[sup3rgirl7]

I NOOOOO
ME TOO.... lets make a freshman group lol

hehe maybe we should lol

[mike1]

eh im entering hs.. but as long as u kno upper classmen.. your allright

[xxviet727babixx]

freshman year was great, i had lots of fun n i made even more... i didn't even seem like a freshman 2 anyone... da way i dressed n acted. yeahh well it's not as bad as ppl may say... depends where u go n stuff. sometimes the teachers r straight up asses.

[anunknownuser]

It wasn't bad, not bad at all. Accually, it was pretty fun, new girls, new place, a new experience.

[mouse_3k]

jeez, highschool is not bad...dont we already have like a billion topics bout this? trust me, hs isnt tht bad

[Nosoldat4u]

Don't sweat it. High School is not as bad as you may think. I mean look at how many people have gone through it before you. When I went into high school as a freshman I was scared too, but I did have some friends that I knew so it was a little better. Don't worry about it though, you can make friends fast and sometimes easy, since you'll be around lots of people that are freshman too there is bound to be people that are in the same boat as you and need friends. Just let things go naturally and don't be stupid or a punk to other people. High school only sets you up for your LIFE, not how many friends you will have. Lots of people don't see there friends when they get out of school due to there jobs or college and what not. You'll only live through high school ONCE, so make it a good memory.

[DrEaMgUy2K1]

dont stress it high school is like heaven ^_^ , well some are atleast. no more dress code , u dont gotta eat cafeteria food, people there are more haWt, and ur gonna make tons of new friends quit stressin it . only crappy part about hs is whats crappy about others......homework test and projects. :-p

[mystical]

Freshmen year in HS is awesome its soo much different from ur Elementary and Middle schools. You all freak out b/c its high school but yeah its really layed back. Just dont act like a big shot nd stuff or else your gonna get hated on. Just act normal and everything will be fine. If you get lost, dont be afraid to ask for directions most other kids are happy to help you.

[silver-rain]

eh- don't worry about high school. its not that bad- and some teachers go easy on you because you're a freshman and don't know anything yet. and you'll make new friends, so don't worry!

[Just_Dream]

Hm.. well I thought Middle school would be like LIzzi McGuire, except not that show lol. But no, it's not really that scary. Because ALOT of shows have all that drama about high school and popularity. For me, IMO, I don't even KNOW who the popular group is. IMO, who cares? Unless people are power hungry lol. Anyways just go witht he flow and be nice to people so u can make new friends That's what I do. And personally, I'm a pretty wierd person so for people to even like me as a friend is amazing lol.

First day was the worst, I didn't know where anything was. Just ask a teacher or an upperclassman and you'll be fine.

eh- don't worry about high school. its not that bad- and some teachers go easy on you because you're a freshman and don't know anything yet. and you'll make new friends, so don't worry!

My teachers didn't give us latenesses for the first week or so, because they knew it's hard to find the classes. Have fun, high school is not bad.

[dark.elf]

Crap I'am going to high school nowin about 2 weeks @#$!@#!@

[*Kathleen*]

Be VERY AFRAID! My first day of high school, a bunch of juniors took me into the bathroom and gave me a swirlie. I will never be able to live that down.




















































Just kidding. No, seriously, that's what I envisioned my first day of high school to be. I was pissing my pants the day before. Don't worry, when I got there, I realized how freaking easy high school is. It is NOTHING like how Hollywood portrays it. Just remember that.

[dark.elf]

Sadly thats not the bad part the bad part is that I have been homschool'd for about to years and for to years i did noting for real but learn about computers i can catch up ast in every at school but math will clam my soul


And know one will swirl me lol *runs and hide's in cave*

[krazyxp]

hs is as good and as bad as you make it to be. i've had some good experiences& some awesome experiences& some horrifying experiences in high school, but the thing is, just try to make the best out of the situation as you can. charge in there& dont be afraid to be yourself. make hs a wonderful experience, all 4 years of it. :D

[sweetdreamsx3]

im an up coming freshie and im scared to death about the first day    of school how was high school you?

Lol, for my fish year, everybody thought I was a junior (and now I am) because of my height. I'm 5'7.5". :D Lol, it's not that bad. I don't know about your schools, but at Westside High, it's a senior tradition to spray paint on the walls and toilet paper the whole school. So on the first day of school, right when you walk in, the sayings would be like "Go back to middle school" And then they draw a picture of a fish. All in all, neither of my short friends were picked on. Don't worry too much about it. I'm sure there are lots of nice people that would help you out, so don't sweat it. :D Oh yeah, so there goes the bad parts.

And the good parts...errmm.... Make more friends, get the chance to take college courses, hot guys :D OooOohwhee! No more yuckie cafeteria food, Lines aren't that long (for lunch) and plenty more. ^^ Yeaps.

