Spritzie Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Not very many in my group of friends in middle school dated, but most were very interested in it. I was too heavily involved in band. By 8th grade, I had band for both my electives. I was on the Yearbook staff. Then by HS, where dating was a much bigger deal, I was dealing with other things. But it ended up being a good thing. I saved myself a lot of heart-break that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 In my opinion, relationships are like sprinkles on a cupcake. Friendships are the icing and education is the actual cake. Make sure you have more of those things, since they're more important and longer lasting :yes: This applies for middle/high school people, of course :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 My school has none of those activities. Yes, I know, my school sucks and I can't wait to get out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephé Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Ah, high school feels so different. *breathes in bad deodorant filled air* Haha, I just came back from a school camp. :P It wasn't as fun as I expected (thanks to some personal issues), however I did have a bit of fun taking some little insight to the year 13 camp leaders who were looking after us, and just mingling around with some new people. It feels kind of awkward entering high school, probably one of the biggest steps when it comes to making the biggest decisions... although I shouldn't really be explaining this since most of you guys have already gone through the feeling. :P Most entertaining part would probably have to be the senior girls and some junior girls gossiping in my cabin who were talking all about the year 9 and social and 'hot' guys. :P (I was pretending to be asleep xD) To be honest, I'm more of a 'look from a distance about all that relationship stuff' kind of person, although one of my friends (who is very nice) secretly (although its pretty obvious) likes this somehow cute looking guy, haha. I might help her out with that. XD I am so going to eat that cake Will. :P *has applied for 4 out of 7 school councils this year* Although I'm not sure if I'll get a stomach ache at the end from all that 'cake'.

CAV of Gang Green Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 At that point, people begin to call you gay. ...and other terms not allowed on TDN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephé Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I wish I could help with your experience CAV. :/ People have a choice whether or not they wish to start dating and stuff like that, there's nothing wrong with waiting around for the right time. ^^ Yes, but when your in a middle school were everything has to do with pimps, making out, and thoughts of sex, what are you suppose to do when your the only kid that hasn't even been hugged by someone? Well, should you be pressured into following those sorts of things? Right now, you have a whole lot of choice and freedom as a kid, use it by making the right choices and not doing anything you'll regret. It must be hard avoiding that 'crowd' who are hassling you, but to be honest, I think that most of them are insecure themselves. My school has none of those activities. Yes, I know, my school sucks and I can't wait to get out. School is a place for learning. Hard to believe when you're around a difficult group of people, but most of the time you should take the chance of having an education with both hands, it'll be worth it in the end. :) Now, no one ever cruises through school like every thing's perfect for them, but keep your mind open for the times ahead.

Unstream Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Dude really, you just need to care less. Honestly, five years from now, none of this will matter. You'll be going to college or getting a job by then, and you probably won't see any of your friends again. And unless you're very likely, you won't have a romantic relationship by then either. You may never see any of the people in your school again after then. Keep that in mind, because it's important to keep your priorities set in order. It's the truth, though a frank one that not many people in school like to face. Always remember what's important at this point in life, and that's your education and preparing yourself for your future. Relationships don't matter. Being called gay or whatever doesn't matter.

Captain Awesome Pants Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 CAV. Don't even start about being called gay and stuff when I'm around. Because has it even happened to you? Most of my school thinks I'm a lesbian. Every day is annoying because people comment on it. I've had people come up to me and ask me to my face if I was really gay. And it's got nothing to do with me being in a relationship or not. People will think what they think, regardless of your relationship status.

Swim freak Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 CAV what you should do is just focus on your school work and forget all the mean people. In a couple of years when you have a really good job and a relationship that's even better than one would of had in middle school or high school you'll be really happy. You just have to wait for that time to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honeycrisp Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Agreed. Patience is key. In school I was always in the shadows of my more popular and outgoing friends. But now I'm in college and good things are coming to me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Ryan Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Lol, I had a good day on FRiday. I got 3 dollars at breakfast during school to go around to each table and yell "I'M A NERD!". First time was free though. Bad part of it though was that just when I was starting to like the nickname "Squirrel boy" it got changed to "Nerd kid" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I'm exhausted today. I didn't get to sleep last night until about 2am, because we found out my mother-in-law was in the hospital, and she's in Florida. Then I woke up at 5am this morning. And now I have a 12 hour work day. But hopefully, it'll get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritzie Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 The only time we really called anyone anything other than their name in school, was Middle School. And everyone in my group of friends then, got a nickname that had some sort of meaning. (By 8th grade, I think there was around 12 of us) I've had so many nicknames over the years. In HS, the only kid we gave a nickname for something he did, was a kid we knew from band in middle school. We saw him working at the Taco Bell in the mall. So he became Taco Tim/ Taco Boy. :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losorlaugh Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Coming off school (coz it's a totaly boring subject..)

Swim freak Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Today, I went to a swim meet... and dropped 2 seconds on my race!!!!!! This is a big deal since I haven't been able to break my time all this year. The only nickname I've really received was something short for my name. like Jules or JuJu (don't ask I have no idea where it came from!)
