Tips for highschool

[Bee Hoon]

Quoted for win.

Why, thank you

 

Oh, and six flags isn't a top priority thing, ergo, it isn't really a travesty when you skip a visit to spend time with someone you genuinely care about. Perhaps you would have more luck in your relationships if you recognized a real emotional attachment's value in relation to some roller coasters, and junk food that costs way too much.

This is on its third quote for win!

 

Guess where that relationship went as soon as the guy left for college and the girl still had a year of high school. You may value spending time with a person you've known for a few years who you might continue to see but later in life but likely not; but I would much rather spend time with friends I've known since kindergarten who've been with me through the best and worst times of my life.

And the reason I have these ideas is because I'm sick and tired of hearing all of my friends bitching up a storm as they leave each failed relationship only to have them fall in the exact same pattern.

You keep mentioning how people need to have some maturity to have a relationship, gues what, a lot of high school students dont have that maturity which results in all of the crap that I talk about.

A sample size of 1 is not indicative of anything:/ Long distance relationships are hard--there is no denying that.

I don't see why it has to be MY GIRL OR MY FRIENDS, but I sure as hell know that if my boyfriend always chose spending time with his friends over me, it would be sayonara. You'd have to be SPESHUL (with equally speshul privileges and an equal claim to his time) to spout saccharine sweet endearments at your other half

I'd hand out maturity and common sense on a silver platter if I could, but I can't. What a shame

Exactly. I suggested that people SHOULD have the maturity to handle a high school relationship successfully, I never said they had it. I'm working under the impression that the people I was spending my time explaining this to are intelligent and well-rounded enough to possess that maturity, because, as I stated in a previous post, those are the only people worth explaining this to. To me.

 

Besides that, jawa, to assume that most high school students are immature is kind of a smug generalisation made in ignorance. I say this simply because I highly doubt you know, personally know, the majority of high school students on this entire planet. If you do, well, congratulations, you can make that statement in fairness, if you have the reasoning to back it up, of course. If not, well, you simply cannot know that your claims are valid, which seems to be a perfectly decent reason to void the argument.

Two incredably random ones:

1. Hugs are free and over the counter

2. If you have a teacher that lets you decorate their room for "the holidays", remember that the reason they made a firecode was to see just how many different ways you can break it. There is no such thing as too many lights, too many trees and most importantly, fill every outlet available. Things like overhead projectors, TVs and computers are unnecessary compared to more lights.

Wrong thread. This looks like the start of the fanfiction you're writing about yourself.

 

Actually, what Doc's suggesting is not totally unrealistic. A lot of schools do encourage students to attempt and resolve issues on their own, so that administration doesn't have to get involved. It promotes a more active-minded philosophy towards your school, and stops the major altercations before they even begin. It never hurts to exercise a little diplomacy when you have the ability, or talent for negotiation; if anything, it can help you grow both intellectually and in character.

 

Edit:

At my old High School, I regularly stepped in and defended people physically, and I was in fact commended, not suspended.

 

Physically defending individuals can mean a whole host of things. It could mean an altercation, yes, but it could also mean simply stepping in and asserting your presence as a means of deferance to the antagoniser. Simply putting yourself between two individuals in the process of commencing physical violence constitutes physical defense. Assuming that he "smacked some bullies in their saggy ****s" isn't really fair to the point. Besides, not all attacks have to be harmful to your opponent, as I've said before in this thread. Most anyone trained in basic combat learns how to pacify an enemy with the least amount of force, and damage to both you and the opponent, as possible.

 

If people cannot or will not listen to reason, incapacitate them for a short time to let their tempers subside. Sometimes it's simply necessary, and if there are those around you that do not have the capability for such situations that you posess, then it is an act of kindness to offer your assistance, and in my experience, most acts of kindness are, in fact, commended.

This thread has escalated from mere innocent spam into a series of self-righteous and narcissistic posts containing nothing more than proof of the current state of retardation that is currently proliferating throughout Ahto like syphilis through the jock-straps and pom-poms of a hormonal group of high school kids.

 

Edit: Ughh I used "current" and "currently" practically back to back, see the retardation is spreading...

[True_Avery]

I heard nothing about Jock-straps or pom-poms. where did you get that from?

Fixed, and great post.

One time in High School, I feel asleep in class.

 

Do I get a medal, too?

Well, let me inject a little penicillin to get rid of some of the STD-ishness nature of the posts that were either trollish (if funny) or were composed of nothing but abject stupidity. The OP is looking for some tips, not a warehouse of spam. CommanderQ, if you'd like your post-count nerfed down to 0, feel free to keep spamming. Da_Man, don't contribute to spam-feasts, please. Thanks.

Teachers are there to help you, not just teach you. if you really need help in a class that you are failing, ask them for help. Teachers can help you out by staying after and helping you study, or they can hand out extra credit.

[CommanderQ]

True, teachers are definately there to help. There's no reason as to not trust them with your problems at school, that's practically why the took the job, to help out the students.

very true. all you need to do is ask.

[RC-1183]

actually alot of my teachers WONT give you extra credit they say if you didnt do good on the paper then sometimes SOMETIMES they will let you correct it most of the time tho they will say "o well you didnt study" or you didnt try or soething like that or "do better on your next paper"

[Arcesious]

Don't let education get in the way of your education.

[RC-1183]

what the hell is that supposed to mean?

[Darth InSidious]

what the hell is that supposed to mean?

 

Well to my inexpert eyes it looks like a trite witticism, full of sound and sophistry, signifying nothing...

[RC-1183]

ok well hey i got a question anybody out there that could help me??

[Mav]

ok well hey i got a question anybody out there that could help me??

I think you would get more help if you ask the question...

[RC-1183]

well you see i have a bit of..... girl trouble

[Q]

In my experience they've always been more of a PITA than they're worth.

[RC-1183]

PITA??

[Q]

Pain In The Ass. A very subjective opinion, I know, but it's kept me sane (well, pretty much) so far.

[Titanius Anglesmith]

Don't let education get in the way of your education.

It's "Don't let schooling get in the way of your education."

[RC-1183]

@Schmorgy i still dont get what its supposed to mean/imply

@Qliveur i dont its just im not sure but well we went out then we broke up but now i still love her but shes not sure, she wants to be single for a bit... i dont know what to do

[Q]

Ah, the stigma of youth.

 

The answer is simple: find someone else to occupy your thoughts. Don't let her keep you on a string. If she doesn't love you, then she doesn't deserve to be loved by you. If you want her back that badly, then ignore her. They can't stand to be ignored. As long as you let her know that you still want her, she wins. Just ignore her.
