<p>I never really partied all that much in high school (never with alcohol…I remember the first party I was invited to Freshman year had alcohol and before I left home my gut told me some shyt was gonna go down. Shyt went down, cops came and cited at least 40 kids, all underage, and the kid who hosted it was put in juvy for possession of like 2 pounds of weed). So I guess you can say I’ve been pretty turned off by “high-school” parties ever since then, but I do chill with friends on the weekends and watch football, play pool, etc. Something chill.</p>
<p>But you better ***in believe I’m goin ham in college. Frat parties FTW (I’ve actually been to a couple…people know how to handle themselves and know when to call it quits before it gets busted even if they’re scshmammered). </p>
<p>To those who oppose parties altogether but have never been to any, actually give it a shot. You may find you’ll actually have a great time and you DON’T have to get schwasted (I don’t drink…don’t find it useful etc right now with so many rules but in college I’ll probably start).</p>
<p>drinking get-togethers are fun to just relax and have a good time (once a weekend).</p>
<p>bangers are really fun to meet girls, beer pong, etc. (once a month)</p>
<p>my friends that don’t like/don’t want alcohol simply ** don’t drink ** and enjoy watching and spending (very fun) time with those who do.</p>
<p>not that there’s anything wrong with not liking beer, but me, I realized something: in college pretty much all guys have to (socially) drink beer.</p>
<p>I started out hating the taste of beer, but after a few parties drinking beer, I now love the taste and am well prepared – this preparation is far more fun than AP exams etc haha – for college.</p>
<p>I would say I party like every other week, sometimes more ,sometimes less(I’m a junior)… My group of friends usually throws the parties, and they are legit crazy Its usually 50-60 of our good friends, some drinks, loud music, in an empty house. In the summer, I’d say 3-4 times/wk.</p>
<p>Question for y’all: Do the smart kids in your grade party? Or only the normal kids? In my school, all the smart kids do is stay home and study. I’m the only kid in my grade who is in APs/honors, but also parties…</p>
<p>I’m sorry, but no typical high schooler in the country has seen two pounds of weed at one time, unless they have INSANE connections. Thats a good $4000 worth of herbal/felony goodness.</p>
<p>The kid was loaded, you don’t even know. Indians apparently have mad hookups lol (I’m Indian so no racism). And he was ALWAYS high so that played a factor</p>
<p>the ridicously supersmart, nerd status kids dont party, they just study or sit him and sulk.</p>
<p>the smart (going to lehigh, notre dame, etc. and one ivyer…) party every weekend or so.
this is where im at and this is pretty fun.</p>
<p>and the less smart kids don’t party, i dunno why. i go to magnet school so most kids are at least somewhat bright. i don’t know how a normal high school would be.</p>
<p>I’m one of the smarter kids in my grade (top 10%, 400 kids in my class, got into an Honors College, 2110 SATs, etc) but not the smartest, and I party whenever I can. I had a huge group of friends in sophomore year but thanks to high school I’m a senior and by now they’ve all broken up into their little cliques. I just kinda got into a fight with one of my more popular friends so that connection is off for a little while. I’m not in the “right” group to get into the weekend ragers with all my ex-best friends (now they’re just friends), but I do get the chance to party occassionally. I smoke weed every month or so and drink a little more often. Right now I’m just waiting for college (too far away) so I can make new friends and not hafta worry about all this s<strong><em>.
Anyhoo, I did go to this crazy New Years Eve party. My friends and I drove up to Sunday River in Maine and went skiing all day. Then we went to a friend’s ski house, listened to him argue with his parents, then they left, he came up with 2 cases of PBR and said “let’s get this s</em></strong> poppin.” hahaha. So we had like five girls, 6-7 guys, two 30 racks, a handle of vodka and a bottle of wine. Everything was gone by morning. We pumped some loud tunes on TV and watched the ball drop, ripped some bowl hits in the middle of the street and then we had to walk back to my other friend’s ski house down the street. I surprised everyone with some celebratory cigars and we stumbled down the street and blazed our stogies and then got to our friends house, played some xbox, annd when the girls went to bed we passed out. </p>
<p>One of the greatest days/nights of my life. The best part? This will be the norm for college, like 3 times a week. H3ll f***in yeah</p>
<p>Also, we played beer pong and smoked a j on my friend’s porch while nearby restaurant customers watched us. It was so friggin funny haha one of my friends was like, “look, a family of four has joined us for our midnight joint.” hahaha</p>
<p>I think intelligence isn’t really related to partying.
I think it all depends on preference. I like to party and I’m pretty smart. I know kids who are smart who hate partying. It varies more than most think.</p>
<p>That’s so weird, my school is really split between normal/smart, and its like a direct correlation. But my school is a real underachieving school (about 80-90% of class goes to community college or the state school, 1 ivy every few years), so even the smart kids aren’t really that smart, but they NEVER party.</p>
<p>I guess I’m happy that I can have a balance, though.</p>
<p>Well… my school ends up sending 1-2 ivies every year, but our kids don’t desire them as much.</p>
<p>We’ve had people go to Harvard, MIT, Yale, Dartmouth and probably other Ivies.</p>
<p>There are a few IB Kids that do party… and every party involves people getting drunk, high, and other *<strong><em>. Pregnancies are a common occurrence. Our daycare and nursery are full as *</em></strong>. </p>
<p>Some people’s weekends involve just going to parties and doing jack ****.</p>
<p>“Some people’s weekends involve just going to parties and doing jack ****”
Those are the best type of weekends.
lol
But seriously, there are ways of balancing time. Going to one party to Saturday night is like, maximum, an 8 hour commitment. I study hard, but unless I have some night where I can just relax, or dance my stress away (wow, that sounds cliche,) life is boring…
Learning is fun, but so is partying.</p>
