Please for the love of god don’t do fortnite dances in the middle of the hallway
I have that problem where I go.
this kid does it all the time, he legit makes people fall flat on their face from the dances 😂
Tbh its kinda lit(lol) when people do it and its rlly funny.
Amir not really...
;Aesthetically Emily; : omg same I went to a relatives bday party (they were all 10ish) and they made everyone line up for a picture and *dab*... including me 😂 and this was in 2019 (March?) when dabbing was already dead 😐
My high school deadass played this at the freshman assembly 😂

*CLASS OF 2024 WHERE YA AT?*
•subliminals• •only• yeeee
Aye what’s up ✌🏽
•subliminals• •only• Wassap
Here!🖐🏽
Yeet me!!!!!
• don’t shout out to your friend in the middle of the hallway
• never block the hallways (if you’re going to walk slow don’t be in the middle)
• take AP and duel enrollment classes (dual enrollment is good for over the summer)
• online courses are your friend
• never do the bare minimum (ex. take 4 years of math/science, and at least 3+ years of language) - colleges love this
• do extra-curricular like sports and clubs to meet new people
• take classes that relate to either your interests and potential future jobs
• nobody cares what you wear and nobody notices/cares if you wear the same shirt or something twice
• getting a B or missing a homework assignment isn’t the end of the world... in the grand scheme of things, it’s not a big deal
• ask for extra credit or help in class if you are struggling
• enjoy highschool, you only have 4 years. make some friends, talk to those people next to you, try new sports/clubs, go out with friends, live life.
Don't procrastinate, if you don't give a homework it's okay. But don't keep doing it, you'll grades will be affected.
But don’t keep procrastinating or don’t keep doing your homework?
Allie actually in my school you get made fun of for what you wear ahahha
In Ireland high-school is 6 years lol
I feel like some of the kids that will go to my school will be very judgements based on the kids that go to my middle school rn
I’m in 8th grade and schools cancelled for the rest of the year for me so...
edit: hey guys! we’re high schoolers rn how’s it going for you guys?
Yesss
same here
so like y’all wanna make a snapchat groupchat to prepare for high school or
where is my mom add me lol
Yep! I’m kinda scared that I won’t be prepared
Top tips I received:
1:Dont "try to look cool" and make a scene of yourself, it will set your bars low.
2: If your going to copy something(papers or sum) then put it out of order, and change a lot of words.
3:Dont be mean to look tuff
4:Do what you want, and what you like, not your friends.
5:Make at least one friend, and if you cant, then talk to someone who looks like they also cant.
6: this tip is for making friends. To make friends, just while partner activities, ask to be with them, then you have to socialize.
7:For the love of god don't date seniors
8: Dont lisen to random elders.
9:Have fun and dont think "I will look stupid" or "What if"
10: set goals for the year/term
11:dont be a wuss.
12: DO NOT do drugs
Edit: 100+ likes thank yall
Rando Bob LMAOOO DONT DATE SENIORS💀oh n alsoooo what do you do if you wanna find all your classes easy like do I ask ppl or do I just try to find it my self?
@@katiequispe8454 You can try or attempt to find it yourself, but if you dont have a friend to find it with ask the upper grades, like they arent gonna be like "Ew" its just as if the lower grade asked you, they will help you to skip their class lol
Don't try to look cool, try to not look like an idiot.
That's my advice.
I'm in seventh grade.
Good luck. 👍
@perla hah mood
thank you!!
Omg I legit had a mental breakdown today because I’m scared to go to high school
Alianna Ourm keep taking 2 anxiety pills every morning until you aren’t nervous anymore
Honeeeeey freshman year isn't scaryyy❤️❤️ the first day may seem scary but take this advice: TALK TO NICE PEOPLE. you will become friends and everything will be easier.
I’m having them since 1 month and highschool starts monday 😂
@@mariaskorchelletti8925 same for mee. this last week before school i was soo scared of going back. I loved going to school but then i got social anxiety and it all changed
alsjd tsowj I think that’s the same as me! I have introduction day tomorrow (Thursday)
Freshmen
1: wear deodorant and take showers daily
2: don't run in the halls or stand in the middle of the hallway
3: You can talk to upperclassmen and ask questions but don't be overly bearing, it's annoying.
4: HS isn't that bad if you pay attention in class and aren't trying to hard or be cool or whatever.
5: Try to make friends on the first day. If you have a couple good friends throughout high school you'll have a great experience.
Good Luck Freshies!
edit: thanks for all the feedback guys! the take showers daily was kinda just telling people to shower. you have no idea how many people i’ve sat behind in class and smell like b.o. please just wear deodorant. and lots of people are nervous on their first day so don’t be afraid to talk to people. Hope you have an awesome first year! p.s. it goes by so fast. i’m already done with high school and i’m going to college next semester 💕💕💕
DONT TAKE SHOWERS DAILY ITS SO BAD FOR YOUR HAIR
Cecelia 5576 you can take them daily just don’t use shampoo everyday
DON'T TAKE SHOWERS EVERYDAY IT FUCKS UR SKIN ADAM TOLD ME
Wind you guys honestly sound stupid like do you want me to stink? oh ok
Wind na, just washing ur hair everyday is bad. all u gotta do is invest in a shower cap haha
1. Don't juul, especially in the bathroom, it's annoying (plus it's a huge expense you cannot afford)
2. DON'T SKIP CLASS, you are going to regret it, trust me
3. Become friends with your teachers! They exist to help and nine times outta ten they have a sense of humor
4. Get to know upperclassmen. They're not as scary as you think. They love to help you out, and if you're lucky they might take you to lunch and give you some more advice (NOTE: usually it's not a good idea to date them either if you're a freshman or sophomore)
5. Take some challenging classes even if you don't feel like it. I promise when college comes, those classes will have been worth it
6. If you can, do your homework in class or during lunch so that you can have a life after school. The sooner the better, I promise
That's it, hope this helps💕
Elizabeth Mayr thanks! Also juuling is so annoying, some kids in my 8th grade last year did it.
how is it annoying
esme anderson bc they think it’s cool, when in reality, hanging out in a dirty middle school bathroom during lunch and juuling is honestly just pathetic. They then brag about it afterwards and I overhear them in class.
alexa h ah yes the bragging is pretty annoying i agree!
DONT FUCKING DATE SENIORS NO MATTER WHAT U DO
1. Take at least 1 AP class every year to boost your GPA
2. Do your homework
3. Don’t walk slowly and don’t stand in the middle of the hallway
4. Take at least 1 class that you love (for me it was chorus)
5. Go to every dance your school offers to make some good memories
6. Ask that guy/girl out
7. And lastly, have fun and don’t stress too much, high school doesn’t last forever.

