<p>I can't wait until college. This year I'm in 6 AP classes. A lot of my friends say I'm crazy, but one of my favorite sayings is, "work now, play later". I am choosing to work hard now. Since most of my friends classes are regular we don't have a lot of classes together. I want to talk about my test in AP econ and they want to tell me how I wouldn't have to worry about a test if I would have taken regular. I want to discuss college essays and their response is you've got a while November is far from now. We used to have so much in common, but I feel like we have drifted so far since last yr. When I want to share news with them I used to not hesitate; now I do. UGH!! I'm just so frustrated. Anyone else in a similar situation or can anyone else relate?</p>
<p>Nah, all my friends are in AP with me, I only have 2 non-AP/honors friends, lol. You must surround yourself with the best! Why don’t you make friends in your AP classes? And in a way, it’s kind of a bad thing. It’s an unspoken thing that although we support each other, there’s a tiny bit of resentment there when one does a lot better than another on a test or paper. And just wanted to say, that’s what you have all of us on CC for! To talk nerdy with, lol.</p>
<p>Yep I love CC. Yeah the people in my AP classes are cool. I am getting to know them a little better since my teacher this year has like a circle session where we talk about stress n college. So hopefull I’ll fing someone if not there’s always colleg :D</p>
<p>I’m looking forward to making real friends. </p>
<p>Going to a small school has it’s disadvantages.</p>
<p>I’ve been with the same people since Pre-School, and it’s really suffocating by this point, because seeing the same faces for 13+ years straight and going through childhood and puberty with these people has irreparably damaged my perception of all of them. </p>
<p>I just want to get away from these people and meet someone new. Preferably someone that isn’t the typical Republican Conservative Christian with discriminatory tendencies that defines 99% of my area’s population.</p>
<p>At this point, no one is really good friends with anyone else. </p>
<p>I just tolerate the people that have been my “friends” for all these years. </p>
<p>We have nothing in common anymore.</p>
<p>I feel the same way. Its like we’ve drifted apart so much. I’ve heard how people say in high school you fing out your real friends, but I always thought me and my friends were the exceptions. Guess we’re not. :(</p>
<p>yeah, i go to a small school and it sucks! not gonna lie, i’m so sick of all these people!</p>
<p>Haha I’m all for new friends in college.</p>
<p>I hate the immaturity.</p>
<p>Yeah I really cant wait. I realized how different the people at my school are from other people from other schools when I went to a summer program out of state. A lot of people at my school are really, well, thrifty (if thats the right word) and it gets ridiculous, I always hear people saying, you owe me 10 cents, etc. People here are not very WILLING, not very enthusiastic about school events.</p>
<p>I’m going to miss all my friends, some of whom I’ve been with all my life. But college is definitely the place to make some new friends, so many different people</p>
<p>Aww, graduation day is gonna be so sad. I’ve known some kids since the second grade, and it’ll be tough going our separate ways. You can’t get that kind of history in college.</p>
<p>But I think it’s still going to be fun starting over.</p>
<p>I can’t wait until college. So many chances to meet so many new people and living independently.
I really don’t like the people in my high school.</p>
<p>small schools are suffocating. especially if the small school is a bubble world of wealth.</p>
<p>college is gonna be funnnn (: or i’m gonna make it fun.</p>
<p>I think that college would enable me to have a new start in terms of being in a new place with new people. Don’t get me wrong though, I’m probably going to cry on graduation day haha</p>
<p>I am. College lets you be you, not what people have pegged you to be for the past 4+ years. You can meet others and socialize without past judgements, rumors, and stories being stapled to your forehead. It’s a breath of fresh air. While seeing the same faces ever since middle school (my situation) is comforting, it gets boring fast. Plus, it’s always fun to meet new people.</p>
<p>Yeah def have known most of my HS class since kindergarden. It’s a little annoying. I love my friends, but other than that, I’d like to make some new ones! To see what friendships last me through college into the real world via facebook (ha).</p>
<p>Of course.</p>
<p>I totally agree with the OP. Last year and especially this year I feel such a disconnection with everyone i used to chill with. All my friends remember the old me and are asking me if I’m depressed or something and I tell them no… I’m just really motivated.</p>
