<p>So far mine are being on the soccer team, making top 10% and dancing at banquets lol :)
Im going to be a senior this year so I want to make more memories!!!</p>
<p>When I left on the last day</p>
<p>My last orchestra banquet. I even tear’d up a bit when I was helped the clean-up crew. </p>
<p>Getting expelled in January of my senior year for selling drugs and never seeing my closest friends again.</p>
<p>My high school did Rent for our musical my senior year (I stage managed). A small group of faculty members always sing a song for the seniors at our graduation ceremony, and they sang the finale from the show - the moment the first chord was struck and our director sang the first note, all of the people who were involved in the musical started bawling. I watched the school’s official video of it - you can hear several of us gasp as we burst into tears. LOL.</p>
<p>(<a href=“RENT - Finale B - YouTube”>RENT - Finale B - YouTube; if you’re interested; I would have posted the one from the original Broadway soundtrack but I couldn’t find it on Youtube…)</p>
<p>[/feels]</p>
<p>I was the only junior in my AP English Literature class, and the seniors got out of school earlier than everyone else. So I was the only person in the class for a few days, and the teacher gave me microwave popcorn and we talked about the education system and what I was going to do with my life. </p>
<p>Being part of the Pit Orchestra for Legally Blonde: The Musical at my school this year.
Also one time for Pep Band in the winter, we invited the middle schoolers, so we were VERY loud. That was great. B-) </p>
<p>Pit orchestra for two musicals
Mock Trial for two years (the evening meetings, crazy prep leading up to said meetings, the competitions, the parties afterward)
Being in band class and laughing about the most stupid things with my friend (we did this in BC Calc too)
The post-AP-Chem baseball game (we all bought tickets and went to the next city to see the game)
And as weird as this sounds, the Masses, especially in our chapel. I’m not religious at all, but our chapel windows are really beautiful.</p>
<p>And I haven’t even started senior year</p>
<p>Because I go to a title one school, I have experience so many things!!!
I’ve seen
-Multiple drug busts in my school…
-A lot of fights, including a water balloon fight…
-As juniors in a pep rally, we TP’d the seniors!
- a pretty lame school-wide Harlem Shake
-at prom, we have a thing called “the circle of shame” which is a group of people grinding in a circle. The girls are bent over and after a few minutes, the guys yell SWITCH and they rotate to the next girl. It’s very disturbing but pretty hilarious.</p>
<p>I’m sure there is a lot more but I cannot think of them at the moment. Needless to say, my school is crazy.</p>
<p>Friday of the second week of summer school (or first, I forgot xD), me and some friends went to the town community pool after school. It was really nice just swimming, riding the slides, and going on the diving board. Then, one of my close friends from my old school came to the pool! It was a nice coincidence :3 There was this creepy girl that was obsessed with me… She squeezed my butt underwater…</p>
<p>I also loved summer school in general. I loved my classes, and I had a great Speech teacher 
I made so many friends, especially in PE. No one from my old school took PE, but I’m glad because I’d probably just talk to them the whole time. PE was really fun, since we went bowling on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the last half of summer school. We got on a bus and went to Stardust and we were allowed to buy food! They asked for your name so they could call you when your food was ready, and I said my name was Chang every time, since I’m Asian xD The lady running the kitchen started calling me Chang all the time, even when I wasn’t ordering food.</p>
<p>Well during my freshman year, I basically blew this huge paper in my English class. This either made or broke your grade. I messed up the presentation completely. I showed a clip of a film that had way too much profanity; let’s say it was one directed/written by Tarantino. The f word spilled out a few times and there were extremely loud gunshots. Some teachers in the other hall were scared to death and thought a shooting was going on hahaha. It was really awkward. But I got the grade I deserved and the teacher, who is notorious for being extremely harsh, still encouraged me to pursue writing and AP English classes although I came off as an idiot. She actually believed I was something, despite that horrible presentation.</p>
<p>Oh so I forgot about this one APUSH project presentation and provided the group of slackers with the questions the night before. One of my groupmates, dreadful person, told the teacher on me and he gave me this lecture outside the room; that didn’t stop anyone from hearing it. So I was the moderator of this stupid debate, obvi since I made the questions. So the groupmate who told on me is this entitled, annoying person. They had slandered me and told like everybody about the incident and how incompetent I was. So I embarrassed her in the debate by asking questions that one could easily answer. They were difficult questions and she obviously didn’t read up on her part. She thought I would back down, pffffttt. Few people get to see the Frank Underwood side of me, and she was one of them. My APUSH teacher gave me like an 85 and she got a better grade only because she is a kiss-up. I don’t care though. That teacher and I were never close, so I couldn’t care less about the “ruined” relationship. Those annoying young people in the “honors bubble” don’t cross me or assume I am stupid. In fact, many of them hate that girl and started to like/respect me more for it. That’s quite pathetic though & I hope I NEVER have to do that again, no matter how confident I felt. </p>
<p>Football games with your marching band.
The best.</p>
<p>Playing cards in BC calc for like three weeks after the AP exam
Humming the national anthem, like I always did, at my final softball game. Four years-and then done.
I’m sure there are a lot more that I could think of, but these stand out.</p>
<p>I always love to reminisce about this as I think about / talk to incoming seniors.
Senioritis.</p>
<p>Senior year is when you get to kick back and let all the tricks that you’ve learned throughout high school do the work for you. Taking notes and vocabulary assignments: BS them all (yet often they were enough free points so you wouldn’t have to worry about studying too hard for exams) --AKA for definitions make things up as you go and notes just scribble things related to what is said in the textbook as fast as possible. And I love how my AP Government teacher in light of college coming, assigned no homework and let you bump up your grades via the AP exam final.</p>
<p>I stopped taking notes in class about halfway through and got to come to school and just kick back and watch the lectures. Then there were extracurriculars that I could finally put more devotion into than my academics.</p>
<p>~If only I learned the senioritis tactics earlier so I actually would’ve had better time management in earlier years (not wasting time doing pointless work)</p>
