So, High School. A place that every middle schooler wishes to be, and ever college student is exhilarated to leave. 

They say high school is supposed to be the best four years of your life. Well I'm a sophomore in high school and so far, it has been a living hell. 

High School I can tell you now, is nothing  like High School Musical portrays it to be. But all the stereo types are still there. Your average popular girls, basket heads, gamers, jocks, wannabes, weebs, crackheads, drug addicts, sluts, whores, geeks, losers, and all those people. 

Now let me tell you this. I came from a small private middle school. The whole school together only came up to like, 150 kids. I was very naive to basically everything when I entered high school. They make a comparison, that when your in eighth grade and your the oldest kids in the school, your the big fish in a small pond. But then when you graduate into high school, you become a freshman and bottom of the barrel. You become  small fish in a large pond. So I come from experience in saying that this metaphor is pretty spot on. 

But there are ways to survive high school. Sadly I did not find them out until my sophomore year. But the rules depend on you as a person.

If your an introvert? (Much like myself)

Rule 1) Keep to yourself

Rule 2) Dont question upper class man if your in the losing favor.

Rule 3) Make friends, and stay in a group

Rule 4) Stay away from fuck boys. 

Well actually. I broke that last rule. And that's why my high school year is a living hell.

Let me set the stage.

I am a 5 ft 4, long haired brunette, with green eyes and pale skin. I go to Northside High School, and I'm a sophomore. I have a small friend group of three, Lucy, Ava, and Alexandria. I have acquaintances too, but their less frequent. You can also say I have a double life bc I act two very separate ways when I'm home and when I'm out. I'm into pop and rock. I dress in black all the time. But well, that's more of a preference. I have an older brother and a younger sister and I live with just my mom. And for the record only my other calls me by my real name. My name is Mackenzie. But my friends call me Mack.

Welcome to my fucked up rollercoaster of a life.
