High School did teach me something!

 A few days ago, my high school career came to a close, and i began to reflect on it. I began to think about what i have learned... Did i learn anything? Then i made a list.. and i learned way more than i thought: Some funny, and some serious, and some incredible.

1. Don't judge people- it's not your place.
2. Love each other deeply
3. Don't expect things out of people-they just might surprise you and go the opposite way that you think they would.
4. Dream on- You have your whole life ahead of you, don't limit yourself.
5. Don't care what other people think- if you do this, you will find yourself having less fun. I definitely had to learn this one, and in learning this, i found 2 of the best friends i have ever had.
6. Don't take life too seriously- have fun.
7. People watch and take note of what you do (especially if you're known as a leader).
8. Don't be afraid to shine out of the group. People will take notice and they will admire you for it.
9. Don't be too good for the underclassmen. They need you, and you might could impact them more than you think.
10. Go with the flow! (especially with dating) - if you stress too much it will only create unneccessary drama.
11. Don't cry at school (especially for girls)- you will get swarmed.
12. School counselors aren't good for anything.
13. Dress code is only important the first 9 weeks of school. (especially if you're a senior).
14. Don't hide your talents.
15. Find that one person you can confide in, and make sure to tell someone when you are having a bad day, it makes the bad days a lot less bad.
16. Don't let other people's opinions affect what you do (unless what youre doing is stupid of course)
17. Don't give advice unless asked.
18. 2 or 3 close friends is a lot better than 100 acquantances ... hands down.
19. Be on the attendance lady's good sides.
20. Run away from Mrs. Zartman and Mrs. Mcabee... especially when you're outta dress code..

The number one thing i learned is how fast time flies. On the first day of freshman year, they told us that we would be Seniors before we knew it, and we all just kinda laughed, but it's so true.

Time flies when you're having fun i guess...;)
