I haz a sad, guys...

I just realized this: I'M A JUNIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL.
I'm still a kid, but I'm an old kid. Everything from my childhood is gone, and I'm halfway through the best years of my life.

I finally start enjoying my life, and it's just going by faster... Why does time have to keep moving?

You're way way to young to be thinking in this way.... Also the d and the z in the keyboard are pretty far apart..

I guess I'm not the only HS Junior here and Supermans is right you're to young to be thinking that way

A little off-topic but, to your sig. yes I do wish my Camaro was one of 481 but I do have a Z that's one of 13 so i guess it's ok

Don't do drugs, take your vitamins, don't screw around, and don't look up to and try to emulate the Need for Speed actors and you'll be alright..

Hahaha, I feel you man, I really do. I'm in college, but I realized by my late junior year in high school that the best years of my life, the last bit of my childhood, is almost at an end. I still miss those good old days of high school and elementary-intermediate days, but I must realize that I still have much more years to come. Life doesn't have to get boring and dull after high school. You should see that too. You can do whatever you what to do. We all get old, but that doesn't mean that you have to stop being young. It's good that you value your childhood, but yes, you shouldn't dwell on these thoughts for long, because you'll end up missing and reminiscing those days while your life passes you by. Instead you should look to the future, hope for the best, and plan for the best that's yet to come.

Don't waste it. So many people say "If I could do it all over again"

You can.

Stop worrying about it. Sure the best days of your childhood may be coming to an end, but the best days of your adulthood are soon to come. It doesn't mean you can't still have some fun. Try being out of high school for a few years, then ya start to look back and go wow.

Halfway through the best years of your life? Not even CLOSE! I'm 48 and it keeps getting better! If school is the best part of your life, then you need to start WORKING! School PREPARES you for the good parts in life. Suck it up and learn all you can.

Enjoy it. I'm heading off to college this fall and I'm starting to get those "If only I could do blah blah blah one more time" thoughts.

Keep your grades up, don't do anything stupid, and spend a lot of time with your friends, because chances are you won't see them very often after next year.

Enjoy college for that matter. Graduating in Dec. then it's off to the real world. Oddly enough I even get the "If I.." stuff about college. To be honest, these years are the best, not HS.

So forget HS and the ZOMGDRAMA! associated with it. The College years will be those that you will most often look back on first.. (unless you're one of those HS football guys that keeps trying to relive his 'glory days' at age 45. )

If high school sports was the best part of your life, you have some serious introspection that needs done. I've seen a lot of washed-up has-beens wishing they were still in high school. Me? I'm having a great time almost every day! Great friends, great job, great life. I make a difference in this world. My radios help keep America safe!