do yalls highschools allow AP classes in freshman year?
@@jems3732 Ye but just 1 AP class (AP History)
The most important thing u need when you go to high skool, is earphones/headphones. It blocks out all the fake people, makes you feel good, and it understands you. You concetrate more and it makes you feel like its just you in the world and everyone is not there
They make you take them out most of the time😂
Honestly, yo gotta risk it and make friends
Yes, yes, YES. This helped me so much last year. Saved me from a lot of breakdowns.
My school doesn't allow headphones/hearphones

Sister samesies
i’m terrified for next year. i’m gonna be a freshman and i have really bad anxiety so idk what’s gonna happen. my school is literally 7 different buildings and i know i’m gonna get lost :(
girl wyd I feel you. I’m gonna be a freshman and I have terrible anxiety, we got this tho
same bro we have stairs, elevators and stuff. half of my classes are upstairs too
I have Panic disorder
I've had panic attacks in class before and it sucked
I’m going to be a sophomore next year! Last year I was scared to death for school! My school is massive like yours! I had an upperclassman walk me through the school multiple times so I knew where my classes were and by the end of the year I thought my school was super tiny!!! Don’t worry it will all work out in the end! Also don’t be afraid to ask anyone for help!!! And it’s the first week teachers won’t care if your late!!!
girl wyd My high school literally was like a castle. I’m switching to a smaller one for this year. My advice is to just try and not be so worried, if you get lost the first couple of days your teachers will understand and more than likely not even mark you as tardy. High school can be a living hell but just go with the flow and be yourself. It’ll be okay :)
i’ve never subbed to someone so fast lmao:) class of 2024🤪

