Did high school prepare you for later life?
In many ways, yes, in other ways no. Gosh this is a question I could answer in probably five or more paragraphs. I'll spare people. I wrote about my high school years in my blog, so I have reflected on it in the past. This is a very interesting question, @Nammu! One whose answers could go in many different directions, including ones relevant to bipolar disorder.

What activity relaxes you most?
