Description So I graduated! That is a pretty big thing in my book. I even won a departmental award: English! Betcha didn't know I was a good writer, hur hur hur.

Anyway, whatta long four years they've been! High school was awful for me, because I am neurotic in nature and always was SO STRESSED OUT. I think I was part of, what, 6 clubs and 1 sport? Yeesh. Switch the "junior" and "senior" year kids in this and you pretty much have my high school experience.

Drawn for my school newspaper, of which I am was Editor-in-Chief and resident cartoonist.


I'll miss you, baby. ;_;

SO TRUE. XD Even if our grade naming system is different here.

Ooo, how does your naming system go?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

trilly-ankh In reply to fish-puddle [2010-07-03 03:35:04 +0000 UTC]

Junior high is 7th grade to 9th, and high school is 10th to 12th.

...

So we don't really have names at all, I guess. Just grade numbers.

Aaaaaw. You should make up names! That would be awesome.

trilly-ankh In reply to fish-puddle [2010-07-04 21:20:22 +0000 UTC]

Well... I guess the school system could adopt this:

Freshmen=Fresh Meat
Sophmores=Fair Game
Seniors=Indoctrinated
Graduated=Free

Yeah... pretty lame. Maybe this is why we don't have grade names... ^_^;

Well, that's good, I suppose. ^^ Maybe give people a warning of what they're getting into. or scare them away entirely. Who knows.

fish-puddle In reply to trilly-ankh [2010-07-08 16:07:05 +0000 UTC]

Probably the latter. xD

Funny story! When I first went into high school as a freshman, I was convinced I was going to get shoved into a locker, because that's what always happened on TV. I was always super paranoid. It was sad. xDDD

trilly-ankh In reply to fish-puddle [2010-07-09 05:35:18 +0000 UTC]

I never got shoved into a locker, just locked in one. Voluntarily, too.

I also expected all sorts of things based on what I'd seen on TV, but it ended up just being another year of school. >> It was disappointing.

i agree, the senior year should be looking up in comparison to the junior year. as far as i've heard from my upperclassmen friends, junior year is the stressful one and seniors take it easier once they're accepted to college.

and congrats on graduating!

fish-puddle In reply to CrypticLyrics [2010-07-03 01:24:00 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! And it only depends on your work ethic. I did not get senioritus till the last two weeks, but I know some people who didn't do any work for the whole last semester. xD

CrypticLyrics In reply to fish-puddle [2010-07-03 15:51:04 +0000 UTC]

It just seems to me like even if you were trying in senior year, junior year has SATs, (for us) state standardized tests, college applications, etc. so even though the work would be slightly more in senior year you wouldn't be as stressed as junior year.

I think I looked more like the junior year kid during my freshman year. My backpack wasn't as heavy, but boy, I was still pretty miserable.

You are most certainly welcome. Now before you go off to college and all, come to Japan

Yeah, I'm an expat kid. I've lived here for five years.

Yeah ^^ Except that I don't really need to make international friendships coz I'm half Indian, half Filipino, I was born in America, and I live in Japan. You can't really get more international than THAT.

Wow, really? Freshman year wasn't too bad for me. Actually, sophomore was the best. Easier classes, I guess?

Senior year wasn't too hot for me. I had my panties in a bunch the whole year, plus I had major problems with one class (AP Calculus- the horror!). It's different for everyone, I suppose.
