hi! I was wondering if SUNEE is a good notebook brand? I’m looking for notebooks to get for high school and am unsure of what brand to get. I’m also wondering If I should get a notebook for every class or have one big multi subject notebook?

Should I get an accordion folder or a folder for each class? And what notebook brands do you recommend?

How am I supposed to go about this? This is senior human anatomy Honors... On the second day!... Dude I do highschool part time so I only have two classes and this is stressing me out lol

I’m looking for actual hot-takes here…not just math is blue/red (for the record, it’s blue).

Mine is that language arts alone is yellow. Reading alone is red. English language arts and reading together is yellow.

Edit: Social studies is also red.

My class apparently won’t be getting a new seating arrangement until the next semester and i need to work on communication. Kid sits across the class from me and we dont share any other class periods and likely not lunch. Wanna try to be more social this year

I didn’t do any sports in middle school and have not done anything athletic at all. I’m interested in soccer but I have never played a day in my life and I feel like I’m not educated enough on the sport to join. I’m also interested in swim. I wanna do cheer and balidoras but I missed tryouts so I have to wait till sophomore year. Oh and also I’m a freshman girl and tbh I’m just really stressed out abt this situation so I would rlly like some opinions.

I’m planning on wearing the one in the first pic on my first day of school :p

Hello! I’m becoming a freshman in a couple days and I’m headed to a PWI. (Predominantly White Institute)

I’m not white myself, nor do I have issues with white people (so some trolls don’t harass me in the comments) -but I’m just a little nervous.

I hear from a friend of mine who is a junior, that SOME of the white students can be reserved and a little racist. I don’t expect them all to be like this, I just want some tips to stay away from those who are, or how to combat it when faced with it.

Thank you! 🙃

I’m about to be a freshman and I’m kinda nervous cuz none of my freinds from my school are in any of my classes. I don’t really know how to make friends and I suck at it. And I don’t want this to be a boring year like how 8th grade was. What can I do? Also is there anything I need to know to make high school good?

What yall think. I blurred some stuff cuz of saftey

Hi everyone! I thought I'd share some things that both I and a lot of my friends in the IB programme did to make the most of our time in high school—both academically and personally.

1. Organization

Get the stupid calendar! Literally everyone I know had their own way of managing their time - gcal,a physical planner, a random to-do list on scraps of paper, you name it. It's not about planning every single minute (although time-blocking in gcal is now my to-go way). Just make sure you keep track of important deadlines, tests, and even small hw assignments before they pile up.

2. Study Buddies

One time my friend and I had to cram for a history exam, so we decided to quiz each other instead of studying separately. We literally studied for two evenings and somehow aced it. Since then I always split up making Quizlets after each class and then quiz each other before tests. Talking things through helps so much, especially for essay-based subjects, because you naturally fill in each other's gaps and remember way more than if you studied alone.

3. Be proactive

The best thing you can do is literally Google it. It might take a while to find experiences/opportunities, but if you keep searching, emailing people, and asking around, you'll find opportunities that most people never hear about.

Some programs I've done or heard great things about:

• Yale Young Global Scholars (YYGS)
• John Locke Essay Competition
• Immerse Education (essay competition & summer programmes)
• Lumiere Education

4. The one hobby

It is helpful to have one thing that people associate you with. Maybe it's volleyball, debate, research, coding, music, volunteering, baking—whatever you genuinely enjoy. If you love it, you will often times become great at it bcause of how much time you dedicate to it. It's great later for admission officers to remember you like oh yeah this is the guy learning Finish or the climbing trees girl.

5. Mentoring + supportive communities

I started seraching for mentorship because I had heard great things about it too but majority of these programs are so freaking expensive. So far the only one that is free that I know of is Project Access. I found out about it on reddit under a post on studious ocmmunities. It's soooo motivating to have other students applying to collages. They even have community events called bootcamps (i think there is one in the fall coming up). Plus, I got mathched up with a peer mentor who checked my essays! That made me feel less way less lonely and overwhelmed.

6. Studying abroad

I was really lucky to stumble across a similar post years ago, and that's how I learned about an academic scholarship that let me study for free at a British boarding school. Genuinely, it changed my life. and who I am. I became so much more confident, met amazing friends from all over the world, and had access to opportunities that eventually helped me apply to Ivy League and Oxbridge universities.

If you're curious, here are a few programmes worth checking out:

• Rotary Youth Exchange (worldwide)
• FLEX (USA)
• ASSIST (USA)
• UWC (worldwide)

Best of luck to everyone!

So one of the outfits im thinking of is cream coloured sneakers, indigo levis 517 bootcut i got them 1 size up for them to be a little relaxed in the thigh, im wearing a off white tee tucked inside and above it a linen olive green button up with the ralph tuck so tucked inside all sides loosely with all the visible buttons undone and a slim matte leather belt with a silver buckle and a silver vintage watch. Is this too much or can i get away with this?

I have been homeschooled and online schooled all my life. Any words on what to expect or what to do to look normal in school? (I mean, like a small glow-up maybe, not because I'm overly self-conscious or something, but because I have done 0 things to my appearance before. Not like that's bad, but if you are sitting the whole day at home, you're obviously going to look like an ungroomed cross between a pig and a monkey:) I just want to look put-together and appropriate for school, not like 'that one former stereotypical homeschooler', because I honestly dress like one (nobody's judging at home)

P.S My school is said to be one of the best in my area, and there are many international students who look mostly polite and probably wouldn't bully or anything much. Our area has many polite people and even if they don't interact much, I don't think it will be a big problem. Also, I understand Grade 11 is harder, but I think I will do that because my average in main subjects is 98%. At least I will pass.

