<p>God I am so glad that I am finally graduation and moving to college. I can finally get away from my friends. Now don't get my wrong, I don't hate my friends, but I find them really really stupid. Let me explain what my friends are like. Do you know that group of people who hang out in the library? You know, the ones that crack women jokes, play card games, and are all around complete *******s? Yea, that my group. It's a conglomeration of nerds, geeks, and all around faggotry. The words "epic" and "win" are throw about 30+ times every lunch. So yea I can't wait to go to college and start all over. I'm going to try to get friends I can actually talk to rather than sticking together just because we have a common interest like video games.</p>
<p>How about your high school friends? Glad you're leaving them? Are they going to follow you?!!?!</p>
<p>I like my friends, but as horrible as this sounds… I’m so bored/ tired of them (with the exception of one or two)… Sometimes I just want to bash my head into a wall when I’m listening to them go on and on about pointless crap</p>
<p>My friends are pretty cool cause they are chill and smart. We basically scorn the entire school, since we are all so smart and arrogant. We consider ourselves elitists, aristocrats, upper-class, surrounded by lower mortals. I mean, why would you not be taking 6 AP’s and 8 college classes. That should be a minimum. I wish our school was a magnet school.
Can’t wait to go to a prestigious college so I can be further surrounded by actual cool people who enjoy cracking math jokes and making fun of everyone else. Also, I like expensive food clubs where everyone eats expensive, epic food while having a good time and laughing at the lower mortals in this country.</p>
<p>I really do love my friends because we are all sooo different, but i guess thats a problem too. I have the drama queen, the optimist (which gets rlyyy annoying), the geek, the crazy one, the boy addict, the gossiper…ya that sums up my closest friends. They’re great but they all fight often, not seriously but stupid little things like we are in misdle school. They get jealous to easily, and theyre all quite outgoing and i get together with them individuslly sometimes or as a group with maybe one person missing, but when i camt go or back out, everythings cancelled because they sat they dnt like hanging out without me…i like being thw glue in the friendship but i feel responsible for everyone and cnt take sides.
Point= cant wait for college!</p>
<p>I’ll have to admit it, I don’t even really like my friends, except one or two. It’s fun talking to them sometimes, but other times I just can’t stand them (especially the cutthroat asian ones). But except for one friend I have, I don’t really have that much in common with them. I can’t talk to them about a lot of things because either they’re the nice/not as smart type, or the crazy competitive asian you-better-not-get-into-a-better-college-than-me type. Erghh, I hope when I get to college I will meet more people that share my interests.</p>
<p>I actually really do like my friends, even though they may not be as smart as me (although there are a few that positively are). We all are not unpopular by any means, but crack academic/cheesy jokes like none other. We also play board games/video games often when we hang out. Also, my friends are completely chill. I will actually miss them all a large amount once I go to college next year, but I assume a 13,000 student body will have more than enough people to make up for it.</p>
<p>I love my friends, but I can’t really find anything to talk to them about anymore and they get on my nerves in strange little ways. Maybe I’m just trying to distance myself since we’ll be in different countries soon enough.</p>
<p>My friends at my current school are alright.</p>
<p>I’m not really close with any of them. Don’t get me wrong, I’d like to be, but I just can’t connect.</p>
<p>Then again, this year, I knew I’d never be able to really be good friends with one when she started using the word “trippy” and wearing South Pole shirts, and is still one of the most socially awkward students in the school. She’s not even “trying” to be cool. (Well, maybe on some subconsious level she is, but not surface deep.) She tries to do the cool things, but makes a fool of herself.</p>
<p>One of my other friends is very very elitist, but hypocritical too. I’m kind of laughing right now since I am recieving the silent treatment from her currently for calling her a b****. Good times. </p>
<p>The rest of my group is alright. None of them are really smart, or care to be. They hang at average without any question to their position.</p>
<p>My really good friends go to another school. My high school was split last year and I was one of the few of my good friends to have to stay. I would have transfered if transportation hadn’t been an issue. Those guys are amazing. I hardly see them now though.</p>
<p>My supposed “bff” has come to PMO daily. I don’t know whether she’s just tired of school like everyone else, but her attitude about college is really making me angry.</p>
