Q: I will go back to school in august and I am going to high school for the first time. Kind of nervous about it and ugh, I want to get it over with. Can you guys give me some "high school experience" stories or tips or something? I think I am really gonna hate it. Is it as big of a deal as it is on tv and stuff, cause I always hear how high school was like a crazy time...
Anyway, any advice?
Thanks, "hsh8tr",

Going into high school is indeed a milestone for a young person. However, just because something is a milestone doesn't mean it has to be scary or traumatic.
For example, years ago, when I was going into high school, I initially looked at it as a fresh start and a chance to meet new people and make new friends. Sure, it's natural to be nervous but anything new in life usually has that effect. After all, a lot of times when people have "butterflies in their stomach" it really stems from excitement.
It has not very much at all like they make it out to be on TV in most cases. Shows and pop culture tend to blow it out of proportion.
Actually, being older for just starting out in high school might even be a benefit for you. Some of the other students might look up to you like a big sister of sorts.
Don't stress yourself out, I'm pretty confident that things will work out fine.
