Why High School Drama Was Not That Big Of A Deal

It really wasn't that big of a deal and it still wouldn't be that big of a deal today.

Why High School Drama Was Not That Big Of A Deal

In This Article:

When you are in high school, EVERYTHING is seen as the end of the world. From relationships to friendships, it all feels like it is falling apart right in front of your eyes. But trust me when I say there are bigger problems you will have to deal with.

People Who Don't Do Their Work And Get Away With It

We have all encountered someone in our lives who has been the person who always seemed to have the perfect excuse for why they were unable to hand in work and it bothered others who do the work and feel like the other person should be punished for lack of effort.

Deciding Where You Sit At Lunch

Picking a seat at lunch can feel like one of the most important decisions as a freshman on their first day because the group of people you will meet at this table could potentially be your friends for the rest of high school and social status matters... NOT! It doesn't matter who you hang out with

What People Think Of You

Worrying what people think of you has always been one of the worst parts of high school because you want to compare yourself to everyone else and worry about what others think. Just realize that you are your own person and there is nothing anyone can do to change that. Just be yourself. You will do a lot better in the long run.

Thinking Every Relationship You Will Be Your Last

High School Relationships are not meant to last. I am not saying they can't last but you need to go explore your life and become the best version of yourself before you let a guy into your life. Relationships are fun but don't make any lifelong plans immediately with that person.

The People Who Don't Study and Do Amazing on The Exam

Remember getting a test back and seeing your grade and getting mad because you studied all night for that exam and your friend who sits next to you got an A after saying she just read the material 5 minutes before the test started. Yes, you will find people like this in the real world outside of college.

When the Teacher Says Not To Do the Assignment in One Night and Someone Does

Procrastination will always affect your life in some way. But trust me, the work will show. But at the same time, you could get a B on the assignment and just be fine with it. Procrastination exists everywhere and there will always be that one person.

When Someone Goes Out of Their Way To Remind the Teacher About Homework

Oh, there was always one kid who took it upon themselves to remind the teacher of a homework assignment which most of the class did not do. That kid was in for it when gym class started, especially if playing dodgeball.

The funny thing is that people think all of this stuff is still big drama in the Adult World too. Put your big kid pants on and do what needs to be done so you can move on to the next day. Stop crying over the little things to happen in life because that won't solve any of your problems. And leave the drama behind in high school where it belongs.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
