High school, like college, your first job, your first girlfriend, moving out of your parents home, etc., is a transitional phase. You will see, hear, touch, taste, and experience things you've never seen, heard, touched, or experienced before. More than likely you'll probably experience a few things you never even knew existed before. It will probably be a complete culture shock. Very few people, that I've heard of, come out of high school the same person they were when they went in. You'll probably try to follow the various trends that emerge to some extent. You'll probably adapt bits and pieces of peopleÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s personalities to your own. Or at times you might do the exact opposite. But whatever you do, remain flexible. IÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢m not implying you should compromise your integrity or forsake your principles, but high school is one of the prime times for learning (both textbook wise and about yourself) and it would be a shame if you were to waste it due to some inflexible stubbornness. Constant, honest evaluation of yourself will serve you well. You have to remember that practically every problem you encounter, every doubt you have, every thought that nags at your self-confidence; everybody else is experiencing them too or has already experienced them. You will make so many mistakes that you probably wonÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t be able to remember them all. Learn from them. The more mistakes you make and the faster you learn from them, the faster your progress as a person will be. DonÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t let any singular event (like a mistake) define you as a person. Enjoy high school, learn from it and view it as the breeding ground of your personality. But most importantly, whatever you do, donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t shoot anybody. Seriously.

I use no forums anymore.

In Mother Country, we eat girls we like.

Never eat the yellow snow. Never talk to men who wear dresses.

I find the original rule of thumb to be the most useful: Don't beat your woman with anything wider than your thumb. I don't know why that is, I guess if you beat her with something small enough the bruises won't last as long.

HOW THE HELL DO YOU KILL A ZOMBIE WITH SALT????

If you're gonna die, come over to my house and die. Free dinner for a week at least.

"There is no spoon."

I don't. Let's eat him.

More flamage, less lockage, and I think we need some kind of system where users can vote to have topics unlocked. I'm not exactly sure how it would work but I'm sure we could all think of something.

*edit* Meh-anybody who's not a complete attention seeking ḫ̫̉̉r.

You're the only person I know who can take something as boring as buying a game console and turn it into a story interesting enough for me to waste 10 minutes reading it.

I'd really just like to say let him, but if not that then don't do anything drastic. For example, I had a friend who was suicidal and another of my friends called the cops, told his parents, called his pastor, I mean called every freaken person he knew. Now everybody watches him (the suicidal guy) all the time, his parents make him take medication, everybody at our school knows it and his social life has gone down the tubes and he doesn't want to be friends with anybody any more. The worst part is, I get the feeling he's probably going to get over it in a year or two and when he does he's practically screwed until he moves somewhere since everybody that knows him has it implanted in their heads that he's some kind of freak. I can't tell you exactly what to do but whatever it is try to work it out with as few people as possible.

I don't know if sign language is different but it seems to be a language just like any other.

I'd like to be murdered for my beliefs, maybe even tortured, ala Mel Gibson style. I believe that no matter which way you die, if your death is preceded by a gradual descent into insanity, it's always going to have a more "mysterious" "awe-inspiring" appeal to it.
