  1. High school is not just about learning but that is a big part. What high school is also about, that people sometimes overlook, is that it's about leaning to be an adult. Personally, if I got straight A's through all of high school but didn't learn anything about people or how to function in the real world, I would consider those four years failures.

  2. READ THE FUCKING ART OF WAR READ IT READ IT OMFG READ IT. It can be applied to ANY situation ever in your whole life. Here is a link: http://www.amazon.com/Art-War-Sun-Tzu/dp/161382288X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1397173800&sr=1-1&keywords=the+art+of+war It will be the best 8 bucks you spend in your life.

  3. It's better to take classes you care about. An A that cannot help you at all (because you will not work in that profession) is worse for you than a B- that will serve you forever.

  4. If you want to switch languages, do it now. I did not pay attention to anything in middle school Italian classes, am taking it freshman year, and averaging about a C+. Luckily Frosh year doesn't count towards GPA at my school, and I made the decision to switch to Spanish, which I feel I have a good chance of succeeding in.

  5. Learn from your mistakes, your friend's mistakes, and your sibling's mistakes. Doing something and failing at it once is bad, but you learn. Use the info. you pick up along the way to make everything you do better later.

  6. Don't use drugs and alcohol to deal with your problems. I won't tell you what you should and should not do for pleasure, but you should not that getting drunk/high is not ever a permanent fix to a problem and is an unhealthy way of dealing with things.

  7. Counselors are friends! You can go to one for advice on most matters pertaining to high school, and later, college applications.

  8. Lastly, have the best time you can. If you are academically successful, but not happy, does your life have any virtue?

    Good Luck!
