high school isnt that bad

there will always be people that dont like you, and people that judge you, but the chances are youll make some really good friends and have alot of fun. Don't be afraid to try new things(that doesnt mean drugs)and just be yourself, because if you act like someone ytour not itll be fun for a while but in the long run you'll find yourself unhappy, just let loose, and dont worry about the work loud gr 9 and 10 are absolute jokes. Just dont worry it'll be awsome

Well it depends on a lot of things. What kind of people do you plan on getting involved with, who are your friends, how academic (what classes you plan on taking)are you? etc etc

I've never had to deal with any drama really thus far, but the preppy, cheerleader girls, wheeeew I see them being absolute bitches to each other ALL the time. Rumors, stealing boyfriends, even physical fights.

Also, because of the academic stress I've gone through, High School years have become the worst years of my life. The work load increases drastically---it's your choice whether you want to focus that much time on it. Being the people-pleasing, perfectionistic person I am, I decided to take a bunch of AP classes---and now I'm regretting it..

Tremor agony auntI wouldn't worry about it too much.

Things are rarely the way they are in the movies, highschool included. Most people are actually pretty decent, at least in my experience. There will always be the minority who assholes, but they are a minority.

Just go in, be confident and be friendly. Don't pretend you're anyone other than yourself. You'll probably find it's nowhere near as bad as you think, and you'll likely make a lot of new friends.

If you're really fretting, try giving yourself a little ego boost. Buy a new outfit, or do your nails or something. Make yourself feel good, and don't worry about anyone else.

Think positive and don't stress yourself out.

Good luck!

Dont be nervous!

Year 8, was the best year of my life.

Then my mum made me change schools, and 2 years later my life is GAY!

High school is nothing like the movies.

You'll have a blast, seriously.

It'll be awesome!
