I just had my grade 9 orientation, and It was pretty sweet, But there are so many choices that it is making me feel agoraphobic...

It was really cool how there were so many things to pick from that were actually interesting . That and I won a free T-shirt;)

Heh, the first few days where you learn you new freedom's are pretty nice, but eventually that feeling will wear off, and you'll just feel like, whatever.

Yeah, call me while you're at it too. I probably needed a break from playing Majora's Mask anyway.

Don't forget; The goal is grow and work. Work will compliment your growth, which will enable further work capacities that you can employ to your own end later in life. Full speed. Also, beware of burnout.

I got out as soon as possible. When you become 16 (if you live in California), you might wanna take the CSHPE. 50% of the High School I went to won't graduate, so I recommend a lot of people take this test even if they want to stay in high school.

Yeah if you're doing Liberal Arts or something like that. Take anything that requires actual work, and you'll be so much busier than the cakewalk that is highschool.

Dude. make the most of your high school years. Make friends, get girls, have fun. Remember, grades ARE NOT the most important thing in your life, living well is. I'm not saying don't care about your grades, but just remember; life isn't worth living unless you live like you love life. (woah. Say that aloud)

The only thing I'm pumped about is finishing a powerpoint for a 15 minutes presentation for my Junior Seminar in Historical Methodology class about the rise of Parochial Schools in America, particularly Boston, NYC, and Philly. After that I present it and then I have finals to worry about.

Wrong. Really really wrong. High school kicks, but friends help. Lack of friends is a lot harder to deal with.

Do not slack off, also get involved. You probably hear those phrases through most of your day but you really won't understand the importance of it until its too late to make any major changes.

I agree, it is a lot more work. And putting in effort is going to guarantee you an A like High School. But having more free time out of class, the more relaxed atmosphere, and the increased individualism that comes with it is far worth it. I used to hate High School, but in college I actually look going forward to classes (or at least most of them). It also depends on what college you go to, if you have great professors, you'll enjoy it.

I'm in 9th grade right now, and while it's better than middle school, don't expect it to be anything amazing. Much of the same, day in and day out.

QFT. First year engineering, I've written just written 2 finals today, 1 tomorrow and another the next day. High school was absolutely nothing compared to this.

I'm happy to hear you're so excited about it. I personally was scared to death of going to high school and it probably effected by experience there negatively, but it definitely sounds like you are getting off on the right foot :) good for you.

Um, what truth? That high school is pathetically easy and is one of the best times of your life? Wouldn't that make being excited the appropriate response...?
