I'm not truly worried or distressed about entering Highschool as a freshman, but I've heard stories of upperclassmen picking on freshmen and kinda' "hazing" them into highschool.

What are some universal tips for surviving Highschool as a freshman?

1. Dont be a Douche.
2. Don't try to be a brown noser.
3. See 1.

REPEAT. That's it really.

And don't look like too much of an outcast from the social norm.

Haze other freshmen, of course.

This is pure, assisted self-destruction

Don't act like a freshman, act new, but like you are a sophomore trust me it works.

Example of upperclassmen taunting on MySpace

Congrats.%u200B%u200B.%u200B%u200B.%u200 B%u200B.%u200B%u200Bnow you're the lowest of the low, Here are just a few helpful words of advice, take it from us:

1) You are not cool.

2) Everyone does hate you.

3) You are annoying.

- Sex doesn't make you cool & it won't make the upper-class boys think any higher of you. So don't go around bragging about it, no one cares & then you look like an easy freshman whore.. just leave all the slutty things you did in 8th grade in middle school.

- don't brag about the number of seniors you know. The more u brag, the more we can tell you're a freshman.

- You are a F-%u200B%u200BR-%u200B%u200BE-%u200B%u20 0BS-%u200B%u200BH-%u200B%u200BM-%u200B%u 200BA-%u200B%u200BN.%u200B%u200B.%u200B%
u200B not a "freshie" - shut up, you sound like a queer

- Don't walk around telling upperclassmen you're not all stupid freshman, we don't care, we're still calling you one.

-Respect your teachers and your peers. Getting written up everyday and purposely failing really doesn't look cool, we may laugh but it is at you for your ignorance. If your going to waste time and school board money on bullshitting around just drop out your a lost cause and your really not that cool. people talk down about you behind your back.

- Don't think you're smart because you filled up water bottles with vodka/ or coke bottles with bacardi and snuck it onto your 8th grade field trip. We've all done it.. so don't be proud.

- Don't post things like "FINALLY FRESH!! LOLZZZ" on myspace. If anything, you suck big time.

- DO NOT think that the upper-class girls are your best friends.. they will just laugh at you.

- Stop thinking u are the shit cuz nobody even knows you

-Do not wear ripped jeans and an Abercrombie shirt because you want to make "a variety of friends."

- Do not slick your bangs to your face and wear "bracelets" in you're ears because you think that you're Hood.

-If you are going to try and rebel, it most likely won't work.

- Don't think that you have privacy now. Once you're here.. Your business is everyone's business.

- don't brag about how smart you are and how ½ of your schedule is honors classes. that's just more work u have to go home and do.

-Don't tell everyone you love your boyfriend after 2 days, you're an idiot.

- Don't try to sit at upperclassmen lunch tables. You will be picked up and thrown onto the floor.

- don't tell your friends that you're busy after school and tell them u have to go meet your friends in the jr./sr. parking lot, we all know your brother/%u200B%u200Bsisters just taking you home.

- You'll never be as hot as the '12, '11, and '10 girls. So don't try.

- To all freshman guys, you can't get with the class of '10 & '11 & '12 girls.

- Don't try to say you're older than you really are. The way you walk, dress & talk just has freshman written all over you.

- Your name is "the class of 13." HAHA.. enough said.

-Don' t try to pull that shit "Well you were freshmen once..." STOP! We know that we were freshmen, but we aren't anymore so shut the fuck up.

-The day you mess with our boyfriend/%u200B%u200Bgirlfriend,%u200B%
u200B you'll never enjoy high school again. bitch.

- Don't be a slut. This should be the number one rule.

- DO NOT crowd our halls like cattle, because the upper classmen can (& most likely will), push you out of the way. You will get hurt

-To all the freshman guys, we know your balls haven't dropped yet. That's why you still sound like Mickey Mouse. Don't go around bragging how big your dick is or how huge your balls are. We all know you're lying.

--DON'T THINK YOUR COOL BY TAKING OUR BULLETIN AND
PUTTING IT IN YOUR OWN WORDS-%u200B%u200B-%u200B%u200BDUMBASSES !

WE HATE YOU ALL

Welcome to hell. :)

Believe me---You CANT win. Have FUN being a freshman...for a fun-filled year with NO life and NO opinion whatsoever.

Sincerely,
The Classes of '12, '11, and '10

- If you're an upperclassman, repost this

To be honest, if you mind your own business and don't talk to the wrong people, you'll be fine. Don't over react. Nobody grabs you by the collar, and hangs you up against the wall, demanding lunch money. It's school, not a movie.

Don't be a moron. Don't try to be funny. Overall just act like a civilized human being.

You'll be fine. Act the way you act on NG and it shouldn't be too bad.

Goddamn, this is like the 90th fucking thread about this!

Honestly, you kids that are worried about this stuff are just being complete pussies. Like 90% of schools don't even have a problem with Freshmen hazing. My school absolutely didn't and nobody I've ever MET had been hazed or even harassed as a freshman by upperclassmen, because frankly, upperclassmen couldn't care less.

(Years/Grades 7-13)

Anyways I didn't think this problem existed anymore, certainly doesn't in my British school we're supposed to help the newcomers or we'll get kick out on our asses and suspended.

Exactly. And don't go around acting like high school is the shit. HS sucks ass, wait till your in college, then talk about time of your life. No one gives a fuck about HS once its over.

This guy's got the right idea. High school is a suck fest, if you're thinking John Hughes film style bullshit for what high school is like you're 10000000% wrong, it's just like Junior High except everybody's taller and the work's harder.

Just like how an assassin gets his/her mark easily: don't do anything stupid and don't get noticed.
Unfortunately, fate screwed me over that way my freshman year...

Yes.

Well Middle School hosts Grades 6-8 (except some Elementary/Primary school host 6th grade) and High School hosts Grades 9-13 (although I've never seen a 13th grade before).

Anyways I didn't think this problem existed anymore, certainly doesn't in my British school we're supposed to help the newcomers or we'll get kick out on our asses and suspended.

Holy shit I wish this same rule was applied in America!

Anyway, OP, mind your own damn business and get good score.

If you want to take things to a new level, defeat an upperclassman on something. In my freshman year, I have destroyed about 20 sophomores, 10 juniors and 1 senior in chess and I was well-known in the entire school for crushing upperclassmen in chess and got a lot of respect from them (despite being a puny freshman). I was also known as the "Hallway Speedster" (even by the school admins) because I zip through the hallways at fast speed evading people (and scaring the living shit out of the females). True story. It kind of feels strange to be bowed as superior by the upperclassmen...

Maybe it's just me, but I don't believe that hazing exists unless you ASK for it.
And trust me kid,
you'll know when you're asking for it.

1) Don't ask for it.
2) Be cool.
3) ???
4) Sophomore Year.

You really don't since we have to set an example to the little year sevens, we have to help them get their bearings and we all have to tuck our shirts in so we can look smart and respectable for future students.

It's annoying and we look like faggots.

There's no such thing as being picked on by seniors, I'm having a good time as a freshman.

Well, actually I show no signs of being a freshman anyways.