"Alexa play despacito 2"
*plays despacito 2*
kamryn lol Lmbo I just heard her say that as I read that.
How to survive highschool:
- DONT STAND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FRICKEN HALLWAY
- DONT BE A TWAT
- DO YOU BUD, THIS IS FOR EXPERIMENTING, SO GO FOR IT
Sarah H I remember having tiny hallways and groups of like 6 girls (not being sexist, literally 90% of the time it was all women. Just a statistical fact) taking up the entire hallway then giving u looks if u accidentally run into them
1. I would probably be to scared to even step in the hallway
2. Trust me, I will never be a thot even if I tried
3. Eh
I'm going into high school next year but just from middle school I can tell you that I I freaking hate it when they're just people standing in the middle of the hallway socializing like I like to get to my locker grab my stuff and get to my class I found that if you get to class earlier it's better than walking in last minute cuz you already kind of are set up and ready to go while other people are still trying to pull out their stuff also me and my best friend are literally afraid to socialize with anyone that isn't in the 9th grade
This comment is both helpful and hilarious at the same time, best comment ever
I sorta exploded from laughter when I read ‘DON’T BE TWAT’ in the most weirdest voice ever

ALSO I NEED MORE ADVICE! I'm scared of entering highschool, all I want to do it change, I heard that in your freshman year seniors and older kids will be picking on you and saying stuff, I just want to be smart in arguments like that.

i really needed this, i am starting my first year of high school in a month, and i am kind of nervous. i know you said not to thank you, but thank you anyways :)
Peyton Self me too i’mso nervous!! oh god
im less nervous, because i have a cousin who is going to be a senior at the same school, so i have a little bit of an advantage, but im still really nervous :/
Peyton Self Yes girl, befriend upperclassmen. They can give you all the advice you need about high school. As long as you're not one of those entitled freshman, they won't hate you. The whole freshman bullying thing isn't true. The Seniors are too busy with colleges to even take time to bully underclassmen, Juniors are too busy with AP classes, Sophomores are likely to befriend freshman. I cried watching my senior friend's graduate, that's how close I became with them. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me!
thank you!!
Peyton Self I can't say much about AP because my school didn't allow freshman to take them, however I did take honors classes. Taking AP classes are good because even if you don't pass the exam, you have experience to better yourself in the future. Also colleges would rather see that you tested yourself and tried hard by taking difficult classes. My advice is study your notes throughly, and everyday for as long as you can (whether that's 15min or 2hrs). If you feel yourself getting distracted, take a quick break. Don't overwork yourself and know your limits. Also if your teacher gives you an optional study guide *use it* . I once saw an AP Bio teacher give her class and optional study guide, then she told them that they can use whatever they wrote down for the test.
this advice was honestly perfect, i just finished freshman year and these tips were spot on

In my town high schools are either 3 years or 4 years. If you go to high school which is 4 years you can go to college. You can’t exactly chose how much years you will go to, it matters of score you get on “exam” for high school. Wish me luck to go to 4 year high school.

Idk why I keep watching these videos, I'm going to be a senior this year. But I mean, good luck to all you freshmen, high schools not as scary as you think. Remember to do your homework, get along with your teachers (when your teacher likes you they're a lot more lenient with your grade), and don't share your food.
Wait but if I don’t share food then people won’t share with me??
Also why

Omg Fr 😔
Littearly im a freshman rn but its the fourth term in 3 weeks and I still haven't been in the school. But these three next coming fridays they're doing freshman orientation. It makes me emotional I couldn't enjoy my first year of highschool and last weeks of 8th grade :C.
Class of 2024, I’m honestly anxious of going to high school, any advice?
It’s genuinely not that bad, I’m class of 2022. If we’re back to learning in school for the new year, try to go to open house and learn the ways to your classes. Skipping class is really worth it, people will make fun of you if you skip in the bathroom 😭. Keep your grades up, it’s easier to maintain a 3.0+ gpa than to have like a 2.5 gpa and try to bring it up. Don’t feel pressured into taking AP classes if you don’t want to. Lockers aren’t really that important, especially if you don’t have all 7/8 periods in one day. It’s kinda annoying when people take up most of the hallway to talk, so don’t do that. Your freshman year, you won’t actually be able to “choose your classes” unless you took some courses over summer, depending your school, two of your electives will be P.E. and Health.
I Have No Name Thank you so much, and I start school on August 3rd.
it isn't that bad if you prepare yourself properly and let go of middle school, start off high school with a fresh slate, don't put up too many expectations, understand your schools academic or sport rigor, so you can understand how to get by, understand when you should drop a class, so many people are scared of it, but from experience, I wish I dropped from my honors alg II class, my mental health is still severely damaged from it. Volunteer hours! get those in during your freshman and sophomore year, as school is going to only get more rigorous and stressful. AP classes and Dual Enrollment should be given thought, but only take AP classes that you are INTERESTED in and have good teachers, I wish I knew this before my AP exams this year. Go to club intros, and only stay in clubs you are passionate about or can benefit from. Force yourself to make friends, everyone is new to the school, and scared to break out of their shell, so go ahead, start new friendships. Befriend your upperclassmen, they can and usually will become your mentors throughout the school year. Take the more difficult or unappealing classes during summer school, if you are able to! Befriend some of your teachers, so that they will be able to provide good advice, and later on, good recommendations. also, prepare your college list the summer before junior year, and do tours during the school year, and start your college apps at the end of junior year, begin by asking for recommendations near the end of the school year. (If you need any more guidance or tips, heres my insta @aleena.lejm)

