are you one of the rich kids, the popular/rich kids, the stoners, drill rappers, nerdy nerds, athlete jocks. the gothics/metal kids, normal normies, or are you a loner nobody speaks to?
personally was a loner
would there still be bullies and highschool cliques under soviet style education?
I was in a decent public highschool in a generaly rich region (mostly from tourism), politicaly mostly centrist (with both left and right tendancies)
Altho as high schoolers, the leftist (green especially) part was the most prominent, despite a few undercover far right people, mostly larpy royalists.
I was definitely a loner back then, I kind of switched around in friend groups depending on who's class I was in, I couldnt hang out with the same people as in middle school anymore, as we were scattered around the 14 class groups. So around the three years I was just hanging around different people. Most memorable year was probably 2nd year, when we were about 8-9 (one was barely ever present) dudes in the class and the 21 others were girls, so we kind of just always hang around in between dudes that was actually kinda nice in a way.
I remember first year a lot tho, lot of social upveal back then (yellow vest protest era), we took dead advantage of that, it was my first protest and we would blockade the school every friday (and sometimes more, trying to get longer weekends, altho we were also very concerned about ongoing education reforms).
I also remember some of the banter going on the dozen of dedicated instagram accounts, like arguings between reddit atheist dudes and edgy astrology girls, it was all so stale but was quite funny to watch from the sidelines.
2nd and 3rd year was when I really revealed myself as fond of geopolitics and the like by getting very good grade in said (quite new) class (the full name was history, geography, geopolitics and polsci).
I also remember the lockdown, how I spent months and months not doing any homework but just playing PDX games like a fucking retard. That was kind of fun.
The banter in the philosophy class was great too, our teacher was so ass, so were the english teacher we had, and many other teacher of varied stuff over those three years.
High school was also my first relationship, albeit I to this day refuse to count it, as it was just edating and only lasted 3-4 months until I ended it myself, having grown apathic on the matter.
There was a few scandals like when our PE teacher made some very mysogenistic comments and almost got suspended for good.
I also remember spending lot of ours reading on my own in the library, slowly seeing the rise of normie interest in anime, and playing among us at the back of library with the rest of the class.
Ended up getting my high school diploma with almost a good mention, and failing scipol degree entrance exam, but ended up dedicated myself to the study of history in uni, which I still am to this day.
I would argue it wasnt a very good time, as I had no proper anchor, only dashed around, spent a lot of time alone, especially in comparison to my recent uni years, which have been easily my lifetime peak so far, but I still look back fondly upon it, notably for the lockdown and as it is the time I consider to have freed myself of many things, such as seeing face to face my bisexuality or finally acknowledging my hobbies more openly (notably anime stuff, as it became more normie)
