Describe your usual day in school?
I reach school at 7:30 am and enter my classroom. I see faces; weird, grumpy, some angry, some happy, some sad and so on. I go and grab my seat at the end of the row and then march towards the assembly. Having no friends is weird in school because every corner you see, you’ll find people with their buddies. The assembly becomes a nightmare for us at times, for when they start distributing the prizes, it gets lengthy. Then we come back to our respective classes and the classes begin. We have computer period in the beginning of the day. Sir teaches us, asks us few questions on the topic and leaves, and then enters the teacher who owns the second period. I’m not mentioning any names because the second period is different each day. After the second period we have a short break, when we have some snacks. Then we study for another 3 periods and then eat our lunch. After the lunch break we again have 3 periods which stay the same, social, hindi, and mathematics. We study for those three periods and as the bell rings, clutch our school bags and come down to the ground. People bid there buddies a goodbye and head towards their buses, but my home’s nearby so I come with my mum who picks me from school everyday.That’s what a typical school day of my life is like.
Describe your senior year of high school ?
It was stressful but fun. 6 AP classes=LOT of stress and LOT of study, had to worry about applying to good college, doing applications. They take a lot of time, start on them in october and finish by end of December. Had to do scholarship letters, and build my record by volunteering. After April though, everything was fun, no final exams, no due dates for homework, no tests, no application, I only went to school for like half the day, they didn't care. I had As. Didn't really have too many expectations. Schools is same always. Seriously, college is really no different than high school, except now I am also juggling a job and have to act like an "adult"
How would you describe your first day of High School?
Well, you're certainly eager. Um, there was a lot of bustling around in the hallways the first day of school as everyone was busy looking for their classes as freshmen. My first day of school was pretty hectic - new hallways, new teachers, new people. Other than that, it was fine after the first week. :]
Describe your high school life/experience. How was it?
THE SCHOOL LIFE IS ONE OF THE HAPPIEST TIMES I EVER HAD.It was really a wonderful experience. I had many friends who were always there for me.Our friends group was used to be the most notorious one.But we never abandoned our studies.Due to my father’s job I used to travel a lot.I’ve done my primary education, secondary education and high school education from different places. But every time when I go to a new place I was always welcomed by(almost)everyone.When I was in high school I had a very wonderful time thanks to my friends and friendly teachers.When I was a high schooler I used to date guys A LOT.lol.But that does not mean that everything was good. When I entered high school I use to cry a lot. At first I barely knew anyone. I was considered as an outsider for a few weeks. Sometimes I was humiliated by students.AND when I was about to give up on studying in that school I got the support of a person who is very dear to me. Slowly I started to get closer with him and then many students came out and started to support me.And now I have so many friends which are irreplaceable to me.And we are still in touch.In short my high school life was full of spice and fun. I had many ups and downs but if you ask me to describe it in one sentence then it will be “it was an experience which taught me many lessons which is useful throughout the life.”
How would you describe your high school experience?
I didn't like it at first, but that was mostly my fault because I was so quiet and timid after years of bullying. Over the three years, though, I ended up forming some great friendships through the help of my cousins and childhood friends, I found and explored my passions and talents, and by the end of it, I didn't want to leave because I was having so much fun. Six years later I can't say I'm happier that I've left because being a high school student and being a university student is different in its own ways, but I do enjoy my university experience, and there have been many times throughout it where I've felt the same type of happiness -- as in, I never want that particular semester/summer/job/friendship to end. But it always does. And I always find something happy in a different kind of way to replace it.
Describe school in your own word's and what do you think about it ?!?!?! BEST ANSWER GET'S 10 POINT'S
My school is my home away from home. I love to learn and Im happy that my classes are full of intelligent people who also love to learn. My classes are fascinating and my teachers are well learned and experienced. The campus has a bohemian feel to it and there’s always kids with easels, painting the scenery or kids with guitars just playing by themselves or with their friends. I like my school, although not necessarily the people that attned it. I feel estranged from most of my classmates, but I don’t dwell on these things. I have a few trusted friends, and I go to school to learn, not to socialize.

From what I know, many go for extra enrichment classes and tuition classes. Must be really hectic. My primary school days were relatively carefree as compared to my school days today.I know what you're thinking, "that's insane!"I know. Unfortunately, it can't be helped. I wish I could have the time to explore new things, not to just study according to a fixed curriculum. But that's just how he cookie crumbles here in Singapore, sadly.
What is High School Like In America?
Basically, I just wanted to know more about what American Schools are like. I’m from the UK and I’m in Year 8, So I’m 13. We wear school-uniform, and hardly any makeup. Only (Year 10 & 11) 15-16 year olds are aloud to wear makeup So, no eye shadows, no eyeliner, no bronzer or blush, no lipstick. Just light foundation and natural-looking mascara. But obviously most pupils break those rules, and over-bronze there face and clump up the mascara :/ Our School meals/lunches are 'decent' Breakfast: Pizza Bagels (with pepperoni and cheese) Lunch: Hot Meals (Baked Potatoes, Curries, Sausage & Mash, Chicken Nuggets Etc.) Cold Meals: Sandwiches I start school at 8.45am to 3.30pm, other schools end at 2.30, 3.05, 3.15 We have 5 lessons during the day. Including; English, Maths, History, Religious Studies (R.E), PE (Physical Education), Art, Design & Technology, Science, Geography, German or French, ITC (Computers), Drama, Music. There are different types of ‘groups’ in my schools like; Emo’s: They’ll write depressing statuses, take dark pictures. Badman's: There very ‘gangster’ and they’ll use English Slang and Abbreviations; the Badman's are the cool people. Slags: Slags are the girls who put up those ‘slutty pictures’ on Facebook, they usually have clumpy mascara, wear low cut tops, have bf’s, are dirty-minded, and are very b***hy. Slags are as popular as the Badmans. And then there are the people that don’t fit in at all. What groups are there in America? In Year 11 we do GCSE’s, GCSEs (General Certificate of Secondary Education) are exams that 16 year olds are expected to take before finishing compulsory education. I THINK it’s the same as graduating High School- I’m not sure though. So, what are American High Schools like? Oh and what are some good High Schools in America?
What is the funniest thing ever happend in everyone's school life?
Once we had an English solo song competition in our school. Since my school (Ramjas Public School, Anand Parvat, Delhi) was not a convent or Christian school but a normal public school which had more of desi folks, where we students normally didn't use to listen to English songs. So for that sake my English teacher planned for an english solo song competition as a part of internal assessment when I was in class 9.We were given 3 days to prepare a song of our choice. All of us downloaded and discussed what all songs we were about to sing in the class. While getting busy for preparations I forgot to tell one of my classmate who was absent on the day when the teacher announced for the competition. On the competition day we were revising and singing our songs in front of each other and trying to correct our mistakes in the morning time. The friend who was absent came on the competition day after recovering from illness. He was worried but though he was the naughtiest kid of the class he said I will manage don't worry. When we asked "how?" He responded you just wait and watch. Few of us sang the song. Some stuck while some did it easily. When my friend's turn came he took a pause and started singing "Brazil taa ra ra ra ra raa, taa ra ra ra ra raa brazil" (this was the most played song on weddings and dj at that time) The whole class laughed like mad. The english teacher's face was a mix of humor and anger at that time. She was confused with her feelings. She wanted to laugh and be angry at the same time. This song has only 1 word "brazil" and rest music so it was legally an English song. He got 2 on 10 but we classmates got a memory worth remembering.
