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.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:
