Alright, so I'm in my second year of university now, and I do have a little bit of reflection to give... namely, the bigger picture.
Highschool in a nutshell:
Grade 9 = have fun, make friends, get used to high school.
Grade 10= have fun with friends you made in grade 9. slack in your classes because you think it's way more work, and that it counts for nothing.
Grade 11 = realize grade 9 and 10 were easy as anything, and you need to work for it now. Kick yourself in the butt for not paying attention to grade 10 math, because you thought it was easy then. Get in a fight with a few friends from grade 9 and make new ones. Have some fun.
Grade 12 = realize that grade 11 was a joke. Spaz out about marks. Try hard. Get stressed. realize that it isn't that bad. relax, have fun. Stress out again when you fail a test. See a friend have a breakdown. Have a friend realize that they don't want to be a vet, but rather a musician. Realize yourself that what you wanted to do 2 years ago isn't even close to what you want to do now. Stress some more. Question where the money will come from for college. Realize a friend you had in grade 9 is a drug dealer now. Get a hard case of senioritis; stop caring about schoolwork. Relax. Have the most fun you've ever had in high school. Get lower marks than you had originally intended to get, and worry about it only until a friend comes along and tells you about a party. Kick back, and have the best summer of your high school life.
First year university: realize that high school, as a whole, was a complete and total joke.
Hope that lays it out for you
