What is High School?

High school. The time we all try to grow up, then wish we had our innocence back. It's staying up late to finish endless amounts of homework. Coffee fa dayz. Having endless amounts of heart to hearts with your best friends. Orange Leaf dates.It's first loves. Heartbreaks. First kisses. Learning to drive. Stepping out of your comfort zone. It's getting hurt so many times that you start to wonder if you will ever find your Prince Charming. It's going for a drive with your three best friends jamming to Taylor Swift with the top down. Fights and makeups.Wannabe sluts and actual sluts. Football games.  Boys who break your heart and girls who play them. Pointless drama. Prom. Finding out who you are and who you want to become. Giving into peer pressure. Getting drunk but having your best friend hold your hair back. Sneaking out.Getting backstabbed and feeling betrayed. It's forcing a smile on your face until people actually believe your happy. It's wishing bad things onto people out of anger. It's jealousy and envy. Gossiping. Feeling so lost but then realizing you're never alone. It's hope for a happy and successful future. It's learning and discovering new things about others and yourself. It's about hurting but still trying. Getting up after you have been knocked down multiple times. The place where you are expected to be an adult but treated like a child. Finding a way to get the answers to the test. Pop quizzes. New people. New challenges. New fears. Social media. It's about trying to learn to live in the moment. But most of all it's trying to remain true to yourself in a world that is constantly trying to change you.
High school in one word is: OVERRATED
