life is ruined by school and sports
Lately my life has basically been all about sports and school. A couple of years ago my life was all about going out with girls and hanging out and stuff. but since high school I got disconnected from my socialable friends. And almost all of my "sports" friends are in the same problem as me, they spend so much time in their sport and school work. I also go to an all boys school which doesnt help at all. Even though i do spend alot of time on academics and sports, its not like i dont have time to do stuff its that its been over two years now since ive done somthing with my "old" friends that i dont know what to do and how to get back into doing stuff. I feel like that when i left my old school for my new school i wanted to start over fresh, but my "start over" didnt involve doing anything outside of school and training for sports. And latley ive tried talking to this one girl i was always rly close with and took her to a dance once and lately she has been ignoring me. it feels like even when i try to do stuff with my "old friends" they have "new friends" to do stuff with. and my "new friends" are just like me. So what im asking is how can i get my friends attention. One thing i did was try to have a halloween party which was going to be huge over 500 ppl and a bunch of my old friends were going to be there so i could hang out with them, but before it happened the neighbors called my parents and it was ruined. So basically im wondering how i can kind of get their attention. I wouldnt even think about not doing sports anymore bcuz ive gotten several college sports scholarship offers from big time schools for football and track.

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
maybe instead of throwing a big party, take one weekend and try to get just your old friends to come hang out, call them in advance so they no about it and wont have plans already, go to the movies, mall, anywhere really even your house you just have to re connect with them since you have been spending all your time with sports and stuff they might feel like you just kinda abandaned them so they got new friends, just invite them over or soemthing or casually just start talking to them all again, myspace, facebook, aim.. text anything

I sorta went through the same thing. Ive been playing lacrosse my whole life, and its always been a huge part in my life. In highschool it was easier to balance friends and sports and school work because there was still a lot of time, even though i played all year. Then I went to a D1 school to play lacrosse, and my social life became lacrosse. Between practices, weight lifting, conditioning, and games i had no time to party or have fun. I love lacrosse and i always will, but i wanted that college expierence. So I switched to just playing club. I got a lot of heat about this from players and coaches, and the term "waste of talent" got thrown around alot, but it was the best decison i made. As long as Im playing lacrosse im happy, and now i have time on my hands to do other things. So you should seriously think about what you want your college expierence to be like, and ask your self "is it worth it?"