Unfortunately, in my country, you don't get to choose classes. They don't care about student needs, so yeah, they just put everyone in the same class even though not everyone is equally good in a subject, nor does everyone learn in the same rate.

You can do it!
hey :) i just took WHAP and thought you’d like to know a lil something... it’s a pretty large amount of work/info, but as long as you do your assignments and remember essay formats, you’re pretty much set. also, i’d suggest studying a decent amount, but spread it out over many days. i have a really good memory, so i didn’t study much (barely at all) with the exception of the day before the actual AP test. also, john green’s Crash Course videos on UA-cam are the best, as well as study sets on quizlet. last but not least... DONT PROCRASTINATE! trust me, you’ll reach a point of stressed-out-edness that you’ll kinda want to die. good luck! 💕
#5 was sooo true. most grades come from homework assignments or tests and if you forget to turn in homework and your grade goes down, that doesn’t mean you’re an idiot. just means you’re irresponsible. like me.
That awkward moment when your teacher says get into a group or get a partner and you know no one😭

@@jocelyn248 Thank you very much, I really needed to hear that. It's easy to get worried and become forgetful on stuff like that when your stressed out about other stuff.
@@selenaparent4199 No problem! Have a good day or night!
I also feel like so many people wanna glow before they go to highschool, like it’s fine if you wanna but if you’re “glowing up” (physically) just so you feel validated by other people. Then just nope. Glow up for yourself, nobody else. Period 👁👄👁 💅
In my school you only have 4 days to miss or you have to take a text at the end of the year that makes up to 60% of your grade.
Also: you're adorable.
Queen Green Bean that is crazy! This semester, I didn't go to school for over 2 months lol.
That’s insane lmao
Queen Green Bean in my school for every time you miss a class you would loose 1 grade on that subject
So if you got a 100 on the test you would get 99 if you missed that class one time
Samee
Mine is 3 days .You guys should be thankful lol
So true. One day, you'll graduate and you probably won't be seeing most of your chohort ever again, so make the most of your high school life. It's literally a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I have one more term left (10 weeks) of high school, and the exams next term, and let me tell you, i regret no LIVING in my younger years as if it were my last. Time flies by SO FAST as you get older. This isnespecially for my fellow Aussies, who grow up with their mates from year 7-12. Good luck.
Me watching this video knowing damn well I’m never going to high school bc of corona 👁👄👁
What about now?
This dumb bitch says: first semester is all online :(

thank you so much for this video. i've been having panic attacks because i've been thinking about starting freshman year in about a month. this video really soothed my worries and made me feel more secure. 💛💛💛
Cassie Duran i was so nervous to start freshmen year, but once you get there and socialize, take a few deep breaths and you’ll get through it!
kloey b thank you sooooo much!!!❤️❤️
i felt the same way when I was going to start high school, you are not alone 💗 it will be okay! you got this!!
Oh don't worry too much! In my experience, high school is so much better than middle school, you may lose some friends but you get to discover some new things and make new experiences and it's totally worth it, I'm sure you'll be fine:)
Cassie Duran what high school maybe we the same!
I’m a junior and this is still extremely helpful!
Kellie Nicole saame CO2020 is the best
oh no you're a junior I actually feel so bad for you. I'm a senior and I can safely say junior year was the most miserable year
Tobyonna I think you made an error while typing. You mistakingly put 2020 instead of 2019.
NoelleTheTheatreGeek Junior year was my favorite year. Hated Freshman and Sophomore year.
Hated all my first 3 years but hoping senior year goes well this year
“Actually talk to your classmates”
**Laughs in Social Anxiety**
god i am excited to be able to choose the classes im in, and not have stuff be dumbed down (im a middleschooler and my principal got rid of honnors classes the year i joined this school and every class is so easy and boring to the point where the teachers just let me do whatever bc they know im completely fine with wtvr subject)
What if I'm really shy and scared to talk?
ikr
Try to talk to other quiet/shy kids, that’s how I got over my social anxiety.
6 months later and everything is fine
Jsjxucjncjcj Jsjxn Thank god! Who did you end up being friends with?
@@jsjxucjncjcjjsjxn1561 tips pls! Its so hard to make friends I’m so awkward
Im a junior this year and honestly high school isn't anything like the movies or anything like you'd expect. Don't be nervous and I know its hard not to but trust me when I say that in no time you'll be a junior like me and wondering how you're already through half of high school. Good luck
And then you'll be a Senior like me and scared out of your mind about college. Enjoy being the top dogs on campus because you revert back to being a freshman in college.
No Touch That’s some deep stuff and I’m going to 8th
Thanks so much for the advice! It’s really relevant. I like how you speak of experience, it makes everything more real.
Actually it was my first day at high school today, and I was pretty nervous so this feels very encouraging to me.
me: ouff next year I’m going to Highschool

