How to Make It Through High School

Hi there, Reilly Scribbner here to share another imaginary story with you. So what's high school really like? Is there more work? More stress? Will it be difficult being one of the youngest high schoolers, and if so, have you ever been there? If you're having thoughts like those, you're not alone: Lots of other kids are feeling the same way you are — you're all starting out in a new place. With that in mind, here are a few topics and some things you might want to know about them. 
== Starting Out at a New School ==
One time, I met an amazing new friend. Her name is Elizabetty Henderson. She is a slender teenage girl of noticeably long stature with bright red hair, a pink bunny helmet, and skates on her Converse shoes. She also has a black Apple Watch on her right wrist. All of the boys thought she was cute, and I certainly don't blame them! 
And of course, she is an energetic, selfish, spoiled, and sassy troublemaker who sometimes doesn't tell the truth, but remains loyal to her friends. Elizabetty is also known for being obsessed with cupcakes, glitter, unicorns, bunnies, and rainbows. She also enjoys shopping, drinking bubble tea, and taking selfies on her iPhone.
Later in class, that's when I went into high level mode. I took a breath and counted to 10. I felt as confused as the panda face on Elizabetty's shirt. Luckily, we kept going. She then said those dreaded words, “Girl we need to talk”. I tried to replace the annoyance in my mind with the things we should have discussed before embarking on our journeys.
It would be imperative to the remainder of our school hours to have this talk and get everything out in the open before it backfired on us. Elizabetty was just tweeting on her iPhone and of course, drinking bubble tea. Instead of getting yourself into the situation I was in, I highly recommend following a few guidelines to make sure you and your friend make a good fit. Even just discussing a few important details will have a major impact in your school. 
At this point, Elizabetty decided to ask her Siri for directions. I was devastated, but I didn't feel like giving up, so I kept trying. And it's perfectly OK if you're nervous at first. Even if you don't get off to the best start, that's normal, too — just be patient and keep trying. Once you've adjusted to your new independence, you may find you can go farther than you ever imagined.
== Learning Inside the Classroom ==
But seriously, and I can't stress this enough, don't take my adventures in high school seriously. You may find your experience completely different, and the one thing I'm absolutely sure will happen to you is that you'll go crazy... a lot. 
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to finish my ELA homework.
