Tips for Surviving High School
(Warning: These tips are based on MY opinion of high school survival.) Now everyone has probably told you, or students like you, "Just have fun!" Now I have a perfect statement for that sentence. NO.

Some moments I had wished to have death's sweet kiss take me away, however growing up I learned that I'm happy death spared me.

The STEM major said she was working on a very long lab report, while her counterpart was cutting out gingerbread men and stressing over her "easy" assignment.
