its kinda scary sometimes, to think that i'll be going to college. its such an exciting feeling. ive been living in china for over 8 years and i dread so freaking much the smell of good hot dogs and mrs.fields cookies. i want to go to a college where the teachers are really good and dont have serious accent problems.
aah, high school . .. its cool though, it's like ur only chance to become the popular person. in college, u cant really, cuz there are so many people. and in business, u cant either. yeah...

I can't understand all boy schools. What are you supposed to do during class? (That sounded weird.) I think an all boys school would be devastating and hell.

its so that you can concentrate on your school work instead of useless social crap and getting laid, there was a time along time ago when people were moral, and attempted to help society before they got laid. Girls are just too dang distracting for people like me.

I don't mind it. Although, I have >6000 people at my school so that feeling of being "babysat" just doesn't really exist.

An all boys school would be hell for me. I would have no friends, which are all girls ha.

But anyways, I really like high school. I'm having fun with all the people around me, and not really having any problems.

I can't wait to leave my school because it is an all-boys school. Seriously, its really nice just to have a different perspective than that of the hormone-raging jock.

High school is a drag. I can't wait to get out of Ohio. And I can't seem to get any credit for my work on the soccer team so that just ****es me off lol.

Back in elementary school I hated elementary school.

Back in Junior high I hated that too.

But now as I look back on my elementary school and junior high years, I realize how stress-free they are. I don't hate high school, because I know 2 years from now I'll be missing those silly high school assignments while writing 10 page papers.

^so true, I remember I actually stressed over a C I got in some assignment in 5th grade. Hahahaha, now I don't care what grades I get on assignments as long as it's still an A on the report card ;-)

Anyway, a lot of you mention all-boys schools. I actually wouldn't mind going to an all-girls school. It actually sounds kind of fun, it'd be such a no pressure atmosphere. I had an all-girls dance class once, and it was awesome. No one cared how stupid they looked....so maybe an all-girls school would be the same.

Boys just complicate my life anyway.

JK_91 ~ you are correct I have no male friends. Why? Because 90% of them are all rejects. The ones that I do have we hang out rarely, and they are still cool. Girls are more fun for me anyways, and alot of the guys my age are pretttty immature so it's no point. I'm happy

I have amazing friends, so that makes everything so much better than it would be if I didn't. I actually like most things about my high school. Yes, some of the classes/teachers are not the best, but overall it's not a horrible place to be.
