High school.

I used to love it.
Why is it now that I can't wait to get out?

What I have learned about high school so far is that kids are brutal. I even catch myself conforming sometimes and it just kills me. We accept our cruel behavior toward others without even realizing it.

High school has taught me that girls are stupid. They get a boyfriend, give them everything, and ditch their friends. Boy dumps girl, girl cries and becomes desperate for love, and then boy changes his mind and the vicious cycle starts all over again, sometimes from the other end as well. Girls that dress up or down just want attention. The girls that give you the time of day to listen are the girls that you want as your friends. The girls that can laugh their ass off at a talking hand or that you can have hour long talks about super heroes deserve to stick around.

High school has taught me that boys that wear letter man jackets or hockey jerseys are mostly jackasses who only want boobs and beer. Boys that wear super hero shirts and silly comb overs are sweet hearts and deserve more than what they get. Boys either want sex or friendship. Luckily, I found friendship.

High school has taught me relationships are stupid and do not last.

High school has taught me that people make mistakes. Either you deny it or you accept it and move forward. Accepting it and moving forward is the best thing to do because that pain can go away or atleast become enough to bare. Continually denying it makes it worse and eventually explodes and bleeds all over and is anything but beautiful.

High school has taught me that the work you put into a friendship can be thrown away in less than three seconds and then five minutes later, someone is begging to start over.

High school has taught me that teachers are your friends. Most of my teachers have taught me that trusting someone is okay and to ask silly dumb questions helps you grow as a person. They have shown me the world and how to become who you are and I'll never be able to thank them enough for that.

High school has taught me that it isn't over yet.