[slurp]

highschool is pretty laid back and much more free than junior high school, once you get used to it youd be enjoying highschool, just act yourself

[Spirited Away]

I wouldn't say that the High School years were the best of my life, but I did have a fun time growing up, making new friends, and learning skills that I still consider important.

If you're worry about academics, then trust me when I tell you: "don't slack off in your freshman year", because those grades will haunt you when senior year rolls along and you have to fill out those college aps and send in transcripts.

If you're worry about socializing, you won't die from not being in the 'popular' groups. You just have to keep your eyes/mind open (figuratively speaking) for prospective friends.

[miszkristinexox]

im a freshman too! im kinda scared. pft stupid seniors were trying to scare us at orientation, they think we are like 5 or something. what idiots

[Ihate]

im an up coming freshie and im scared to death about the first day of school how was high school you?

It's all about how you deal with it, little tip tho. Don't mess up your grades over friends/opposite sex. You don't wanna end up with a crappy job.

[Spirited Away]

im a freshman too! im kinda scared. pft stupid seniors were trying to scare us at orientation, they think we are like 5 or something. what idiots

This is the best part of making fun of Fishes, you guys take it so SERIOUSLY. It's all in the fun of senioritis. One day, it's going to be you who's scaring the freshmans.

[abercrombiekid]

high school is fun. real fun and stressful. just dont get punkd on freshmen friday

[mouse_3k]

im an up coming freshie and im scared to death about the first day    of school how was high school you?

I am now a soph. my freshmen yr was alright. ppl thought I was a junior/senior cause i was like 5'6, 5'7. A junior liked me (Still does) and I found the love of my life (still w. him but we didnt meet at skool so i guess tht dont count)

its not tht bad

[heyyfrankie]

i will be a fish in 1 day! and i am not scared at all. my sister is a senior and everyone likes her so i already know alot of people. i am not popular or anything like that but i don't worry. everything will be cool. the hardest part will be the first day. after that, it is all gravy. and p.s.---->>-->>->all of seniors are stupid. no offense to current seniors.

[cutielilsuga]

yes it is really bad haha
nah high school is what makes you the person you are later in life

[PinoyOtaku]

"There is nothing to fear but fear itself."

It's really not all that scary but of course fear is usually natural for incoming freshman. Just stay cool and don't do anything embarassing that might follow your image for the next four years. The best of luck to all the incoming HSers.

[Captin_Crunch]

its not bad imma freshmen too its jus like jr.high kinnda.i started school last week.

[dani41790]

i jus started as a freshie a few days ago and at first it was a little scary but it realli isnt as bad as pplz sae it is

[boysbr3akhearts]

I think the more you act intimitated, the more the upperclassmen will pick on you. And don't act snobby. The most irritating thing ever is when lowerclassmen act like they own the school. Rawr.

[[i]LLMATiC]

high school aint that bad.. jus dont act like a lil weiner and evrything will b cool and you should get to knoe some people at registration as a freshman and stuff.. well thats wut they do at my school

[Luster Soldier]

It really isn't as bad as you think (at least the high school I go to is cool). Just don't do anything stupid and you'll be fine

[F1R3B4T]

you going to hs?? ouch.
watch your back. there are animals in there.
90% of the student body lives by this word: cannibalism.
ur gonna get eaten alive.












ehh btw hope u kno im jus kidding. sarcasm.
me, im goin to hs in september...
noe wat im sayin?

[jr0h]

im gona be a freshmen too and im not worried at all. maybe its just the school or the city im in.. but seriously im excited, you should be too. dont worry bout those silly negative things just think you'll actually be serious wid ur education and you'll feel proud of yourself for it.

[angel-roh]

x i was reallie scared too at first cause i thought i will end up having friends who does drugs like on that tv when they tell u to do drugs. i was scared about that and i was scared that i wont make any friends in the first day of school, but i prayed that God helped me meet a lot of ppls at the first day of school. I love my God so much. My heavenly father is so awesome -tears- anyways yeah i think mostly ppls were all scared about it. my sister is gona be a freshman this year... and she jus said she's excited.....wow she's not even worrying about it lols. my sister, jr0h who is above me doesnt care...interesting...i bet she will get that nervous rack before school starts lols i jus know
.
.
.
x

[simplyxparadise]

i hope high school isnt that hard for me lols

[laur3nw]

high school isnt as bad as you think it is..if you have your friends with you, you'll be ok. im sure you have at least one friend going to the same school as you ;)
for my first day of high school, i actually wasnt scared..i was more excited

[Glamourouz]

Your highschool years are the best years of your life....I'm a senior now and it seems like yesterday I was a freshmen....it goes by so fast so just stay out of trouble, have fun, get involved, go to parties, make new friends and just enjoy it because you'll miss it later....the only people who think highschool is bad are the people who didn't get out there; basically loners, so don't be a loner.....

