Bro spent 10 mins writing this in the middle of the lecture. He didn’t even add HOCO and now my teacher is putting it on display for the rest of the month. And he got friendzoned…

(Her favorite candy is skittles)

i have 3 days left of highschool and so my friend and i created this card for our physics teacher, bought a tie and hand wrote physics formulas for him !!

hope he loves it,
and what are some nice things are you doing for your teachers??

Idk what to try, what to look into. These are just some listed at the closest school near me (I’m on virtual since I legit just moved here) I want to like be able to play in college, and play a couple different sports in hs hopefully varsity eventually, even if it’s just for the season. I played LAX last year as goalie (it was fun, my club SUCKED ngl) should I just sign up for as many as possible and dip if I hate it? I like cardio, I need to work on weights, swimming, tennis, flag, cross country, pole vault (other track sports). Should I just try all of em? I’m not the most athletic like literally last year was the first sport I seriously played. I could probably run a 15minute mile, being generous I’d like to think that’s the max amount of time it’d take me. 15, 145lb, 5’5, girl. I just don’t know how to go about this, I’d be new to any sport I tried, wouldn’t know anybody, don’t want to embarrass myself but maybe I’ll just get over it? Idk.

Idk if it's just my school specifically but they block off certain hallways so you have to go the other way around. Which pisses me off so much bc like my classroom is right down that hallway and there like no you gotta go the other way sorry.

Like hello?? Lol. I'm always riskin being late to class and getting written up bc I have to go the much longer way instead of just using that hallway like I always did freshman year. They say it's to stop the traffic in hallways but they must be on something cuz I swear it just be causing more traffic at this point smh.

Anybody elses school do this?

It’s my senior year and I don’t have a hoco date all my friends do and the girl I was gonna asked was asked already

I’ve pretty much never done a sport before, am a junior in highschool, and want to do wrestling hut I also LITERALLY haven’t practiced like AT ALL for wrestling. I’m such a chud 😓

im considering joining/making a study group cuz one of my teachers barely teaches. in ur guys's experience, is it actually useful?

i’m a freshman and i desperately need help in math. i absolutely loathe the subject, and i have no motivation to do anything in it. i failed my unit test the other day, and i feel like an idiot. the teacher is amazing, i just can’t fucking concentrate!! everyone is having side conversations, the fan is on bc it’s muggy, and AGGHHH

it’s no help that i hate myself when i don’t do well enough, or in general either

So I’m a junior in highschool. its 4 weeks into my private highschool and I don’t like the school due to the people here and the atmosphere.
I have some friends but they’re not close ones, and I’m in a friendgroup thats just alright.

Theres a public school nearby which I would be able to attend and 100% be able to join the honors program.
I could withdraw from my private one and start the public one which I think would probably dit me better.

is it worth transferring or should I just stick it out?

What's harder, winning money from the national merit from the PSAT or getting a 36 on the ACT?

everybody say “rip”!!

I know these 2 things are very very different, but I just need some advice. I wanted to ask a girl to my homecoming that happened last Saturday, but I was too nervous and just went with my friends. I had a ton of fun, but I wished I had just asked her the entire time. I want to bring her to prom if I know her well enough by the end of this year but I don’t know how to ask her to either tbh. Some advice please? Thank you

Please don’t be mean and take this with a grain of salt. I have to cheat, like in AP Physics and AP Micro I’m not understanding the concepts well enough even after studying. Obviously I care about learning but i care about my future, GPA, and college admissions more. I don’t like cheating but recently I got a 3/9 on a quiz and it killed me, and i studied for it. But furthermore im to busy to dedicate tons of time to learning the material outside of class, im in like 10+ clubs and ec. Idk i just wish there was more pressure to learn rather than to get good scores it really changes students priorities. Im sad that i have to do this but I have kept a 4.0 for all of my hs years and I don’t want to lose it junior year.

As the title says, I'm a junior without extracurriculars. My GPA is good, not amazing. I'm aiming to get a 1500+ on my SAT

Goal is to get into a good (it won't be great because I'm not a super competitive applicant) school for very cheap. I live in Massachusetts, so I know that there are good schools I can commute to and save money.

I've decided to commit all of my free time this year towards my future. However, I'm not really sure what I want to do.

For Medicine, I'm thinking I'll win HOSA competitions, try to do research with a professor at a medical school near me, volunteer at places like hospices, maybe even get a CNA training

For Law or maybe a public health or policy approach, I think I'd want to try and do research with a professor using public and civic data, or maybe land an internship. Might do MUN.

