stress

While in high school you probably will experience a lot of stress.  The best way to get rid of stress is just letting loose and hanging out. It’s not healthy to be stressed, at all. Stress can cause a lot of complications in your health. One of the ways that I deal with stress is listening to music. If im really stressed out I take a break, breathe and put country music on. Your music doesn’t have to be country, it can be anything. It can be pop,rock,country,r&b,rap, anything you like. You should never stress so much over something that it makes you sick. Trust me it can happen, and another thing don’t stress over the little things. For instance if you get ONE bad grade, don’t stress ask for extra work to do or study harder next time.  Its not really a big deal if you don’t get the A you want.  All in all you shouldn’t stress about the little things, you should enjoy life one day at a time and don’t let anyone get you down.

drama

In high school you’ll experience a lot of drama, and if you’re lucky youll just hear about it rather than experience your own. Drama stinks, its awful. Most people start drama just so they can get a laugh out of it or just because they feel bad about themselves. Ive learned,from experiences that its better if you don’t let it get to you. People are always going to try to bring you down in life, but you cant let them. All in all this is high school. Its not real life, all of those people that start drama and believe the drama are probably not getting anywhere in life. When people start drama about you, don’t let it get to you. All there looking for is for you to get upset and it’s not worth it at all. Especially if it’s a lie, let them think what they want, even if its fake. Its better for people to confront you about it and if they believe the rumor over you there probably not your real friends.  Also if you HEAR drama about someone, don’t automatically believe its true cause 99% of the time its false. I don’t get why people make up such horrid stories about people, I don’t get how it could possibly make them feel good about themselves. Ive always been taught not to start things, and if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it at all. It really amazes me how some people can say such mean things and feel so good about themselves.

Things you'll miss

In high school the only thing you can think about is graduating, well at least thats the case for me. But as the school year goes on and on I keep thinking of everything I'm going to miss. The things that don't seem like a big part of your life will really effect you later on. Some of the things I'm going to miss are my classmates the teachers and the memories I've shared with all these people my last four years of being here. I've gotten close to a lot of people and I've lost some friends, but that's life. A lot is going to happen to you. And a lot has happened in my life, but if I never met any of these people than I probably wouldn't have gotten through it. I love my friends and my family, and if I never went to Abington high I probably would've never met them. I can't picture my life any different from than it is. As much as I hate going to school and the work, I love it. I love seeing my friends everyday. I think it's true what they say, a day is never over until you laugh. Or something along those lines. I've had more laughs in my four years than I could possibly imagine, and I don't know what I'll even do when I'm out of here. Take every moment for granted. Because these truly are the best years of your life.

Relationships~

In high school a lot of people are all about relationships. But if you have a relationship at the wrong time, it can be really stressful. If your handeling a lot at a time and you feel really stressed out with to begin a relationship can be ten times harder. Relationships already are really hard, you need to give your everything to the person your in a relationship with. Trust is really important in a relationship, if you dont have trust you basically dont have a relationship.

Studying

Studying is also super important. I didnt think that I needed to study at all in highschool. I thought that everything would just come to me. But as the years have passed on I noticed that you really do have to study. If you dont study then you wont really get anything that is on the quiz or tests. Studying will also help you remeber the information in the long run, which is very important. If you dont study then you might do really bad on the quiz or test and it will bring down your grade a lot.

homework

Its really important for you to do homework. You might not think it now, but when you get to your senior year its important. If you dont do your homework then your grade points will go down a lot. I, know first hand how important homework is now. I never ever do homework, and the consequences are brutal. If you dont get in the swing of doing your homework every night, you wont get the practice you need for that subject. Also you might get lost on what your doing in class.

People you'll meet.

There will be a lot of people that will walk in and out of your life in the whole four years of high school. Some of them will stay in your life throughout the four years but the majority of them will leave. Never ever depend your whole life on the people you meet in high school. Always put your family first, they will never leave you. Its stupid to put your high school friends before your family.

absenteeism

If your like me, your absent a lot. if your like me, you never do a whole week of school. Being absent a lot can really bring your grades down and put a lot of stress on you. If you are absent a lot or are going to be absent for a long period of time, you should try and get all of your makeup work ahead of time. If you dont know your going to be absent, you should ask a friend to come over or help you learn the lesson.

time managing

Although high school can be super stressful, its important to manage your time really well. A lot of people might have jobs, after school clubs, homework, and trying to stay in touch with friends. All of this might be really hard if you dont know how to manage your time. If you want to manage your time, here are a few suggestions. Use an agenda to make sure you know everything you have to do. Write down things that are important, for instance if you have a team meet, or work extra that week. If things are getting too tough and you have to much on your plate, ask you work for less hours on the week and more on the weekend. Most workplaces wont mind cutting your hours. If your still stressed about school and youve cut your hours, try to do your homework in a study, or directly after school.

Woooork

Most of the work in high school is hard. If you want classes with easy work you should take child development, 21st century digital media. These classes have little to no homework. But the classes that have the most work are probably your standard math class. These classes have so much work and if your absent a lot then you probably should try to avoid a math class senior year. if you want to avoid a math class, you have to make sure you do really well on the math mcas. or you can do a placement test and get out.

teachers

if you're looking for fun, caring teachers there are certain teachers to go to. while all the teachers at abington high are nice. mrs mchugh, mr mcginnis & mrs daisy are the teachers to go to if you need to vent or to complain to. mrs mchugh & mrs daisy are the teachers that will listen and help you through everything. while mr mcginniss will tease you, but thats only if he knows you can handle it. but not to fear, because you can joke around with him as easily has he can joke with you. these teachers are the ones that you can joke around with, and half the time i totally forget they are ever teachers. 

Classsses

Most people complain about work if you want a class with little to no work you should take psychology, 21st century digital media, or business. psychology you mainly have projects and 21st century digital media you have blog posts due every week. business you don't really ever have homework. you should really try to get classes that you find interesting, this makes the classes easier to learn and grasp. & you should most certainly never, ever take classes that you dislike or hate. that will make the class feel like its dragging on and you mind find it difficult learn.
