I went to a state college and after years of off and on part time work, a transfer, and finally managing going full time for a few years the freakin' profs almost went on strike during my last semester...i was ready to kick some serious ass if they messed up my graduation

High school for me was just a holding point untill I matured enough to be released into the wild

I don't miss by any means but then agoin I don't depise it

I had some good memorys from high school ( mostly get drunk and smoking with my friends)

and I have some bad memories like getting the shit kicked out of me by some 6' somthing 250 lb monstor for throwing a green bean at him in the lunch hall.

ahh the memories

I know how you feal, even though i'm only a sophomore in high school. This year kinda feals like my senior year b/c school gets out in 6 weeks, and then in August i'm off for the Netherlands for an entire year, so it feals kinda like this is my senior year, even though i'm comin back to the states after my year abroad and will finish my senior year here in good old Missouri.

hey simply_angelic, yea i'm doin an exchange. I'll be goin to the Netherlands for my junior year of high school. Sophomore year is almost over , and then I leave for the Netherlands in August. I only have about 20 weeks left I think, haven't really been keepin track, but since my b-day is next week, I know how long away it is until I leave. I can't wait, and yea Ryder if you count down the days, it makes time go by awhole lot slower, trust me. I've been waitin since last May, and I know you've been waitin longer, but countin down the days in the beginnin made it seem like I was never goin to leave. It was like I was takin it day by day by day. But then I stopped, and time has just seemed to be flyin by for me. Because now my b-day is next week, I leave for Canada the day after school gets out (6 more weeks) then get back, and wait about another 2 months, then i'm off for the Netherlands , i'm really psyced (sp?) about leavin. The realizatioin is just now startin to set in on my now. That I wont see my parents or any of my family or friends for almost 12 whole months. But oh well, the experience is totally goin to be worth it.
