Im only a freshman but I came down with a sleep disorder and the school sorta forced me into being homebound. I was absolutely miserable! It was weird to watch them change, get new friends, and move me one down on their topfriends day by day. I cried all the time, it was so depressing. Im not sure how to help you, but I think this is totally normal. They failed me so Im staying back a year and Im TERRIFIED of new people. Goodness!!! Just hang in there, kay? Do something nice for yourself "] [ xxDearLee's advice column | Ask xxDearLee A Question ]
MAK answered Sunday May 4 2008, 1:31 am: Well, I'm a senior in high school and I take classes at the local junior college (I have since 9th grade). And honestly, college is so much better than high school (in my opinion).
Everyone is super nice, you don't have to fear being judged, and its easy to make friends.
In college is usually when you make friends for life, meet your future spouse, develop into an adult. You'll have a blast. Keep in touch with your friends from high school.
Just remember to do your homework, STUDY, and be careful with boys. Make sure you know them as friends first before you actually start dating them. (lots of players in college, but they're usually in the party scene, so stay away from them).
Don't worry about it. College will be one of the greatest experiences of your life.

EDIT:
Well, although there's really nothing wrong with not going to college, you do have a better chance of getting a job and getting higher pay than not going to college. If you want to go into Hollywood, I'll be honest with you, it will be VERY difficult succeeding in that industry. You will have a much higher chance of succeeding if you major in something like movie production, or something related. (And trust me, there's a lot of majors out there!)

College should bring about some new and possibly better experiences than highschool. Give yourself a chance to grow. You will be fine. [ LiSaxOBaBii's advice column | Ask LiSaxOBaBii A Question ]
Graduating can be tough. I know when I did I was so afraid. I wasn't in college and I didn't I wasn't happy with the career choice I made. I was just thinking everything is about to change and here I am without any knowledge of what to do with the rest of my life. And plus all of the fun I had will be over. It seems when we are in high school that things are so good that everything is so great I never want to leave. But when I graduated I breathed a sigh or relief. No more immaturity. No more people telling me what time to come in. There's less forced structure and more independence. I can start school three years from now if I choose and be anything. I can hang out with people I like and not have to worry about what's popular in clothes boys or classes. There's way less peer pressure because people out of high school have grown up a bit. It might seem like you want it all to be the same but. When you get out there and see the vast earth around you and opportunities you think. "What the heck have I been missing." Just keep your friends close and you'll at least be able to keep some of the good memories. [ QueenofDiamonds's advice column | Ask QueenofDiamonds A Question ]
khadiya answered Saturday May 3 2008, 3:21 am: Your over reacting. If they re your friends now they should still be your friends afterwards. Just keep in touch, and still hang out like normal. You actually get to do more things and make new friends after you graduate. [ khadiya's advice column | Ask khadiya A Question ]