[MeanBastard]

In our school they never pick on the Freshmans. But for you, you might get your ass kicked. I don't know. Be scared. Be afraid. Carry a weapon.

[ethixfantazia]

First day of school wasnt that bad... I just didn't know anyone.. hehe! i still know very few ppl!! It's been like a week and 3 days now

[Crich323]

I thought freshman year was easy and simple except for the occasional "stupid freshman" but that usually wasn't directed to me.

[magnificentmike]

You have nothing at all to worry about. There are slightly different things from middle school, but they're a lot alike. Just don't mind the stupid and annoying people, mind your own business, and you should be fine.

As for me. My freshman year is ending and I've overall disliked it. I've lost a lot of friends, and I've made friends. It's the ones that are your true friends that count for your support and for you to support them. *Also, choose your friends wisely.

[much2muse]

nah, theres no reason to be nervous. you'll be alright. you'll get cut some slack for a little bit by the teachers until you get a hang of things. we were at my school anyway..

[Gypsy Eyes]

Mine isn't, but my school is backwards. The best parties are hosted by the players (the theater kids) and everyone makes fun of the cheerleaders.

It's really not bad once you get used to it.

[timeflies51]

Whatever they tell you about high school in middle school... Don't believe it. In my opinion, they make it sound so much harder than it really is. And they actually treat you like you're in high school. In middle school, they treat you like little kids... There's so much more freedom, but it's not like they totally abandon you. And make friends with the upperclassmen, don't be afraid of them! They might tease you about being a freshman, but seriously, there are some awesome people that you'll meet.

In other words, high school basically kicks middle school's ass.

[*My Cinderella.*]

Eh, I'm not that scared. For me, I think I might just avoid eye contact.

[goodcharlotte]

High School is so much better than Middle School. Freshman year has been the best so far.

[amyx312]

lol i know i`ll be going to highschool 2 im kinda scared 2 but agen i noe alot of people that goes to my school and my bro just graduted frm the school im going 2 so he might show me around ;P

[oXMuhNirvanaXo]

naw its not that bad.

[--x who0ps]

High School is the same as Middle School to me.
I mean, it isn't, but I didn't really feel a drastic change.
But I must be honest, High School has a lot more homework than Middle School.
It's like in Middle School, you're a proud that you slept at 2 AM.
In High School, you're grateful that you get to sleep at 2.
But, that's just our High School. Not sure if the same applies to you o_o
High School is definately better than Middle School though because you get A LOT more freedom.
&Lots more friends too. It's fun. Don't worry about it. ;)

[nevernothere]

You kids reallllly have nothing to worry about. I guess it wasn't as difficult for me bc I was like 5'10" and I was in a few upper-level classes.

Our biggest gripes as upperclassmen about freshmen:
Don't carry around a giant backpack... it screams, "FRESHMAN"
Don't stand in the middle of the halls and hug your friends.
Don't act cocky around upperclassmen.

[jenniez618]

ahh to me, when i was freshman, i was really scared, but then it was great, it's similar to middle school, except there's more homework and you get more stressout about work and all that stuff, but other than that it was pretty good, don't worry, it isn't as bad as you think :).

[iminlovewithTomD...]

i'm going into 8th grade next year...

but i wanna be going to high school... i mean... new/more people/guys... less rules, i'd get to be in the same school as my brother... also!! the highschool that i'm going to has waaaaaaay more days off than the school that i go to now... ugh, i hated coming home to my brother on the computer... all those fun things... the only thing i'm not looking forward to... the lockers... at my school they're like way bigger than the ones at the highschool... ugh.

[bballchick1]

Omigosh, I just finished my freshman year and I absolutely loved it!!

I was soo scared last summer before going for my first year of high school, but, it turned out to be so much better than I expected.

You meet so many awesome people, and I find it's better than elementary and middle school.

Just get involved and you'll love it! Good luck!

[KUBANO]

highschool is the shit best time youll ever have if you can remember it

[hirador]

hah, I remember my first day so clearly. It's not that bad, seriously. It's different from middle school, but that doesn't mean it has to be a bad experience. Some people have a hard time adjusting, and other people just slide right in and find their place. I had a really hard time my first semester, but after that, it was smooth sailing.

[RCcola]

high school is super overrated. once you figure out where you fit in its smooth sailing from there. dont sweat it.

[monxcheri]

it`s not bad.. not bad at all. i mean, unless you get into a fight with an influencial person, then you`d be fine. be yourself, find friends, stay friends with your old friends, get good grades && have fun!

[parallel]

My freshmen year sucked.

[__bestkeptsecret]

I'm starting my Junior year of high school in September and so far, I loved high school. Sure, they were the usual ups and downs, but for the most part, it's been fun.

