Back to school - Advice for high school!

Hi everyone,
I know that a lot of people are going to high school this year, so that's why I want to tell you guys my advice!

1. Stay yourself. This is very important. Don't change yourself just because you want to please someone. You have to stay yourself because it's better to be hated for who you are than to be loved for who you are not. People are going to find out if you're going to act extremly different. If you're going to act like someone you're not, you are going to give up. Maybe not soon, but later. Trust me, it's better to be yourself.

2. Do your homework! That was very hard for me, haha :-). But seriously. do your homework. It's a lot easier if you understand what the teacher is talking about. It's also a lot easier with tests, finals and exams because you already know something about it. I never did my homework when I first went to high school. Just do your homework because it's the best you can do.

3. Make friends. Especially if you don't know anyone. Just say hi to someone who seems nice. Don't shy away. High school is a lot easier with friends :-)

4. Have fun. Remember that school isn't only about learning. Just have fun! They say that your high school years are the best of your life! So use them wisely haha :-).

5. If you are getting bullied remember that people only bully for 3 reasons: they think it's 'funny', they want to be popular or they are jealous. It's NEVER your fault, it's theirs. Just keep your head up and focus on other things like your hobbies or school. Remember that you're not always going to stay with the people who bully you. In 6/5/4 or maybe even 3 years(if you graduate early) you're done with high school! Stay strong and keep your head up!
