As I am ending the chapter in my life called high school and beginning the chapter of my life called college, I have found some life advice that I wish I had heard earlier. "If you want to be interesting, be interested." As you find more things that you enjoy doing, the more you find people who enjoy the same things. And the more you do, the more things you have to talk about, even if someone doesn't do exactly what you do. To find things you are interested in, you have to TRY something new. Say yes to anything that interests you in the least. If you find out you don't like it, at least you can say you tried.
This all relates to college because the things you do in high school are what helps you get friends in college. For example, I really enjoy music, so that is a big topic of conversation that I can talk about people with. Also, I can find people who like going to concerts and go with them.
Moral of the story: FIND THINGS YOU LIKE TO DO AND GO DO THEM.
Sorry for the preachiness of this post, but I really wished I knew this earlier. I did a lot of activities in high school, but there are many things that I only started doing my senior year, and I wish I could have done them in all of my years on high school!
