<p>I'm entering senior year this year, but I do not think I can handle another year of high school! The people are dramatic, the teachers only care about themselves, and everything is weirdly graded. I CAN'T WAIT FOR COLLEGE. LITERALLY. I can't wait to be in a dorm, to learn about stuff I WANT to learn, have challenging days, partying days, struggles of studying and all of it! I know senior year, and high school in general, are supposed to be the "best years of our lives" and I looked upon high school as optimistically as I could for three years. Any tips On how I can survive???</p>
<p>Lol what your high school is really weird. I know how you feel, I want to go to college because there is more freedom than highschool. If you want tips, just do your days how you normally do and you’re good.</p>
<p>Uggggh I just want escape! Ill try my best 
good luck too you too lol @XxSkizzyxX</p>
<p>Thanks and good luck</p>
<p>I’m going to be a junior. 
I’m sick of high school too. All I can really say is to live in the moment and make the most out your last year and not think about college as much. </p>
<p>I TOTALLY FEEL YOU.
Researching about colleges is making me really excited to go off to college… I don’t know if I can last another year in high school. But I’ll try to enjoy it as much as possible since high school is supposed to be some of the best years of our life. I’m looking forward to second semester! </p>
<p>@TotallyTrudy Junior year is the worst year; stay strong!</p>
<p>I feel you guys - I really want to kind of just do my own thing. I’m tired of high school.
At the same time, I’m going to miss all my friends, so I’m just going to try to enjoy the coming year.</p>
<p>All the research I’ve done about college makes me SO EXCITED! I can’t deal with all these people for another year. But I have to especially since I’m senior class president. Only because no one else ran… But I’m trying to reinvent myself and trying to be tolerant of everyone. I’ve done really well so far so I’m hoping I can just magically become an amazing person. Hahaha. I know one day I’ll look back and miss the people, but I’m ready to meet my friends for life in college. I’ve always wanted to be in a group of friends. It makes me sad and scared that all my friends are applying to different schools though. But I hope I manage to save the best relationships. </p>
<p>@SomethingWithin I feel the EXACT same way. Haha. :(</p>
<p>I don’t think anyone actually believes that the high school years are the best part of your life. Even if they are, it’s probably not because of high school itself and “these are the best years of my life” is a pretty depressing thought because it implies that everything after this is going to be worse. </p>
<p>College is just another part of life (for some people). Of course it looks like paradise in the brochures, but there won’t be any shortage of kids who annoy you and people who don’t care when you think they should. Grading can be weird. You might have to take giant lecture classes. A lot of times the classes you want will be full before you get a chance to register for them, especially when you’re a freshman. You’ll have to take classes you don’t want to take for distribution requirements, and you probably won’t even like all the classes in your major. (But there’s no reason to put limits on what you “want to learn.” Anything you learn will make you smarter than you were before.) Struggling is usually not fun in the moment. I mean, college is still better than high school, but don’t romanticize it more than it deserves. </p>
<p>I feel like college will be more of a place where you can avoid annoying people, especially if you go to a big campus. I go to a high school that’s maybe 1000 kids AT MOST, so you tend to see the same people over and over again. Everyone is also in everyone’s business. But the colleges I’m applying to are all decently big except for one, but the small one is across the country so I HIGHLY DOUBT I’ll bump into anyone I know. Hahaha. </p>
