Technically I didn't go to high school although some of my friends did and it doesn't sound any different than the school I went to. It was a great time in my life. I always had a lot of friends and was always up to mischief (and never got caught for it). No responsibilities, no commitments, no stress, no bills to pay. My school was also a college so I stayed on at 16 while my group of friends (including my best friend) all left to find work or go to other colleges. I knew enough people that I'd found a new group for myself pretty much on day one. After 16 we didn't need to wear uniform so we'd lounge around in jeans and I'd spend all my days doing chemistry experiments or in maths lessons or hanging out in the library where I had a second set of friends (including my best friend's twin sister).
Because a lot of my friends were working, they'd invite me to the pub or the snooker hall and would pay my share and stand me drinks. Those two years were among the best of my life.
