The only thing that REALLY bothers me about this is my parents accusing me of never wanting to hang out with anyone. I would tell them the situation but knowing them they'd say I was making it all up as an excuse to stay home. |
While I'm at a smaller school and not every senior and junior is like this, the majority are. I too always would stay home and do nothing.
You could always become involved with something good or productive such as volunteering. That would take up some time and woudl be really helpful to others.
