What're you going to do when you finish high school, Orangeman? Go to college, I hope? You're a smart young man with lots of potential.

Thanks , and yes I did plan on going on college. My grades arent too great right now but I'm just hoping the colleges will notice my potential (and even more, my money) and let me in and get a higher education (for a good paying job of course) lol.

no need to worry about that if you have money you are in and unless you are trying to get into a really really good school a c average will do the trick although once you start college youll want to keep the grades up trust me

I went to community college for 2 years before I went to university. I liked that, you don't have to have good grades in high school and you don't have to take the SAT...and you save money..and you can still end up in university.

Shit man, I turn 17 in like 5 months... Atleast its not 18. I'm like...startin' to worry a lil about this "growin' up" thing. I just can't imagine myself in a job. I'mma try and not worry too much untill next year. Then I'll look at colleges and decide how I'm going to do things. I don't know though, next year I'll probably be just as clueless as to what I'll do.

Lol yeah, I understand you to the fullest but I just realized that I thought of being in high school as much as I'm thinking about being grown. So now come to think of it, it might not be as bad as I think it is. Sure it might be financially but that should be about it .

Orange, my best advice to you is to enjoy high school to the fullest extent that you can. Once its over, its over, and you can't go back. I'm guessing your a sophomore this year? This is when shit starts to get fun, and then junior and senior year are the best. As far as your grades go, I really wouldn't worry TOO much about it, but if you can improve, do so. The main things colleges look at are last term junior year and first term senior year grades. Also extracurricular activities and all that. You can also do an 'on-the-spot' interview for some colleges, in which they evaluate you in person and not just on your application. Turning 18 is good, because you will start to be treated like an adult, which is never a bad thing. I'll let ya know how it is to be 21 next summer lol. Hang in there.

yeah really..like sometimes i wish i were young again and everything would be cool
you know like not having a worry in the world about growing up or anything

[orangeman]

Lol ok, and yeah. Actually I'm suppose to be a junior but...y'know how things can get .

Last term of junior year? Good, I'm doing fine now, but that will give me time to make sure I'm doing all I can do. I'm a junior this year, starting the year off not to bad, I think I have 1 C, and thats the lowest. God I hate math. I'm a lil worried about my grades cause I can't consistently keep them up. I had an A the first half the year of geometry, the second it started dropping, but I still passed easy. My grades tend to vary a lot over time. I think I just get bored after awhile and that high grade seems like it would last longer.

And yeah, I SOOO miss being young and not having many cares in the world. Or any at all when I was real young. Only worry ever was school, but in highschool its a much bigger worry. Damn, I wanna go chill on my rope swing, ride my bike over the jump at the end of the street, or go make fires in the woods with my neighbors. Ah, I miss being a pyro.
