Well, it's my first day/week tomorro, any tips on how to start off the year?
-
Same shit as middle school. As long as you arnt a bitch(I'm serious) you'll be fine. Oh and get involved with things outside of class like clubs or sports. You'll meet a lot of people.

As someone who's no longer in High School;
Don't give a single fuck about the people. Have friends, sure, but realize that you'll more often than not, never speak to any of those high school friends again. If you're looking at post-secondary school (college), your grades DO matter, get good ones, other than that, nothing you do will be remembered from high school.

Somone's advice is pretty bad lmfao. Friends are just as important in high school as grades are. Sure, you may not keep in touch with all of them after you leave, but just having those connections and relationships helps you grow, and prepares you for the real world. I've got a ton of friends who have gone off to college on the east coast, and I talk with them all the time, whether it be Facebook, email, texting, Skype, etc. We just talk about like and stuff, and it's really cool. We've got access to that now with all the social media and related stuff.
My advice to you: make friends, and be open to things. Make sure you actually try at schoolwork, and manage organization/homework/studying. It'll get harder as you go through, so make sure you stay on top of things. High school's pretty fun, but it does take work.
-
Well, both of you are right. Make friends and have some buddies you can rely on, but be prepared to move on after you all graduate and move on with your lives. Dont let it get in the way of your work though. High school prepares you for post-secondary. Those who slacked through high school show in college/university as they struggle to learn from lectures and studying. Just remember, you're not even close to being finished with education.
-
head up and mind yo own business, be funny.
-
if someone starts to be a prick with you (there is always a bully at school) then do not be afraid to stand up to them, and if they continue, ignore when teachers go "do not retaliate tell teacher yes???" because that shit makes things worse but instead smash their teeth down their throat.
also yes try to do the best you can and get the best grades you can achieve then you can become a strong intelligent man and go to college/uni later on

To add to this:
It's fine to be an asshole to assholes. But don't be an asshole yourself.
In other words, when someone bullies you, you can somehow counter their bullshit back at them. But show yourself as a positive guy to your teachers and pay attention in class. This will set you up with a nice reputation of a positive good student to your teachers, and a person not to fuck with to all other students.
So simply said: Don't get into trouble yourself. But fight trouble back.
-
Don't try to fit in and don't take anyones bullshit and you'll be fine.

Don't give a single fuck about the people. Have friends, sure, but realize that you'll more often than not, never speak to any of those high school friends again. If you're looking at post-secondary school (college), your grades DO matter, get good ones, other than that, nothing you do will be remembered from high school.
I don't think that's entirely good advice. I get where you're coming from but more often than not (from experience and what others have told me) it's not WHAT you know, it's WHO you know. So building bridges, even in high school, is a good thing. That's my opinion at least.

I think someone just had a bad time in high school or something lol. While what he's saying is true to a certain extent, high school is still very important. It's something you are going to remember and look back on when you're older, even talk to your parents about it. While you can take comfort in that high school won't matter in certain ways after its over, it's something you are going to remember so make the best of it.

You just gotta find the perfect balance. IE right now in my Paramedic program, all 8 of us (the students in the class) have gotten on good terms with eachother and have a little connection when we have issues with quizzes or whatever. We also make timmies runs voluntarily. I guess the moral is get on good terms with your peers and dont be afraid to say "Hi." But dont forget about your school work and preparing for post secondary.

I hope that my school has a fire fighter program. I want to get get in that if we do.

Sign up for wrestling, it's the best sport high school has ;)

Whatever you do, for god sakes don't slack in grades...unless you plan on creating businesses (something along those lines) you'll need a college education for your future. If you get horrible grades in high school, it makes life much harder after you've finishing High School. Also quick tip, don't go tryhard mode to get people to like you. Sometimes people can see that and it only pushes them further away. AND, if you're being bullied I think we all agree here is to stand up for yourself, don't let yourself be their bitch. Don't take people's bullshit because you'll be seeing a lot of it.
-
Actually give a shit about what you do. High School is going to be on of the best moments of your life. You're going to make a lot of friends and enemies. Don't try to be the guy that everyone likes, either. Just do your work, get good grades, and stay out of trouble. Don't try to be a smartass to your teachers, either. They get paid to teach you a certain way, so just do what they want you to do.
Also, forget what anyone thinks about you. You're you, so act like it.
-
To be quite honest. Be yourself and be the person who YOU wanna be. If anybody says shit. Insult them back. If it goes to far then knock them out, if you don't wanna fight ask a friend to help. A few of my friends have asked me for help at times and I did help and now they are in a lot better situation.

for all you people saying "fight back to bullies" that's probably a stupid move, i don't know how it works where you are, but most places you will get in deep trouble for even touching ANYONE even if they touched you first

better than telling teachers/parents which will cause even more shit between you and the bully

Topic locked for obvious reasons
Unlocked. Posts were removed.
No more trolling

I wasn't aware that it was impossible to have a little fun on the forums anymore, sorry
-
I'm sorry but posting images of weapons and saying you'll bring them to school isn't "chill". Its childish. This is social discussion if you didnt know. Its where people post legit things expecting legit replies. Be respectful please.

yea no, that will no you no where but a sea of bullies, not fighting back is the worst thing you could ever do. teachers always say "oh go tell the counselor blah blah blah" but that shit never works, and the problem is never fixed. without hard evidence that someone is actually bullying you they can't do anything to the person. sure they can try to "interogate" him/her, but obviously the fuck would say that he never did anything. take it from a person who had friends that were bullied and had to stick up for them because they couldn't.

Already did. I just stated what would happen to anyone else who finds it a good idea to continue.

Back on my old secondary school, I was bullied myself. I never stood up for myself and it only resulted in being shown as the weak spot and hence an easy target for even more bullying.
Showing that bullies shouldn't mess with you by fighting back, they will back off as they know you are not a weak and easy target.
Surely your teachers will say to go to the counciler/teacher and report them. Just like how we tell you to report rulebreakers instead of taking matters into your own hands on the servers. Because it could make things worse. But with bullying it works different and hence you have to make sure you aren't becoming a weak target and stand up for yourself.

while you'll likely get suspended/grounded/whatever for like a week, it's a lot better then spending years being walked all over.

smashing a bully's teeth down his throat is the best solution, telling the teachers is the equivalent of committing suicide

You tell a teacher first then if it doesn't resolve, stand up to the bully. I don't know about where you live, but here, there is atleast 1 police officer monitering every hall

you will NEVER resolve it by telling a teacher, that is the fastest way to be killed

Alright, that's enough arguing.
Everyone has his own ways of solving problems. And one way might be better than the other, they both might work or might not work. It all depends on the school, teachers and the way things are done.
Since OP's question is pretty much answered many times and it has been a while, I'll lock the thread to avoid it bursting out in a fight.
If OP wants it unlocked, he can PM me and I'll unlock it.
