1) That it's really hard to K.I.T. (Keep In Touch) with old classmates. Nowadays it's easy with facebook and all this social media, but back then social media was just getting popular and it was hard staying friends with classmates from middle school.
2) That I would be staying up until 3AM doing homework and studying at least once a week. Procrastination was my worst enemy throughout high school. If I was better at managing my time, then I probably would have done better in school.
3) Friends come and go. Somewhat related to the first thing, but throughout high school there were many people that I befriended that I saw myself being friends with in the future. However, in a lot of the cases drama happened, or things would happen so I drifted from those friends.
4) School lunch is awful. I remember freshman year I ate a school lunch almost every day. It wasn't until later that I realized the ingredients in those lunches are seriously questionable.
5) You can only make friends if you put forth the effort. For way too long I was a hermit, expecting people to come to me. When all I needed to do was take more initiative.
6) People will notice you if you've got talent. If you've got a niche for something, don't be afraid to show it off! Just don't be prideful about it.
7) Slacking just for a little bit can be very detrimental to your grades. It's harder to bring up grades than to let them slip. That's just a fact.
8) Your assignment notebook should be your best friend. I can't recount the countless times I've forgotten to do homework assignments simply because I didn't take the time to write them down.
9)There will always be someone that can be your friend. Don't be so cynical about the people at school. Open up a little and you'll find someone that you rub well with.
10) It's a jungle out there. You'll go through countless episodes of silly drama and you'll meet so many weird people.
