Does it REALLY get better?

There can be only one.

After reading a lot of what other people have posted I really agree with almost everything said. High school can be the time of your life, college can be, the real world could be the best. A lot of it is how you treat it. In high school I stuck mostly to myself and only had a few friends, most of which I haven't talked to again in the last 4 years. Then I came to college and I made an effort to get out and meet people, make good friends and just have fun while working towards something I wanted to do. Whether or not college is the right thing for you is up to you but however you proceed don't worry about hs being the end all, life can be fucking fantastic.
