Uh.. do your stuff.  People say that your senior year doesn't count towards college much.  This is a LIE.  Do the best you can.  Do NOT slack off.  Also, if you have the opportunity to take college level courses, do it.  I get out of a math class and a history class in college thanks to an AP US History class and a dual enrollment campus class.

adopt an attitude that will actually benefit you in the years to come. Nobody takes freerunning, silly haircuts, or people prone to whining fits seriously in the workforce.

As someone who's out of college and has a full time job, let me give you the alternate advice: f it. Seriously, f it. Screw around, don't care, blow stuff off. Cuz guess what. This is basically your last chance. That type of attitude will NEVER fly in college or at work. This is basically your realistic last chance to act like a kid. Don't waste it studying for too many AP courses.

I'm going to a state school.. luckily my financial aid covers a lot of it.  All I have are some Federal Sub and unsub loans.

And I got a nice $600 scholarship from the music department.  That's also I nice help.  Especially since this music department doesn't usually give out scholarships...

See, all of our arts programs are pretty hard to get into (unless if you go to a school that has like 5 fine arts majors.  Or in the case of a university near me, all of your music students play trumpet badly or sing with their lungs filled with Cigarette smoke, and either way they suck.)

I'm going to a school that has over 100 music majors. =D

Er, to clarify, because its big doesn't make it good, but it does make it harder to get into for me (as more people audition to go there)  I made it into a smaller school just as easy be decided on here.

Pretty much.  I'm going for music education, so I don't expect to be getting rich anytime soon.  Although, I do plan on getting a doctorate eventually...

I second that.

And Felix:  senior year is the last time you have to goof off, like Sai said.  But don't over do it, because the last thing you need is to be expelled a few weeks before graduating.  Damn, that sucked for him.

And now I'm off to college, to study mechanical engineering.
