Why High School Drama Was Not That Big Of A Deal

It really wasn't that big of a deal and it still wouldn't be that big of a deal today.

Why High School Drama Was Not That Big Of A Deal

In This Article:

When you are in high school, EVERYTHING is seen as the end of the world. From relationships to friendships, it all feels like it is falling apart right in front of your eyes. But trust me when I say there are bigger problems you will have to deal with.

People Who Don't Do Their Work And Get Away With It

We have all encountered someone in our lives who has been the person who always seemed to have the perfect excuse for why they were unable to hand in work and it bothered others who do the work and feel like the other person should be punished for lack of effort.

Deciding Where You Sit At Lunch

Picking a seat at lunch can feel like one of the most important decisions as a freshman on their first day because the group of people you will meet at this table could potentially be your friends for the rest of high school and social status matters... NOT! It doesn't matter who you hang out with

What People Think Of You

Worrying what people think of you has always been one of the worst parts of high school because you want to compare yourself to everyone else and worry about what others think. Just realize that you are your own person and there is nothing anyone can do to change that. Just be yourself. You will do a lot better in the long run.

Thinking Every Relationship You Will Be Your Last

High School Relationships are not meant to last. I am not saying they can't last but you need to go explore your life and become the best version of yourself before you let a guy into your life. Relationships are fun but don't make any lifelong plans immediately with that person.

The People Who Don't Study and Do Amazing on The Exam

Remember getting a test back and seeing your grade and getting mad because you studied all night for that exam and your friend who sits next to you got an A after saying she just read the material 5 minutes before the test started. Yes, you will find people like this in the real world outside of college.

When the Teacher Says Not To Do the Assignment in One Night and Someone Does

Procrastination will always affect your life in some way. But trust me, the work will show. But at the same time, you could get a B on the assignment and just be fine with it. Procrastination exists everywhere and there will always be that one person.

When Someone Goes Out of Their Way To Remind the Teacher About Homework

Oh, there was always one kid who took it upon themselves to remind the teacher of a homework assignment which most of the class did not do. That kid was in for it when gym class started, especially if playing dodgeball.

The funny thing is that people think all of this stuff is still big drama in the Adult World too. Put your big kid pants on and do what needs to be done so you can move on to the next day. Stop crying over the little things to happen in life because that won't solve any of your problems. And leave the drama behind in high school where it belongs.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
