I'm graduating from high school in two months! What life lesson did you learn in high school?

My biggest life lesson and advice for those in high school is to lay low: let everyone think you suck at your classes so they won't bother you or ask for answers to the homework (when really you're super smart).

I have found NO ONE likes smart people
In the real world keep you head low
Do your best but never brag
let everyone wonder why you keep getting advanced and they don't
But if you ever act cocky ONCE ,,they will sabotage your work
and bury you ,,,always on the qt ,,no one likes bragging ass smart people

@rckt148 I don't know, today I see girls drooling all over the smart guys.
Nerds are now hot and sexy.

@BlackBloodDemon No dear girls like Alpha male
Confident not cocky ,,there is a huge difference

@rckt148 Yes smart people are the alpha
They know what they're doing

@BlackBloodDemon We don't have to brag ,the problem is not letting it all go to our heads ,,
I am guilty ,,I liked making people look inferior but years of getting beat down waiting for my chance to shine was part of that
I was to young ,not enough experience ,to eager
But it paid off ,,I gained a lot of influential friends who opened doors for me
But piss them off ,and they can close them just as fast
Just because big money lets you hang with them never take that means your one of them ,,your not
They can buy and sell you and the company you work for and fire you ,,you are a threat
ever heard keep your enemies close ,your skilled friends closer
They want credit for your work ,,,but make them look bad you better to be able to stand alone ,,or get eaten
I just gave you sound advice for free