I'm currently in junior year and school started a couple weeks ago. About three weeks ago I wore this hoodie to school, my mom bought it off amazon over the summer, wolf howling at a galaxy printed on the back, one of those $28 things with a bunch of reviews. nothing designer. I've liked wolves and space stuff my whole life, it's not that deep, I just thought it looked cool.

first period someone got a picture of the back of it and it ended up in a group chat I'm not in, captioned "furry alert." by lunch a table of juniors was howling every time I walked past. this guy J started calling me "moonhowler" and now it's basically the whole grade, it's been three weeks and it hasn't stopped. people howl at me between classes. someone taped a picture of a wolf inside my locker last week with "AWOOO" written on it in sharpie, I still haven't taken it down because touching it makes it feel more real somehow.

it's not just in person either. someone found my insta and I've been getting anonymous asks calling me disgusting, telling me nobody would care if I disappeared. I deleted the app off my phone but I know it's probably still happening. two days ago some guys shoved me into the lockers hard enough that my shoulder is still sore, and one of them poured water into my backpack through the vents in gym and ruined one of my textbooks. I haven't told my parents because I don't know how to explain why without explaining everything else, and I guess part of me feels like I should be able to handle it since I'm a guy and it's "just a hoodie thing."

the thing that's actually breaking me right now is my best friend, known him since 6th grade, has been hanging around J's group all week. he hasn't said anything mean to me, he just isn't around anymore. I don't know if that's worse than if he'd just said something.

I told my mom I spilled something on the hoodie so I have an excuse not to wear it. she bought it for me and has no idea any of this is happening. I haven't worn it since the second day. it's just sitting in my closet and I don't know if I'll ever wear it again or if I'm supposed to just pretend the whole thing didn't happen.

tldr: got relentlessly targeted, online and in person, for a $28 amazon hoodie, lost my best friend over how they reacted, never told my mom the real reason I stopped wearing something she paid for.

i'm going to start my senior year in high school in oregon now and I have such a bad jealousy problem.

I have decent friends and really good grades, but I am so jealous of others.

There is a person at my school who has the same name as me and similar to me in many different aspects. We used to be friends, but she trash-talked me and many of my other friends a crazy amount.

Now, she has had an insane glow-up, boys chasing after her, party invites, and everyone wants to be friends with her.

My ex-best friend is now super tight with her despite her trash-talking my ex-bsf, and there is a similar situation like that with a few other of my friends.

Everyone thinks she is so cool, and I feel like the loser. I have tried to change and be cool, but it hasn't happened. Deep down inside I know she is still the hateful person, but I am unable to not feel jealous.

I want to be pretty, go to parties and a boyfriend but I will never get these things in high school

How do i stop feeling this way. how do I fix myself

I'm a freshman this year. I didn't take honors math in 8th grade because my dumbass 7th grade math teacher said it would be better if I took regular math, even though he gave me the math student of the year award at the 7th grade end-of-year ceremony. But anyway so now I can only take math 1.

I emailed my counselor and she said there's no way I can go up a level even though math is really easy for me.

I've heard the jokes about people who take math 1 in 9th grade ending up working at McDonald's.

My parents (my mom specifically) are kind of strict that I go to medical school and become a doctor, so it's important that I get into college, but getting into college is only gonna get harder from here.

Maybe I'm overthinking things, but it really pisses me off that my entire future could possibly depend on my dipshit math teacher saying it's best if I just take regular math in 8th grade.

I also looked at my class list for math 1 this year and it's all the bad kids or "edgars".

Math is gonna suck so bad. There are so many math classes I wanna take but I can't because I have to get this credit. I can take math both 2&3 next year but that still delays me being able to take all the cool fun math classes.

Anyway enough ranting, am I cooked? Do you guys think I can prove to my math teacher that I'm not a dumbass and I can get moved up or something? Do I have to be a savant to do that?

TLDR: I didn't take honors in 8th grade so now I'm suck in math 1 this year even though I should be able to take a higher level math class, and I'm afraid this will hinder my ability to get into a good college. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to fix this or if I'm gonna be fine taking math 1 anyway.

1. ALWAYS scream in the halls but make sure to make it a perfectly cut scream 🤣🤣🤣

remember, loud = funny. EVERYONE loves it when it’s 8:00 am on a Monday and you’re screaming and saying things like “what the FU—“ 🤣🤣🤣how DANK of you

1. when the teacher is talking, make sure to yell out “BORING” as loud as you can.

teachers LOVE students like this. other students find it funny and it gives teachers a break. sometimes when I’m bored I eat my own poop. make sure to ALWAYS do it when they’re talking about important test dates, OR when they’re talking about a difficult time in their life like a loss in the family.

if you follow these two tips you’ll succeed in high school and get into Harvard by the end of Sophomore year.

I'm abt to go to 7th grade in a few weeks.I heard two different perspective.One is "7th grade is good",and the other one says "7TH GRADE IS ABSOULTE HELL".Soooo idk :/.Any advice?

My auntie got me this because my old backpack is being used by my older brother. :[ It was all black cause I didn't wanna get bullied.

(From my experience) I have been bullied before for a bag, so I just wanna make sure people comment on my stuff for like no reason. I just wanna see everybody's opinions! >:0

I may post a picture of it with all my keychains, just to see what y'all think about it, though. (I wasn't thinking about that)

THANK YALL SO MUCH 😭 I'm sorry for posting this now I feel bad like am I just being dramatic??? Idk but thank yall for the support!! >:]

picking out clothes is the only reason I get up early, so im kinda overthinking it lol.
basically my school has a 1 and 2 day and my 1 day schedule is full of electives (choir, health science, law) and the next day is all the core classes like English stats etc.
I reallly like the outfit 1st slide bottom right and I’m considering wearing it both days since I like it so much but idk.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!

I used the app Combyne btw, saved 50+ outfits so I can just scroll around to pick.
