Enjoy your High School Experiences

When I was still in high school (I am currently on summer vacation), the most common conversation that would circulate around my school would either be “I can’t wait until spring break” or “I can’t wait until summer holiday”. I can’t blame the people who have said those things, in all seriousness, I agreed to some extent.

But if you asked me about what I considered about the people who were just pacing and obsessing over the next the break or holiday, I candidly think that they’re all wasting their time at school, and just focusing on the wrong things.

The majority of people that go to high school perceive it as something negative or a somewhat drag that they have to partake in everyday. But on contrary to what that fraction of people think, more optimistically I think that high school is a great place not only for learning, but also for making great friends and creating imposing memories that will still be remembered as if it were just yesterday.

What I’m trying to essentially put out there is to ENJOY your life in high school. Enjoy having fun with the friends you made. Enjoy learning new and fascinating things. Enjoy being taught by the teachers you’ve had. Enjoy all the enemies you have stood up to. Enjoy all of the cool fun projects you’ve done. Enjoy the good cafeteria food. ENJOY. ENJOY. ENJOY.

Because if you don’t enjoy your pleasurable times high school, you’re going to unquestionably regret it in the future. And since you were so hell-bent on getting high school over with, you forgot about the more enjoyable moments you could’ve had.

Please, to all of you high school students out there don’t think high school is a dark and bad place. Embrace the good moment you have had  or going to have and please don’t RUSH! J

Trust No one. Rely on Yourself, and only Yourself.

Trust No One. Take this as a word of advice. I learnt this the hard way.

I realized shortly after the 2 fruitful years I’ve spent in high school, that I can trust no one, only myself. It’s fact that no one truly has your back in high school – it’s basically an everyman for himself free for all, and that’s the cold hard truth.

That is why we need to learn in high school, and also in areas like the workplace, to rely on one’s self.

The genuine reason why I decided to write about this topic is that when I went into high school I thought that my friends would have my back or provide the support when I truly needed it – but I couldn’t even trust them. What I didn’t know was that in reality, people can be so cold as to turn their backs on you in the click of your fingers.

If you think you have someone that you can rely on to help you, to support you and have your back, think again. If you deeply reflect about the previous statement, you’ll understand the only person that can do that all is yourself.

Being independent is something that is particularly hard especially in situations in high school, but it can definitely be overcome. Relying on yourself is something so key, it will benefit hugely on a long term.

So hopefully from this you’ll learn something new, and give you a reality check. Take my advice hoping that it will help you in future endeavors.
