What Is Life Like After Secondary School?

Still early in my secondary schooling life and I hate it, not fun but you got to do what you got to do, planning to be a commercial airline pilot here, but I'm wondering, if I hate it now will I hate it then? For those who have passed the secondary school, has it gotten better? Is it more fun? What do you feel? Advice? Anything? and if not, why? And lastly what should i focus on for now?

Secondary was one of the best times I had. Life goes downhill after year 11. Secondary is no stress (The only stress was homework,GCSEs, and detentions). Try have fun in secondary school cause most people miss it when they grow up. You’re in secondary so focus on good gcses.

I’d say stick to your plan, keep working hard, and focus on what’s important to reach your goal. The journey won’t always be fun, but the end result can make it all worth it. Keep pushing through the tough parts, and remember to take breaks and enjoy the small moments.
I liked sixth form college wayyyyyy more than high school. Probably the best part of my youth was sixth form college.

As for now, I think I'm probably more well balanced now. I don't give a damn about other people's opinions of me any more, so I've ditched a lot of anxieties I used to have. I'm at peace with who I am as a person.
On the flip side I'm always tired and my bones ache.
