Final Work On High School

This blog is calling for one last word on high school life. Everyone knows us highschoolers have problems with juding people from the first time we look at them. Within high school we find many differant groups and they people that stck to that certain group. Throughout high school some of us might move from one group to another by the time we graduate, then there are other people that just never fit in anywhere. It may be because they dont look or act like anyone else in the school. That or maybe they really do perfer to just be alone, and a lot of times its because being alone is all they know.

There is so many differant groups and stereotypes out there its unbelieveable. Its anywere from what you look like, how smart you are, and just cruel racism.

In every high school you can find the jocks, nerds, losers, geeks, pot heads. blacks, the stuck up ones, the loners, and many more types of groups. I dont know if you have seen it, but have you heard of the television show " If you really knew me"? People acctually travel to schools and talk to students and get them involved out of there comfort zone. And with life were going to find a lot of times where we will need to step out of that zone. Doing that with fellow students is a great way to learn about other people and that everyone has problems and we shouldnt be judged for how we are because thats all we know and its how we are raised. No one is the same, we all come from differant families with differant ways of living.

Now the movie everyone is familiar with and is famous for dealing with stereotypes and judging is "Mean Girls" Here is a little clip found on YouTube.

Farewell

It's hard to say goodbye isn't it? At the time you think it's just a few words, I can spit them out. Once you get to the situation though, it's not so easy. Sometimes you're just to attached and you can't get yourself to do it.

Sometimes it just doesn't even seem real enough that you have to actually let it go.

If you're one of those people that have a hard time saying goodbye, maybe it's easier for you to write it. I know it's not the same, but sometimes it's easier to do it that way. Plus it's a goodbye that person can remember forever.

Try writing a note, a letter, a peom, a few quotes, anything that works for you. If you need a little help here is some sites and a few examples:

For Our Memories

To all my friends,
Dearest and all,
We are fleeting memories
Like the leaves of fall.

The winds of change
Sweeping us from our roots.
Away from what made us.
All the fun and disputes.

Every day we grow older
And less agile.
Every day closer
To being more fragile.

But when we come to an end,
A crunch and crumble step away,
I will always remember
Our reckless summer days.

“True goodbyes are the ones never said or explained.”

“Don't be dismayed at goodbyes, a farewell is necessary before you can meet again and meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.”

      “You and I will meet again, When we're least expecting it, One day in some far off place, I will recognize your face, I won't say goodbye my friend, For you and I will meet again”

Eating Disorders

Many teenagers these days are developing eating disorders. Thanks to society and our lovley cosmo dreams is why people are getting these disorders.

New Years

Now im sure no one wants too here it, but be safe!  New Years eve is all about partying and everyone knows it. Eveyone also knows that teens are going to go out and party.  But this year I think you should remeber bringing in the new year. So stay sober! Of course you need too be with your friends, and your boyfriend if you have one, but that doesnt mean you need too involve illigal substances. Along with drinks that are not for the teenage age group! Now once us teens become older and age appropriate then a few drinks are absolutley normal!

Taking people for granted

Have you ever felt like you were going to be able to see someone forever? That really no matter what you could see them whenever you want, say anything to them whenever you need too. Well thats not true. Today, we take everything we have for granted. Things happen in our lives that can change everything in a split second.You could lose that person , and realize you weren't treating them the way you should have . Maybe you didn't show them the respect they deserved, or maybe you didn't get to tell them that you loved them. So right now text, call or get a hold of someone that maybe you have taken for granted, because they aren't always going to be there.

Getting on the Right Track

Ever feel like you've mess up so bad and you just don't think you can ever fix it? Well you're wrong, because you can fix it. It'll be hard yeah, but you have to think is it really worth changing back to the way that you want.

You first have to realize what your doing that you just hate so much. Then you have to think of solutions on how to fix it. You wanna be able to fix the problem without having to completely change the person that you are.

Like for example say you were failing in school, and doing drugs, and skipping out on family occassions. When really you're the type of kid that gets straight A's. you think drugs are gross, and you'd rather be with your family then anywhere else.

Well you can easily fix all this. Ask yourself: "Why am I doing all of these?" "Where's these grades and this cigarette gonna get me in life?" those kind of question.

Soon you'll come to realize it's better to be health and happy then to be failing and funky.
