to those who have graduated high school or went through high school:
now that you think about your high school years,
what do you wish you took more advantage of?
what do you regret the most?
what did you consider the 'best part of high school'?
any tips you'd give to current high school-ers to help them enjoy their high school experience or do well during their high school experience?
are there any mistakes that you made then learned from that you'd want to tip high schoolers about?
any response is great, whether it be deep and thoughtful, or straightforward, any response is welcome.

The reason I ask is because I feel like I'm having this 'falling out' right now, and I feel like time is slipping by too quickly. I know I'm only 16 and all, but I feel like in a matter of seconds, I'll be 30 and whatnot. Not that I'm saying 30 is a bad age, but I wish I knew how to stay youthful in my mind instead of drowning myself in thoughts concerning my future and later years. I can't help but not think about failure, rejection, becoming unsuccessful...
any ideas/words/thoughts are appreciated. but I'd be grateful enough for a response for my questions above.
I'm thinking, maybe other high school-ers on this forum could also read and learn to help make their high school times enjoyable as well
Thanks a lot. (for some reason, just writing this post and asking the questions took a load off my chest. )
