<p>Honestly, I do. I had a great time in high school, and I miss my friends and the sports I played. However, I think I have had a better time in college than I could have ever had in high school, but high school was still a lot of fun.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What about the ones that are at a university with a 75% white population?</p>
<p>college was infinitely better than high school.</p>
<p>I would have to say that my lowest points in college have been better than my highest points in high school. I was pretty involved in two extracurriculars in high school but I don’t even miss those because I have done much better things in college. I don’t have many fond memories of high school, so I only really think about it when I come home from school and there are physical reminders.</p>
<p>The first two weeks I missed it but after that, not even slightly.</p>
<p>I miss high school so much. I went to a small private school, graduated in a class of six, and had a close knit community of friends and teachers in high school. I don’t miss waking up early everyday, but I do miss the true friendship I had, knowing everyone I met. College is hard work and friends are not easily made - schedules mix and collide, cliques form, sex breaks friendships, people change a lot. It was so strange to not see the same people everyday for eight hours here. It’s hard to make friends, at least it is for me. I miss high school. I miss my friends. I hope college gets better as time continues on… (I’ll be a sophomore in the fall)</p>
<p>There are certainly things about high school that I miss. Knowing everyone in my classes, having a really tight-knit group of friends, etc. But there’s lots of good stuff about college too. Overall there’s definitely positives and negatives to both. I’ve had a bit of a rough freshman year of college, but things are looking up, and it’s looking like it will get better from here- and there are a lot of things that are already better than they were in high school.</p>
<p>Depends the way you look at it. I went to two highschools, I hated it except the athletic part. The 2nd school let me play varsity baseball and I had a girlfriend and stuff my senior year and partied. I also got some college offers to play athletics. Kind of got the whole jock experience my senior year so I enjoyed my senior year a lot. But still college is where its at. Its where your academics are pushed and you find out who you are.</p>
<p>I’ll definitely miss middle school and the first two years of high school. The rest? No thanks. </p>
<p>I miss aspects of it, but there are clearly aspects of university life that are much better. Best not to live in the past. There are some things I wish I would’ve done differently in HS, but there are also things I look back on and I’m happy/proud of myself for doing them. I’m sure once I’m done with college, I’ll think the same way.</p>
<p>i miss my classrooms and the teachers that were nice, i miss the smiles of students, their chatter. i had no friends to be sure, but the school was an almost magical place to me. there was so much nice stuff going on always, maybe i wasn’t a part of the community and integrated in it in any meaningful way, maybe i didn’t belong to any group, maybe i was silent as a mouse most of the time, but being the removed silent observer that i was may have helped me see how wonderful the whole thing was. how wonderful everyone looked. the kids were white, thin, and pretty (okay we’ll say the guys were handsome) and they wore very pretty clothes. it was like looking at a big group of graceful deer or impala. you know how all deer seem pretty, perfect the way they are, yet if you observed them for long enough probably distinct in their personalities and habits, and even to some degree in their features? well that’s how the students at my school looked, each one perfect yet discernible from the next. i’m not saying there were any that weren’t as pretty looking or graceful walking, there were, and some of the least graceful were the most interesting, but it was a strange experience nonetheless, and a good one to me because i thought it was nice to look at, to see so many attractive kids mingling with each other in the safety of our school. it was the safety of our school. i thought our school was so safe and perfectly insulated from the bad realities outside. when i walked in it i felt immediate comfort and security. when i left those things were replace by vigilance, caution, and fear. but inside there was warmness, it was so warm, i loved it.</p>
<p>my college has none of this, it’s filled with ugly asians and a decaying interior. the science building has been cordoned off this semester because of the litany of toxic chemicals that was found in harmful concentrations inside of it. our school is not a safe place, it is a cold place, a dark place, the classrooms do not welcome you, the teachers don’t look at you, overhearing a group of students here is night and day to listening in on the ones at my high school. at my school its innocent lambs planning a party or talking about a recipe, they smell nice, they talk sweetly, your worries dissipate. here its not the same. if they were the lambs than these are the wolves. they’re hungry, selfish, they hyperventilate, they talk of anime, their halitosis offends you. you feel disgust, your worries intensify.</p>
