well since i'm homeschooled this year i guess i'm done with school whenever i get done. the 8th grade class at my old school gets out the 23rd i think.
I have SAT's monday. i think after i'm done with those i'll just stop doing schoolwork.

tiny? compared to my old school, 64's alot. there's only about 30 people per class there.

I'm not in eighth grade, but I don't want to say my grade. I'm sort of young! LoL!

But anyhoo, I want to be a Candystriper in high school

I want to be an OB GYN when I grow uo so I figure a candystriper is a good start? Wouldn't you think?

We have 47 in my graduating class. But I believe that there will only be about 42 or so of us walking up on stage to get our diploma because some people didn't pass all of the stupid graduation exam. Why should some test decide how much they've learned over the last 13 years? Maybe this would be better suited to the venting thread...

Okay, so it's not that small

Lots bigger than my middle school--we had about 60 something students in total!

eh don't worry about it. I'm a freshman in high school this year - we get out on the 18th i believe. Only 10 more school days!! They are piling on the work so much it isn't even funny! 4 more "class" days, then three days where we review for FINALS (aaaah!!!) and then we get off next friday, then monday, tuesday, wednesday are our finals.

Seriously though little 8th grade dudes, don't worry. Besides the work being 10 x harder, more stress, more responibility, activities taking up way more of your time, getting up earlier, acne, the school usually being at least twice as large, IT IS WAAAY BETTER THAN MIDDLE SCHOOL, TRUST ME. :P

Middle School/Junior high sucked so majorly - worst 3 years of my life. But this whole year I have been loving high school.

People are just more mature, there is more available to do and to explore. People are more excepting of others and nicer. It is virtually impossible to not fit in - you would have to try HARD not to fit in with at least SOME group. Teachers are better too (usually). Courses actually challenging.

Its all good.

***Khamûl*** · 06-03-2003, 10:20 PM

Well, I have already graduated and am officially out of high school now. Back to being a freshman. *sigh*

Starr Polish · 06-03-2003, 11:18 PM

Eh, but I've heard being a college freshmen is nothing like being a high school freshmen. No hazing, anyway, unless you plan on joining a fraternity (bleh...).

AHHH! I'm a senior. Hoo-ah. This means I'll actually have to start doing stuff, like applying to colleges and scholarship things.

Iboen · 06-04-2003, 08:35 AM

aaawwwwwww. you poor little thingas. well there's no need to worry. High school is v. v. v. v. v. boring. lots of homework, yes but you get quite a bit freedom if you work hard. I'm english and in year 8 so i think i would be in, erm, 10th grade. right? sooooooooo don't worry peeps

What? There's no real hazing as a high school freshmen you mean, right? At least in my school there isn't. Most upperclassmen'll hate you but not do anything.

I know I will always keep a place for you in my heart. Even though the shadows fall and the darkness enters you will always be with me. I remember one thing about you. Your eyes. I used to look in them like pools of blue water. I could stare at them forever like the dark blue sky on a cloudy night. As I sit here still watching the stars I think of you, but the one thing I remember is your eyes.