<p>I ask her how she’s paying for college. She replies, in the most stuck up tone ever, “What do you mean? I’m not paying for it, my parents are.” I wanted to punch her out. Acting like she’s god’s gift to earth…her parents aren’t rich, and her mother is a stay at home mom. I know there’s no way they can pay for college with no help.</p>
<p>She also knows absolutely nothing about the college she’s going to. I ask her about all the standard statistics, how many people, scores and stuff, how much is costs per year…she replies: “Why would I know that? It’s not like I care.”</p>
<p>I ask her about the classes there…“I don’t know anything about them.” Um…shouldn’t you? “Why? It doesn’t matter. I’ll know when I get there.”</p>
<p>I’ve just stopped talking to her most of the time. She’s just PMO to no end. It’s like she’s going through the ***** stage she went through in 7th grade all over again…</p>
<p>I’ll be glad to get a break from her over the summer. </p>
<p>The rest of my friends aren’t bothering me too much, I guess. But sometimes they just seem…so ignorant what’s beyond high school, and this is the time where they need to start learning this stuff…</p>
<p>"OP: if you hate your “friends” so much then why do you hang out with them? It doesn’t sound like you are really friends… "</p>
<p>Well I don’t hate my friends but like for some other people here, some of my friends are really ****ing me off. “Why don’t I just make new friends?”. That’s a hard one, see I go to a school where 90% of students are white and mormon [Utah]. I’m an asian and i’m an Atheist. I would basically be trying to join groups in which people in them have known each other since elementary school. No way in hell can I compete with that.</p>
<p>I like my friends. I have a bunch of acquaintances but a very small, close-knit group of real friends.</p>
<p>I think the reason we all get along is because while we’re very similar in some ways, we have loads of different interests. Let me explain: we all are “good” kids in the sense that we all care about getting good grades (A’s/B’s) and taking tough courses and not partying/drinking/smoking/etc. </p>
<p>But at the same time, I’m really into writing/journalism while one of my friends is very athletic and is on the soccer team. Also, another one is super-smart and is planning to major in biochem in college, so science is basically her life. So, we get along well because none of us are each other’s competition on anything, yet we can all agree that we’d rather be going out to watch a movie rather than getting completely drunk on the weekends.</p>
<p>I adored my friends in 9th grade and we hung out all the time, but now, not so much.
The one I’ve known the longest got really into anime and was a total otaku for a while and now I completely don’t understand her. She’s dating a 21 year old guy, she gets high sometimes, most of her friends are not good students. I sometimes feel like I never really liked her. I met her in kindergarten, we became close in 4th grade, but that was only because she was friends with my best friend. And when we came to HS in 7th grade, she was the only person I knew. I feel sort of stuck with her.</p>
<p>The only friend I genuinely like moved away to Michigan about a year and a half ago. It’s been a year now since I saw her, but when I talk to her or see her or Facebook her, it’s always still fun. She’s mega smart and is planning to go to U of M, espcially since she practically lives in its shadow. Half the reason I want to go to U of M is because she’ll be there. She had a sort of “boyfriend” here whom I had known since we were 3 or something and we’re still pretty cool, but we were never really friends I guess.</p>
<p>I don’t really care that much about most of my other “friends.” I actually don’t consider most of them friends, but I go to their parties, I have fun or at least try to look like I enjoy it, and I’m generally amicable in their presence, but really, I couldn’t care in the least. I won’t miss them at all when I leave for college and they’re stuck going to U of Cinci. Well, I think I’ll miss Em a little, but she’s probably going somewhere nicer than UC.</p>
<p>I really like most of my friends, because my group of friends is so diverse that it hardly ever gets tiring. But sadly, I can’t say the same about the guy who used to be my best friend. We really got along back in my freshman year (his sophomore year), but I just find him unbelievably annoying now. I guess because we’ve been friends through high school, we’ve both changed so much. I’ve become much more mature, and he’s become more immature. Loud, obnoxious, bossy, controlling, rude, stupid… those are pretty much his most common attributes. I mean for God’s sake, the other day he asked me and another one of my close friends if the word “destroyed” ended in “yed” or “ied.” I can’t wait to go off to college over a 1,000 miles away where I have a good excuse to not hang out with him anymore.</p>
<p>I have 1 or 2 friends and the rest are aquaintances. People in my grade are either ignorant and think they’re all that (and competing with you), think all that is to life is drinking/hooking up, and there are those who could be potential friends if they weren’t so competitive.</p>
<p>I can’t wait for college and I’m never stepping foot in my school after graduation.</p>