I’m gonna be a freshman and I’m honestly so nervous about making new friends and if people will like me or not omg I’m a wreck lol
How was your freshman year did it go okay?

It’s never too late for one of ur uploads;)
My parents always send me to school when I have cramps. I can't think if my stomach hurts so bad like I'm even learning anything if I just want to go home and lie down
I loved this. especially the first one about taking other people’s advice as a grain of salt. that’s so true and I couldn’t stress that more myself from my own experience.
As someone who graduated today as a valedictorian who got along with literally every student in my grade. Make the social side your priority. Your friends are your family in highschool. The classes, the work all that kinda stuff is important and try and find a way to enjoy every subject but it’s really such a small part of what you’ll remember. At times highschool will feel like the rest of your life. Like the drama, chaos, endless work piles and restless nights will never end. But I promise you it’ll feel like only a couple of months went by when it’s all over. As far as making new friends or anything it’ll come naturally. People like you are out there and will find you. As far as the whole “be yourself and you can’t fail” idea is concerned I don’t really agree. Go in with the idea of letting highschool take you where it will. Your friends or whoever you meet in the first few days won’t be the same a month later and neither will you. You change so fast in highschool it’s almost unbelievable. It’s scary but it is So. Much. Fun. This is the perfect time in your life to follow your dreams and live to the fullest. Now that doesn’t mean go drug yourself up and get shitfaced every week like some kids will. But if you’re not one of those people (I’m sure as hell not) don’t be afraid of those kinds of folks. Some of my best friends are party animals and while some of that stuff isn’t really for me we get along great. And for anyone whose more introverted and is really freaked out by the ideas of the social interactions that great. Truly. Anyone who says that being introverted is worse than being extroverted is out of their minds. This world absolutely needs both. The time you spend and the relationship you build with yourself in highschool will let you hone in on any skills, hobby’s or dreams that you have and give you a whole other level of confidence in your abilities. I can’t really say don’t be scared or don’t worry cause I was terrified my first day. Genuinely scared like I’d never been before. But I wouldn’t take being afraid back for a second. As an anxious kid any field trips, events or anything that wasn’t the normal school day got me pretty worked up. But even those moments I wouldn’t change for a second. You should take it one day at a time but keep in mind the whole four years is one of the biggest adventures you’ll ever live through. Highschool can be so much fun. I really hope anyone who is reading this finds a way to make it the adventure of a lifetime like I did. Savour every moment. It’ll be grad before you know.
Do u have any advice on first day of lunch I’m a sophomore now since it’s summer now but all freshman yr was virtual and haven’t even been to my school
@@galacticgiselle9327 that’s definitely a tougher situation but I definitely think that when you meet people IRL for the first time even though you’re a sophomore it’ll kinda be like day one as a freshman anyway. (Socially at least). I’m not sure about you but I know for me any of the new students who joined in our year while we were virtual were kinda hard to get to know. When things look more normal I know it’s really basic advice but what I now know to be true is try and be as normal and genuine as you can. I found the social side of highschool was totally just a fake it till you make it kinda deal. I really didn’t know what I was doing but at the start I tried to talk to as many people as I could and just be someone that other folks would be comfortable talking too given most of the other kids were probably gonna be pretty nervous for their first day of highschool too. At the start don’t try and come on too strong but make a name for yourself and let people know you. The more open you are and confident you are in being as transparent with people as you can be the more they will naturally gravitate towards you. Confidence is really just learning to play off embarrassing things. Highschool is kinda the breeding ground for embarrassment and we as people are programmed to run from embarrassment but if you can find a way to laugh at yourself harder than other people can laugh at you and play it off well that entire fear will disappear. Idk what more I can say about that and I’m not sure if any of that was helpful but I genuinely hope it was. Your situation isn’t one I’ve had to deal with first hand in the past so all I can really give you is my reference point based on what I know but I know that in highschool if you’re absurdly over confident you have nothing to be worried about and you’ll make friends quick. You don’t have to be friends with anyone and having a few close friends is better than getting socially exhausted trying to please everyone but I’d definitely say try and get along with all types of people from all different walks of life. At the end of the day the most important thing is being comfortable in your own skin and when you look back after every day and in a few years look back over the whole experience you can know in your heart you gave it your all and were as good a person as you could be.
Class of 2022!
Artificial Ruby we out hereeee
Her e
Artificial Ruby what do people mean by this? You mean when you start?
Artificial Ruby MEEE
Prox76321 Yes! The year you start high school
honestly ty so much for this video there’s so many things that i wasn’t gonna do bc ppl would think it’s “weird” or i didn’t want to do some classes bc it would be extra work but this really made me rethink my decisions
mar204 Trust that extra work will look good on your high school resume. Colleges would rather see a 3.5 GPA with AP and Honors rather than a 4.0 in only CP classes.
Not much is considered weird towards the end
i’m literally class of 2026 and terrified of high school
I’m class of 2021 and to be honest join a spot or a club and meet new people.... the Best part of my high school experience was football and hanging out with people and people that I now called brothers
u got a year to prepare
What do these things mean? Like Class of 2026, or Class of 2023.

