3rd day of Real High School!!!!

Heh. I don't know why people are all like, "Oh you better try hard! Oh, you better not screw some girls!" What the heck, guys? Stop advising PI not to have a life. If he's anywhere near as smart as he claims he is, he won't even need to put an effort into classes to graduate with honours, awards, and scholarships. I didn't put any bit of effort into high school at all to get all those awards and scholarships I got, but heeeeeey; guess what? I got them.

SFTS is right. Just enjoy your high school life. And don't let those whild, drunk-on-hormone girls manipulate you like poor Subotan was complaining about. It isn't really too much of a difficulty to be the manipulator, you know? But maybe it is for the average guy, I don't know. I'm a pretty boy, see? I hope you are, too.

Well, s

Entire word subo, not just part of it.

SFTS is correct. Everyone thinks high school directs your life, but it doesnt. Not entirely sure how america's education works, but you can just upgrade here...

Whats that? Didnt get the OP/whatever it is in your area to get into medicine? Its ok, go into another course, get a good enough GPA and then upgrade to Medicine. I failed high school.

Not joking, I physically did not pass my final year. But with any luck, I should be attending uni in a few weeks. If not? Well I'm already well down the path of a respected and needed field.

I have to echo SFTS and Megas' sentiment. Don't let the years slip by under because you were working to hard to have a social life. Unless you're a Japanese businessman or intend to become one. If you work hard you should also party hard, do stupid things, and let a few girls manipulate you (what they don't know can't hurt em' right?). The hard work comes later, that's being a good husband, a good father, and Can support that structure, but I would have regretted it dearly had I not taken the time to be a stupid teenager from time to time.

while high school may not be the deciding factor for your life, it certainly plays a big part.

Well, much of it depends on how wealthy PI's parents are. Do I recollect PI said his father was a doctor? If so, then perhaps PI can have his fun, to a point. But seriously, what is wrong with waiting until the Uni to party?

uh...actually my dad's a Major int he Marines......don't know where you got doctor from :D

anyway, yeah, most of the people there aren't appealing to me, as is expected, but I found at least 3 other girls to ask out. statistically, one should say yes, right?

classes are pretty easy. and aside from english, I love all my teachers, which is always good.

not sure if I said what English I'm taking; it's English 3. about half the class just gaffs off, and my half does the tiny workload and then talks. one of the girls is in this class. only thing that might screw it up is that shes totaly into jesus. i mean there's nothing wrong with that by itself, but if she's anti-semetic like many very religious catholics are, i'm screwed. and not the good way.

hmmm.......what else? just generaly I'm pretty happy. no two of my classes are more than maybe 2 minutes away, with hallway traffic. locker is centrally located, giving me enough time to quickly switch my stuff before lunch for the second half of my day. oh my my homeroom class (which is at like 10:15-10:45 for some reason) we literally can do anything we want, so I just use that time to get some sleep.

so yeah, I think I can survive until the end of the year when we move.

unrelated: one of my really good friends is goign to Westpoint in July! so excited for him; he's only like 16 1/2.

no

English is cool. Are you doing Lit or Lang?

And Congrats for your friend.

Sure. But it's so ridiculously easy to get amazing grades in high school that you shouldn't be needing to worry about it. Unless you're not exactly a smart fellow, I guess, in which case you have my pity.

*snickers again and gives a fishy stare*

That depends what school you go to, and what courses you take, my young padawan. My school (WFHS) has a Bronze Medal from the US News and World Report nationwide HS rankings. UNaWR is the top-ranking authority on the matter of evaluating secondary and post-secondary institutions. On top of that, I took all the AP, Honours, and Dual-Enrolment I could. Not easy at all, my high school years were. Simply because you went to provincial, back-of-the-country (or one in de hood, as you say) Canuck school does not mean everyone else did, Meth

Whatever life may be, death and taxes will always be a part of it. And if that is not enough, there is always a way to make one's own life more complicated. Oh yes.

I guess the labour/brain drain here lowers the standards. In my eyes, that makes me a lucky bastard.
