<p>Anyone else not having that great of a senior year? I moved here in 11th grade, then had a huge falling out with the BFF i met..so I have friends now, but none I'm really close to..and I look around and there's all these people soaking up senior memories with people they're been friends with since 2nd grade. I've never been connected like that..so senior year is just kind of lonely.
It's not too bad. Like I said, I do have friends, I'm on SGA, I plan on going in a group to HC. But sometimes I feel like I'm not as much a part of my HS as everyeone else. Anybody else feel that way?
Is it senioritis? Or is it just me?
Lol, sorry for the rant. I guess I'm just feeling down today.</p>
<p>So far senior year is nothing like I imagined it would be.</p>
<p>While I am trying to get out a lot more often and do a lot of fun things (which I'm successful at), I find all of my friends boring and I just want to go to college already.</p>
<p>Well, senior year is not as great as I have thought it would be. It's not bad, but it's not that great. </p>
<p>When I was a freshman, I thought about the great stuff about senior year. Taking classes I want to take, waiting to go to college, or just being a senior. But right now, none of the classes I am taking interest me because of schedule conflicts and other issues. I have a not-so-good class ranking that I want in improve (if I actually can now). The clubs I am in I do not enjoy. And then there are the college app and last minute SAT/ACT things I need to take care of. As for friends, a majority of them graduated last year and are at different parts of the country. I do have friends in my grades, but it's just... </p>
<p>But as I said, senior year is not bad, it's just not what a senior year should be like.</p>
<p>just get out and make yourself busy...go to some parties, play a sport, go to the local college football games, get a boyfriend. so far my senior year has been a lot of fun because ive been go go go</p>
<p>I feel exactly the same way. A bunch of my friends graduated last year and I never see them. Ive always been quiet in schoool, and then out of school i was always really loud and stuff. My one really close friend just started dating someone and i dont do stuff with them as much anymore, so my social life has really just been blah. I have friends, but none of them really take AP classes so I never see them in school, and i barely talk to them anymore. I think itll get better once the swim season starts because then i will see my friends more, but even swimming wont be the same because some of the people i was really close to on the team graduated last year. But ill see how it once i start swimming again.</p>
<p>you're so not alone..my friends and i keep praying its a nightmare and tomorrow we'll wake up and it'll be may and we'll be on the lawn graduating. </p>
<p>i guess, its good that we've got work to keep us busy..i definitely haven't had memories with my best friend since 2nd grade, since i moved in the middle of high school too. but i don't mind too much. as long as i don't feel too left out. </p>
<p>thank goodness this year is going by quickly. i would've died if it hadn't.</p>
<p>i'm trying our for a big play in winter. i was in a diff. play with the same company last year. being involved in a play always gives me a huge feeling of belonging. but right now it's so ugggghh...esp. now with halloween and HC coming up..i feel like the grinch or something...it's like everyone else is having fun??</p>
<p>I always feel like the Grinch.</p>
<p>i'm super stressed and not enjoying myself. ):</p>
<p>I'm actually humongously lax compared to what I thought... I already know the material in all of my classes so all I'm basically doing this year is research at the NIH and taking pointless quizzes, which in itself isn't stressful at all. College apps, on the other hand...</p>
<p>OP: same here. I moved to a new HS in 11th grade, and i know what u feel. Most of my best friends are away at colleges or some other schools...I hope senior year ends quickly!!!!</p>
<p>My senior year is awful. i have more work to do than any of my other 3 years of high school, and i'm only taking 2 APs.</p>
<p>My senior years were awesome. Particularly my first one.</p>
<p>My boyfriend is a senior now and seems ready to be done. I was kinda the opposite - I was just getting started my senior year. But I guess my senior years were pretty different from everyone elses. I was only taking a couple academic classes (vs. four music classes) and my college apps process lasted all of 20 minutes.</p>
<p>I hate senior year. Too stressful. Before if i didn't do an assignment i lost 10 points in a class. Now it's like i'm not going to get into college and be poor for the rest of my life. Calc BC and AP bio aren't helping either.</p>
<p>wildchartermage, thank you, and PM me one of these days!!! ;)
It might be looking up. I'm sort of in the process of getting a BF. I asked the guy I like to HC and he said sure, and we hang out at lunch and stuff. So I feel more connected overall than before. But, hey, nothing's ever going to be perfect.</p>
<p>But, I like this thread. Let's keep it up!! It might make other bummed-out seniors feel better to know that they aren't alone.</p>
<p>AND:</p>
<p>Academically, it seems like everybody else has it SO MUCH EASIER. I hear everyone talking about how yesterday (school week day) they went shopping, to the beach, etc etc and got on myspace for awhile and watched gossip girl and etc etc and then went to work and sports practice on top of it. I get home at 4, do my calc homework and psych homework, eat, exercise for like 30 minutes, watch ONE tv show (law and order) and finish the rest of my HW and by then it's already about midnight. Homework takes up a HUGE amount of my time and I only have 2 AP classes. and the people mentioned above who have gobs of spare time take 4-5 AP classes and get straight A's. And they always look perfect. how do they do it??????</p>
