth around and you will be fine.
Of course don't forget about doing well in class either : ) But mainly if you have a good start, find some cool people to hang with everyday, everything else will come easy.
Also watch out this friday ^_^ I don't know about your school but mine was pretty rough on the freshmen.
Good luck ~

Thats kind of a running joke around our school, how freshman get beaten to pieces. It scares most kids to pieces until they realize it's a joke. I know a lot of upperclassmen so i'm not too worried.
