O man being 16 is not fun. Adults always say that they wish they were kids again because kids have no responsibilities and can just have fun. The REAL reason they say that is cause they are loosing their har, or their tits are getting saggy, and they wish they were teenagers again. They forget how much being 16 sucks. My parents are a pain in the ass. They always give me a hard time when i go out, and even though they know they are gonna let me go out, they always make me argue with them. Its not even like i go out a lot. Friday and sat nights, and im always home before 11:30. But they insist on giving me a hard.
Parents suck, they forget that being a teenager is supposed to be fun. and being 16 is not as fun as adults think it is.

Get up at 6, and then have fun till 1130. It works better that way. 16 is good, it's kinda downhill after that unless you work your ass off.

I'm 16 and I have fun =/
Just now I've come back from going out with a couple friends for a few hours. I snuck out the house at midnight without my parents knowing =D
And when I go to Denmark (which is often) beer = legal! =D
Then again I can get it here easy enough =/
Being 16 isn't as bad as you think.

Being a teenager isn't supposed to be all fun. Sure you can have fun but you're preparing to be an adult. Sometimes parents bitch at what seems like nothing but you just have to deal with it. 2 more years and you can have a little more freedom. Unfortunately you find out that you have more responsibilities. Once you hit like 12 fun time is over and it's all about being responsible.

thats what im scared of, if it actually goes DOWNHILL from 16, and college isint that great, life isint gonna be that fun. :(
I work in school, but i dont work my ass off. Im a junior and i have no idea where iwant to go to college but everyone keeps asking me where i want to go. God growing up sucks. I wish i was 6 instead of 16.
More fun + more responsibility is fine with me.

See, flashingfish breaks the rules (sneaking out) and gets to have lots of fun, I follow most rules, and my parents give me a hard time. :confused:

Don't break any rules, then you will just fuck you life up and/or make it harder. If you don't know what you want to do, join the peace corps. You can see the world. If you're not opposed to risking your life join the military, there's a million jobs.

Well how much time have you actually spent thinking about what you want to do in the next couple years?
eh, dont sweat it. as of now, you are developing skills to base your life on. you need to work hard enough to get a steady job, and once you have a steady job you have a fixed income. with money you can afford to be independant of your parents, and then can hang with your friends with no problems. in reality, your parents are making sure you move out... they want you to do good in school so you can get the job that will "get you out of their hair" so to speek. just take it easy... my moms a drunk and hassles me all the time over issues. i just sit back, relax, and dont give her any reason to jump on my ass.
take it easy :)

First of all, life isn't fun if you don't break any rules.
thats what im scared of, if it actually goes DOWNHILL from 16, and college isint that great, life isint gonna be that fun. College isn't all about studying you know, go to a state university (ie. for me: University of Texas[can you say party?], and Texas A&M[I'll probly end up going here]) and you can have a little fun. Now don't get me wrong, I do plan on studying hard when I get to college, but all work and no play sure as hell sucks :p
p.s. dont take any advice from flatfish :p

wow. Feel the hate =/
Maybe I forgot to mention I'm in a school which is in the top 1% of my country, which isn't a private school (so my parents couldn't just pay to get me in :p ) and I'm in the top few % of my year group. I revise (study) pretty hard and get good marks/grades.
I just know the balance between having fun and working =/

Growing up poor sucks more. You don't get to do crap, because your too young to work, and your parents cannot afford for you to do anything. The most fun I've had has been this past year. I got my 1st place 9 months ago, I'm 22. I throw parties, stay out for days at a time. I'm still in college. I go on weekend trips with my friends. Go skydiving, ride dirt bikes, street bikes. Screw my girlfriends brains out any time of the day. What more can you ask for? But you have to make enough money to do what you want.

Just cause your smart doesnt' mean you have any common sense........;)

You point being? How is fun not having "common sense"?
If I had said "I go out every day and get drunk and take drugs" then I would understand, but I don't do that. At all.

I meant it as a joke. Sorry.
im at the top of my class (i think)... but mostely because everyone else is too high to care :rolleyes:. thats not to say i dont light up as well, im just not stupid about it ;). being poor... at the moment, i am typing this on a $50 computer my father bought. the house he lives in is owned by his mother. he cant pay his bills... it can get rough, but "in every life alittle rain must fall." :p

The people who tell you high school is the best years of your life don't really remember their high school lives (or weren't able to do much after they graduated). High School could be the best years of your life if you had to work full time for 30 years first, because it really does change your outlook on what is personally important. However, school has changed a hell of a lot in even the 8 years since I was there, and not really for the happier. I wouldn't go back
The truth is that being an adult is better, because while you have a lot more responsibility, you also have a great deal more freedom.
Just hang in there and look for the things that are both good and important. They're out there.

screw responsibilities.
fuck preparing to be an adult.
being a teenager is supposed to be fun, teachers can get on their knees and bite me, im not gonna study for those retards.
they really are retards, im not just saying that, my biology teacher thinks free willy is a shark.
i pass my tests so easily its not even funny. but ive been told i turn in less work than any student :cool:
high school content is easy as hell, nothing hard about it. except that the teachers seem to love to load u with unnecessary work, they just think that the more work they do the more we will get the content. i already get the freaking content. if somebody needs help learning the content, then they should look harder at it more and find their own way to learn it. instead the teachers force work that has stupid consequences of not doing it, regardless of whether u need it.
life is supposed to be fun, that's why we're here :)
see, my parents think im mentally disturbed after i blew up my toilet and killed the water pressure for the entire neighborhood with a firecracker, i thought it was frickin hilarious. im paying for it, doesnt matter, but they think theres something wrong with me because i thought it was hilarious.
they're too old :)