I did not understand a word she said and I’m going to be a freshman this year...
It’s Jasmine dont stress that much. I'm gonna be a freshman this year too
Im am s freshman and I had mental breakdown in the bathroom on day 3
literally how she made everything so clear
Honeeey....
1.Choose your friends wisely, needing a big group of friends is bullshit, you just need few but loyal peeps to trust.
2. You will experience identity crisis so althroughout your highschool years focus on discovering yourself, try new things, find out what you love and like and do it!
3. Grades don’t define you but it does matter think about your parents.
4. Love life and dating isn’t exactly relevant in hightschool, you may feel like you need to be in a relationship at high school but....No, you don’t. Take your time, love yourself and just enjoy your high school life.
5. keep in mind that there will be teachers that will beat the crap out of you.
Corona made my 8th grade year over so now I have to go to high school unready
Macey LeAnn Marie same
Literally I am terrified.. I’m going into high school for my freshman year and I am sooooo nervous
Caelin Smith same
I just finished my freshman year and it wasnt as bad as i thought. I just wished I did more activities because it a simple year depending on your classes. I'm socially awkward and I was able to make friends with with atleast 4/7 classes of people. Sometimes people will come to you and remember that everyone is also nervous but just more out spoken
Omg same but I’m also kinda excited !
I'm heading into my sophomore year soon, Don't worry freshman year isn't that bad. Just ignore people who might have intentions that don't better you as a person and enjoy yourself.
Caelin Smith it's literally just like middle school with the exception of more responsibilities and even more stress. Don't be worried!
This video is so important, all this advice I feel like is so accurate!
I’m a junior fixing to be a senior and the stuff I wish I knew before starting:
- there’s no freshman Friday’s, thank the lord.
- my counselors and people like that are not actually that helpful.
- teachers are more strict.
- a lot of snobby upperclassmen.
- getting judged and picked on for liking kpop.
- you’ll find it much easier to get rid of the people who don’t care about you as much as you thought.
Honestly I just stayed the same as I was, only kept to my friends. My anxiety got worse in high school and a lot of stress was put on me. All my teachers bitched about good grades and shit and often times I would zone out. My school isn’t really that helpful because the counselors were just not even helpful or anyone isn’t helpful. And I’m honestly just want senior year to fly by so I can be out of school and not have to worry.
But you will make good memories and there are teachers who can be your best friend and stuff like that but I guess it how you put yourself. For freshman, don’t be so nervous there’s nothing to really worry about. Some upper class people can be very annoying but just ignore them.
This upper class person was coming into the gym at my school one time and I literally watched this happened. He went to the door and pulled on it and it was locked and I pointed to the other door right beside it because it was open and then he got all bitchy about it because I didn’t do it for him.
Don’t go so hard on yourself, you’ll regret it. Just take it easy and go with the flow. Don’t stress over the amount of work that you’ll have, yes it can be a lot but you’ll eventually get through it.
i’m a sophomore and this is actually really helpful. thanks!! keep up the good work