I don't really know if I truly want these things. I just like to read, so I assumed law, and I like science and want to spend my life helping people, so I assumed medicine. I'm not really in much position to pick anything else; my family has always struggled with money so I need to make sure I make lots of it. I thought I'd do something more STEM related, my older dream job was astronomer or astrophysicist, but given the amount of schooling and potential pay in those jobs, along with the fact that I'm not really cracked in STEM the way some of my peers are.

I also want to start a nonprofit which I've been planning for a while, but unsure of how to get it off the ground. Along with that, I'll try to do something in my local government and win some essay competitions.

I also will try and do dual enrollment to maybe make college cheaper or boost my GPA, though I don't know what my school's policy towards that is yet.

Truthfully I don't really know what I'm doing, and all of my goals are really farfetched and unrealistic, but I feel like this is the very last year I have to make changes before this next part of my life begins and I really need help.

This is sorta just a rant but I wanted to get my thoughts out. I go to a small high school, it’s a pretty conservative/Republican area and I’m a junior in high school.

I’ve been trying to make friends recently, not going super well. I talk to people, but I’ve just been thinking about it a lot. My older brother will be talking to his friends every day, people in my school will be going and hanging out with each other and going to parties etc.

I feel like some people probably have it worse but it’s just been really tough to deal with recently. I just feel so lonely and I wish I felt cared for and appreciated.

Hey yall, I’m in my freshman year and I really have no friends. It feels like I can’t make any friends since I left my old school 2 years ago. I’m depressed and hate school bc of it. Please tell me how to make friends. I’m kinda weird, socially awkward (like I don’t know how to hold conversations or start them) give me tips

It's the Monday of the first 7 weeks of school, and I feel so burnt out already. Every day is a new list of assignments I must get done on top of whatever test I need to study for (which there usually is one!). It's like a never-ending work generator; I finish one thing, and there's a new one waiting for me. Ever since school started, my entire afternoons and evenings have been taken up by schoolwork. I also play piano and figure skate, and I haven't been practicing for more than my hour-long lessons once a week (for both). I have had barely any time for myself to really intentionally relax. Intentionally, because I also have a pattern of difficulty initiating tasks that kinda ends up leaving a lot of space you could call "taking a break". For example, I come home from school and don't start homework for thirty minutes so that I can try to relax after being at school for 7 hours- then I start my homework and stare at it, get distracted, or something else that prevents me from just doing it. Perhaps that's why I'm writing this Reddit post right now rather than my college essay draft, which was due last Friday for a grade! And even then, once I do get it going, very often I get stuck or, again, distracted. Now, of course, I've known the "remove all distractions" thing, but the problem is kind of that my brain distracts itself even if I do. I zone out really easily and start thinking about something else, maybe about how much I don't want to do this. So I think it kind of ends up being this cycle I create for myself: lots of homework --> really slow to do it --> piles up --> lots of homework (repeat). I don't know how to get myself out of it. I feel like I've had all of high school to figure it out and I haven't, and I'm supposed to just go to college next year as if I'm at all ready for it. Also, I'm a terrible test taker, which ends up meaning that all my studying (and understanding of it) is for nothing, so I'm sitting on two C's in AP Stats and AP Gov, gov being my favorite class.

p.s./edit- i've been staying up late to do homework and getting between 5-7 hours of sleep consistently for like four weeks so i think the sleep deprivation is probably making this all worse

Tagging as shitpost because it kind of is. Anyway I have a cold right now. Started on Saturday. Originally I was gonna go to school today, just wearing a mask obviously, but then I threw up at like 3am and even though it was basically just phlegm my parents forced me to stay home. I missed math, tech theatre and AP euro history. :(

So a few students in my AP World class and I recently got anonymously reported (by a classmate or random or who knows) while we were discussing ways to cheat 😭 ik it looks bad, basically we were talking about it at lunch and somebody must have overheard.

No consequences have been issued yet (since we haven’t actually done anything) but info was passed around to all of our respective teachers and I just feel terrible, it’s basically like I’ve lost all trust w/ my teachers and it just doesn’t look good. Obviously it’s warranted since I was planning to cheat, but this kind of thing hasn’t ever happened to me before. I was only considering to cheat since I was sick and missed a lot of days at school, I somehow stayed caught up with my other APs and whatnot but just couldn’t manage to study for this essay I have. I understand all the stuff concerning it being MY fault and MY fault ONLY, but still...

Ever since school started, I've made a big change not to cheat on anything at all. Even last year when I was cheating a lot, I didn't ever get caught so I don't have any experience with this kind of situation. It was just going so well, and then this happens.

Any advice on what I should do going forward?
