Mine were mostly good, but not perfect. Wasn't with the "in crowd", but not an outsider either. My graduating class was very strange in that most of us all got along pretty well. Sure there were cliques, but for a class that had over 600 students, there was virtually no friction and no rival groups who couldn't stand each other. It was, in retrospect, pretty unusual I guess. Or then again, I may not remember any negative stuff since it has been 36 years since I graduated.

Mix bag for me, I just moved to a different country which was both exiting and terrifying at the same time. I made some great friends and met some beautiful girls but at the same time i had trouble adjusting and things at home weren't always great to say the least. but overall I do have fun memories of the period 1994-1999 along with the bad.

I voted "Loved Them. The Best." I did really well academically during my high school years, and made some friends. I got along with most of my teachers, and I graduated within the top 20 of my class.

Long time gone and not missed. I seldom think of those days.

I'm still in high school  It sucks. Maybe looking back later in life I'll miss it, but right now I can't wait for it to end. I don't have much to complain about either. I just hate it because I'm an angsty teen, I guess. |

Mostly bad with a few good memories, but those few good memories really made up for all the bad and traumatizing stuff I had to go through. 11 grade was probably to this day one of the best years of my life, but 10th grade was literally the worst year of my life. But if it wasn't for my 10 grade experience then I wouldn't have gotten to experience what I did in 11 grade. Thats why Im still grateful for even the bad that happened to me in high school.

Even mix for me. 9th and 10th grade were horrible, just a continuation of my lousy junior high experience. School was great up until about 7th grade. 11th and 12th grade were great. Especially when I got my driver's license and my first car. One memory I had from 9th grade that was really bad was we had a very old school (built in separate buildings over a period of 40 years as the town grew). They were called respectively the 100 hall, 200 hall, etc. up to 500. The 100 hall was the oldest and was built right before WW2 which replaced a wood frame one room school house (no kidding). I was in 9th grade roughly 1990-1991 so that tells you how old it was even then. In May, right before the end of the school year, the air conditioning system went out in our English class room (all of the rooms were retrofitted with a large window unit type A/C) so we had to open the windows. The school had the bright idea to re-tar the roofs that same week so not only was it close to 100 degrees outside (Gulf Coast Texas), but we had the constant smell of tar in the classroom.
It was cool being in a fairly small town though and knowing just about everyone. Our graduating class was about 250 so it wasn't tiny, but not nearly as large as a lot of the schools a dozen or so miles away (closer to Houston). I was never really bullied outside of in 9th grade (by seniors of course) and marching band practice was the worst but for some reason I stuck it out all 4 years of high school. I had a particularly sadistic trumpet section leader who loved picking on underclassmen. The guy that replaced him the next year (my 10th grade year) wasn't much better.
But, becoming a junior and getting a car transformed my social life. Funny how that works out. I actually was able to get dates and go out on my own. Hang out at the local "make out" spot and listen to some tunes with a good looking girl. Senior year went about the same. Prom was actually pretty fun even though I hated dancing. I gave it my best shot though and the night turned out good.
I really enjoyed college much more than high school though. Fun classes (outside of college algebra, the professor hated me for some reason). haha.

I guess an even mix of good and bad.

I would say the worst with the exception of a few good memories. I was in high school when my parents abandoned me after I came out to them and my best friend's (my Wifey) parents wouldn't let us see each other anymore and I went through depression and wanted to kill myself and if it wasn't for my Sister who has been more like a Mum to me than my own Mum ever was I doubt I would be here today 'cause I couldn't handle it and I spent a lot of days crying and just wanting to be alone.  That's awful. Sorry that happened to you. I hope things have gotten better for you. |
