How to get the best experience in highschool

ok, so I want to know how to get the best experience in highschool. without doing drugs, sex, or anything like that.

best advice I ever figured out for myself- if you sit alone, no one is going to mock you, or even really notice (sadly, most people care only about themselves and whether or not that body odor is coming from them or the chick sitting next to them. They're too busy trying to discreetly sniff their armpits to be bothered with. believe me, this is pretty much a metaphor for life)

also, don't become *popular* everyone gossips about you. its way better to just be nice to everyone and have a huge circle of friends. there will be people who dont like you and mock you at every turn, but dont think they're cool just cause they diss you. sounds weird but a lot of people I know reckon some people are cool cause they consistently air their opinions and diss them. I know I know, its weird, but the thing to remember, if you listen to other people talking about theml, they'll most likely be branding those kids losers , so they definitely arent worth wasting your precious teenage angst on. And believe me, there are plenty other things to waste it on.

you can live without parties. trust me, I pretty much go to work and our church's youthgroup and thats it for my life outside of school. I survive. just get a group of friends that love ya and stick to em.

how to get friends- just be bold. walk into that classroom where nobody knows you, sit at a desk near a few people, and ask them a question, like, is this class starting soon? and then it'll pretty much go from there.

and if you make a real fool out of yourself, always remember, pretty soon, youre going to be yeaterday's news, so dont worry.

MAKE friends, and make a lot of them. keep them all, because you never know when you'll be highly bored.. or you don't want to be lonerised in a class either

Make friends and hang out with them. Do your best. NEVER drop out. That was my mistake. Gah.

meet new people, go to more parties!
celebrate the life that you have,and the life that you live!

confidence will get you everywhere, don't be cocky though.
