I miss the fact that certain courses are much easier and I wouldn't have minded staying back and delaying university.

Yeah. Because in the UK we finish at 16 not 18 like America does.

Or Canada, in fact, I turned 18 after university started, 2nd day of class.

Nope, it was s**t.

I only miss having a uniform. It was much simpler to throw that old thing on everyday, rather than plan an outfit carefully :P

'x' means times/multiplication, the ^ means to the power of. I got used to that from my calculator.

So Infinity times infinity to the infinite power, No to the infinite power

No I was treated terribly in highschool and one to no friends.

Made life more difficult in the real world. I still have nightmares about high school and the problems I had with the education system. This was way before I was diagnosed or even suspected as having aspergers, I'm surprised I graduated while my smart neurotypical sister dropped out. Shows how much I wanted to leave.

I sort of miss my freshman and sophomore years because they were my best years, socially and academically. Other than that, I'm pretty sure I won't be missing high school once I've graduated, which will be next month. :)

All I can say is hell no. I left high school early and have no regrets.

no. i had some good moments with my friends but my social awkwardness made high school hard for me. the uniforms, go here and go there feeling about everything, everyone trying to look uber cool etc. i had some slight reluctance on graduation day but i was happy to be done away with it. i'm definitely better off socially in college. academically...i'm still a stressed out nut.

Well, at least it wasn't nearly as bad as junior high.

No no no no no no. I hated it with a white hot hate. I still occasionally have nightmares that I have to go back for some reason. I'd never want to go back and relive any of those years either. Bleh.
