High school...

**edyzmedieval** · 05-20-2010, 22:49

...is over.

Damn this feels weird. After a huge period of examinations, studying over studying, going to bed at 3 am waking up at 6 to revise some more and countless bottles of Coke and chocolate boxes to keep me awake and alert, it's all over.

I feel like I have nothing to do as I wait for university. It's such an anti-climax that it just overwhelms you.

I'll be back with more impressions once I'll realise the full implications.

Use the time until uni wisely.
Something I failed to do

Can't agree more.

It was a weird feeling, thats for sure. But, it didn't really hit me until about a week or so after I would have gone back to school if I were younger.

I remember that limbo between high school and university. I buried my regrets from those high school years under constant partying in my first year at uni.

I should have worked for a year to stack some dough instead of chasing girls and booze whilst ignoring my studies. Whatever. It is what it is.

Poppycock, studies and money are for withering old men

I have been drunk and horny since 11th grade and regert nothing. Leave a path of destruction and tears or leave no path at all IMO

Lol we have a senior week to deal with that limbo haha

Just had my last exam at Uni for the year today. 3 years gone, 1 more to go.

Then I have to get a real job... damn.

Good job, now try and enjoy this summer more than any summer before, because when you get to college you never know if you have to take summer classes or a summer internship.

Honestly, don't spend time studying this summer over spending time with friends you might lose touch with when you leave for college. If you are really rusty in an area then it might be worth it to brush up but aside from thinking a bit about what field you are going to go into and your major, forget the studies for the three/four months you can.

If you go into your first year 1) refreshed and 2) having a little bit of an idea of what you are going to do then you will be able to take the generally much harder nature of college better.

Maybe it's different in other countries, but here, even our teachers said the 5th year of high/secondary school is the toughest until you take your final year exams at Uni/college.

From personal experience and what others say, this certainly seems to be true.

Congrats on your escape from high school! The period between hs and college is kind of boring, but make sure you make the most of your college years. They should be awesome! It's a completely different world from high school.
