P4: Gritty Reboot Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 So, our own VicariousShaner has his first day at high school tomorrow. That's 9th-12th grade, or about 14 years old through 17 or 18 years old, for those of you in countries with different school systems. Here's the deal: each of us gets to pack him one thing in a survival kit for high school. Post what you'd give him, and why, and a picture to make it colorful. RULES: Has to be able to fit in a normal backpack No more than $100/item Titanium Spork I've got one of these bad boys, and it's saved me from many an embarrassing "Uh... can I borrow a fork?" moments. A must for any highschooler or college student. $8.99 at Think Geek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewblaha Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) For Shaner? Seriously. Do what I did and keep your mouth shut for the first few weeks. That's when people try to weed you out. Trust me. I only started doing it after I made a dumb joke in class.

Chewblaha Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 That works too. I just made the mistake of talking too much with people and they kind of ended up hating me for it. When I say talk, I mean I talked for fucking hours sometimes. About stupid shit too like history. No one fucking likes history in high school. The fuck was I thinking?

Battra92 Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Son, you're going to need a couple of things: 1.) A Moleskine or other pocket notebook. Seriously, when some chick gives you her number you can write it down in your "little black book." I used to use those made by PIcadilly but with Borders closed, I have no source of them. Staples sells a variant called Markings by C. R. Gibson and they are on sale for $3 this week. It's obvious but the customizations are endless on these things. I recently drew on mine with a silver Sharpie. One word of warning, if you do that seal it with clear nail polish or (like I did) clear Scotch tape. 2.) A good pen. This goes without saying. If you're still using cheap BICs or freebies that will die on you in an hour, it's time to grow up. Real men have good pens. I have a bunch that I could recommend (fountain, gel and ballpoint) but this is personal. 3.) A good backpack that you can make your own. Paratrooper bags or other Army surplus bags work great: 4.) Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers, You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers. That's all I can think about for now. You should be good from there. Obviously you'll also need stuff like general notebooks and pens and protractors but quite frankly you should have that stuff by now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRevanchist Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 @Battra: Tips 1 and 2 work well in the working world, too. The best people I've seen use journals to make all of their notes in. They keep detailed records of all meetings, events, and people's names. Excellent post! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantelope Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) Take some Gak with you. It's got so many different uses. And for you talkboy fans, you're just in because you saw Home Alone 2 a few dozen times. Edited August 29, 2011 by Yantelope 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Seriously, when some chick gives you her number you can write it down in your "little black book." Just don't tell them that's what you're doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
