High School is the best time of your life trust me, It is the only time in your life that you can do stupid things and get away with them. Enjoy everything that high school has to offer you because, when college comes you won't be able to get away with not doing homework, you won't be able to hang out with your friends every single day, and you will realize how easy you had it in High School.
1. Make friends.
As a Freshmen your scared, and it's okay to be scared you but having friends through high school will make the next four years you spend there the best time of your life. Also make sure that you keep those friends because in the end you need them even if you think that you don't.
2. Join Things.
Doing different sports and joining different clubs will help your experience in high school be better than it is. yeah it might be time consuming but in the end it will be worth it.
3. Go to the Football, Baseball, Basketball games.
Going to all the sports events with your friends will be some of the best memories that you make in High School, because when college hits your going to look at pictures and realize how much you miss those times supporting your school.
4. Don't spend everyday after school working.
When being in High School ya its nice to work and have money, but don't miss out on opportunities to have fun on Friday nights because once college hits you won't have the chance to call of work to go out and have fun.
5. Don't spend time on hating the school that you go to.
If all you say is how much you hate this place or how much you can't wait to get out of here, quit saying that because when its all over you will realize how much you regret it.
6. Stop caring about what others think about you.
After High school you realize that what you wear, who you talk to, what you do during your weekends, doesn't matter to anyone but you. Don't try to impress anyone its not worth it, it never will be worth it.
7. It's OK to fail an exam.
Do not get discouraged when you slip on grades in High school, its better to learn from your mistakes now then it does when you go to college.
8. Don't ignore your parents.
During your 4 years of high school, your in that phase where your parents might not matter to you as much as your friends do. Don't hate your parents because when its time to pack up your things and go to college your friends aren't going to be moving you in and saying goodbye, its your parents who have been there for you your whole life.
9. Don't bully other people.
You might think its a cool thing to do now but you don't realize how much your hurting someone else, and you realize that you get nothing out of it as you grow older.
10. Chill out with the make up girls.

13. It doesn't matter if your dating the hottest boy or girl in school.

Your ACT score is just a number it does not show how good you are in school
15. Talk to your teachers.
Getting close to your teachers is a good thing because if you need recemondation letters you know who to go to.