I was scared my first day, freshman year, but then everything just fell into place, I guess.

[*xcaitlinx*]

i think that people claim that high school ... especially freshman year.. is bad because they want to scare you. i had the same mindset going into high school last year, but it was the complete opposite! high school is a lot more fun than middle school because teachers treat you like adults. you have more freedom and the upperclassmen aren't mean as long as you don't start trouble.

[Blank-OuT]

I'm gonna be a senior this coming September, and I still remember my first day of freshman year lol. I was pretty nervous in meeting some people, and I didn't have anyone in my homeroom that I knew. For the first few months I stuck with some of my friends from elementary and eventually I made a bunch of friends.

But highschool isn't bad.. only if you make it out to be. It'll be the fastest 4 years of your life, that's for sure. I feel like I just started highschool, but I'm a senior already.

You'll def meet a lot of people, because you'll have different people in all your classes.. so it's pretty exciting to see who's gonna be in your class lol. Once you make friends who you're comfortable with, everything'll be alright.

[rorhinna]

high school rocks, Ima jr.
but... freshman year.. eh
it's not the best.. you're like
the underdawg
there's nothing to be worried
about though

[*yrrnotelekktric*]

Haha, it really depends. You just have to live through it yourself.

[shampoo192]

Im gonna be a freshman this year too, but it isn't gonna be much of a change for me cuz im going to Harker High and ive been to Harker since kindergarten :)

[Smoogrish]

im an up coming freshie and im scared to death about the first day of school how was high school you?

Haha, I'm a freshie this year. Heck, we have Freshman Hell Week. What more could anyone want?

[angelrevelation]

i went to a junior high, so i'm going into 10th grade, which is entering high school for us. i'm kinda worried it's going to be like 'Mean Girls', with the catty girls and horny guys... ehh. i'm happy i might get to see some old (older) friends though.

people are always saying how the underclassmen are so annoying. i dont want to be annoying it definitely wouldn't be intentional... my brother said nobody uses their lockers because it's a big hassle. but wouldn't your back hurt from lugging your backpack around all day, across a big campus?

Don't carry around a giant backpack... it screams, "FRESHMAN"
Don't stand in the middle of the halls and hug your friends.

i'm happy about the no hugging thing. it's so annoying, especially when they dont MOVE out of your way even when you ask them. but the backpack thing... how are you supposed to carry all your stuff then? i don't think i could live without my school supplies

[Looow]

how are you supposed to carry all your stuff then? i don't think i could live without my school supplies

there's a thing called locker. && you couldn't LIVE without them ? hahaha

[MetalChick77]

high school is the best.

[lllUrban_PrePlll]

alright... incoming freshman here. does any one have advise, warnings, ect. that would help me not to turn into a complete loser the first day?? yup as you can see im kinda scared but excited too.

[datass]

the first day of highschool was pretty scary as well as awesome.

[angelrevelation]

there's a thing called locker. && you couldn't LIVE without them ? hahaha

well my brother said that nobody uses their lockers... maybe because they dont trust their locker partners.

[mznikki]

i never used my locker haha butt high school isn't as badd as they say it is middle school is way worse its so akward lol i just graduated and i'm gonna be a college freshman and i know i'm sooo gonna miss high school its way easier haha =D

[*salcha4u*]

YES IT IS, IT'S HORRIBLE

Well, it only sucked cuz I was new in the district and everyone else already knew each other.

[*RiC3xBoy*]

No, especially when everyone else already thinks that you are a junior.

[pinacoolada]

Ah. I'm freshmeat too. =/

[Jeng]

freshman year, hmm nothing happened, oh wait fights in the hallways that i ALWAYS missed and asked everyone what happened, uhm,i like 9th grade kinda.but we were still in junior high, junior high 7-9.so we owned the place yo

[DarkImpressions]

Well on the first day of high school for me i wasnt that scared because i already knew people there becuase they went to my middle school

[jenniez618]

My freshman year was a BLAST! It was really good because the people were really nice and all that, but the seniors got really on my nerves, they literally were like "Hey..Look at the frosh, aren't they so small & cute?"..LOL..but other than that it went really good. Nothing really major happened.

[*mona lisa*]

It wasn't so bad for me. My grades weren't bad and I made tons of friends. Although, I was great at procrastinating and doing little work...

It depends on several things: your school, your peers, the upperclassmen, and yourself. Just observe your surroundings and figure out whom to stay away from and whom to be friendly towards. :)

[oXMuhNirvanaXo]

My first year in High School was the shit. I am going to miss it so much.. </3 =-(

[mahokaida]

High school is what you make it. I didn't do anything in freshman year except homework. Now that I'm a junior I'm more involved and meeting new people - it's become so much better .
