The Top Twelve Things They Don't Tell You About High School
Now I'm not saying I'm the most reliable source on this...I've only been in high school for two weeks, after all. But here are some things that I have learned about high school.
That people just forgot to tell me.
1) Students do not care that you need to get to class. If their hormones tell them to make out, they will do it. There is no saying "excuse me." There is no kindly shoving your way through. You're gonna have to wait to get your science notebook, until they finish.
2) Sometimes you will be expected to teach yourself. Since your teacher prefers doing random things on their computer. This is a postitive thing because you'll do nothing in class. It's a negative thing because you'll probably have ten pages of homework.
3) Bathrooms really are for emergencies only. They make sure you know that by giving you two stalls, no toilet paper, no paper towels, sinks that shoot from six different directions, and a mirror that is covered in a film like substance.
4) Don't sit where seniors sit. Ever. Ever. Ever.
5) It's a good idea to become someone's freshman. This means that you have a junior or senior adopt you and make sure everyone knows you're assosiated with them.
For example:
Senior: Hi, I'm going to beat you up.
Freshman: Shit.
The Freshman's Junior: Hey dude, its cool. That's my freshman.
Senior: Oh, okay, wanna sit with us at lunch?
6) You should bring your lunch. That 20 minute line for nachos? Yeah. Not worth it. You will have people basically clawing out your eyes to get to those tortilla chips. You are much better off bringing a nice little sandwich.
7) If your meal smells like shit, looks like shit, and most likely tastes like shit, you shouldn't eat it. Just ask one of your smart friends who brought a lunch to loan you some crappy snack they don't want. Like pretzals.
Another note: Avoid food that moves.
8) Bring your ipod, your phone, or a book on the bus. That way, you are occupied. Or at least...you look occupied.
Note: If you actually like to talk to people on your bus, ignore this.
9) Freshmen stick together. Suddenly, people that you always hated will want to be friends with you. People that used to call you ugly in middle school, will suddenly be screaming your name in the hallways and trying to hug you. Why? Because freshmen stick together. If you two are the only freshmen in study hall...whaddya know! They're gonna sit next to you! And then friendship develops. I'm not so sure if this is good or bad yet.
10) Unless you're a cheerleader or you do a sport, you're not considered a human being. BUT THAT'S PERFECTLY OKAY. Humans are boring.
11) If you don't do a sport, and you want to be a human, become a music geek. If soccer's not your thing, do the school musical. Or at least do band or chorus. That way, you'll be a human. A slightly physcotic one, but hey. We try.
12) And most importantly...GETTING UP EARLY SUCKS. And it will always suck. Until the day you die, you will wish you took advantage of sleeping to the sweet, merciful hour of 7:30 AM.
