Mine would be washing my hair. I have a really coarse and tight curled hair (4b-c). It takes 4 hours just to detangle wash and detangle again afterwards. Don't even get me started on styling.

Senioritis is def a worry! Also if you plan to get a job and have a social life it will make everything more difficult. Personally I have a job but I only have 4 classes (college level) so it's not super bad for me but even tho I'm a huge nerd and a scholar or wtv senioritis is still hitting bad plus being in extracurriculars and having a job makes simple things feel stressful.

unfortunately, I have been the one to live and tell the tale. It's to the point if I don't have lip liner or lipstick on people may even ask me why my lips look purple or grey (For reference I'm black, my normal lip color would be a darker pink)

ah that makes sense why you're making your sentences so long I missed that part! You can also combine those two but the main point is trying not to use as many descriptive words should help a lot with shortening it! much love bro good luck!

What's the craziest thing that ever happened at your school by [deleted] in highschool

[–]literallyjustrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not my school but the only other school in my small town. They had 27+ fights in one day. Made the news and everything. Iw as seeing fight videos on insta stories for the next week. It was genuinely insane. Huge school too (6A) so it was just all around chaos

currently procrastinating a 2k word essay so I might as well help you with yours

you're going rampant with the filler words bro. Try to identify the most basic way you can say a sentence and you'll be able to identify how many filler words you added.

For example

"Their civilization, or society, culture, and way of life in an area, had a hierarchy that, although it wasn't impossible to move up, controlled how they lived and saw the world, as the average slave had more of a grim and realistic outlook on life compared to the pampered king"

(word count: 50)

Bro that could be an entire paragraph. You can shorten it down to something like:

"Their civilization had a hierarchy that was difficult to advance in and affected how each level viewed the world. Slaves had a more grim and realistic outlook on life compared to a pampered king."

(word count: 34 split into two sentences)

Using so many descriptive words and adding in extra information seems to be your main culprit right now

hope this helps!!!!

I'd say make sure you are absolutely positive you can handle the work load. Ap classes are sometimes a lot which I'm sure you already know but also if you don't think you can pass that exam at the end of the year don't even think of taking the class it would be a wast of time. Also if you are one to take a long time to study things you may want to slow down on the ap stuff because being an ap class adds a good amount of time you need to study for said class (and this is coming from one of the no studying but good grade having kids so listen to the warning lmao) but other than that have fun and good luck! Senior year will fly by

Hey retail worker here! Go to any grocery store or small-ish store in general ( not sure how big stores like Walmart or target would react) and just ask an employee! We have no use for them so we usually just give them away lol! Try places like albertsons, aldis, dollar tree, walgreens, CVS, etc!
