senior montage ( how i'll remember high school )

- Опубликовано: 17 апр 2020
- IMPORTANT: okay i honestly don't know where to start ( or if anyone even reads my descriptions ) but here we go!! i made this video LAST YEAR when i was a graduating senior, but couldn't post it until now. this is by far my favorite video i've ever made, and after watching it alone in my room on repeat for a year, i decided to post it. to be completely honest, i hated high school. i didn't have many close friends in my grade, and faced relentless bullying, harassment, and discrimination from both "teammates" and administration, which ultimately led to being on suicide-watch in a psychiatric hospital. i originally didn't want to post this video because i felt it would be lying. i did not want to post a montage that made high school out to be "the best years of ( my / our ) life", because that simply isn't true. however, with all of that being said, there are absolutely moments and memories from high school that deserve to be remembered. i wanted to make this video and tell my story to help someone, because high school is hard. cheerleading for the football team and performing under the friday night lights is a feeling i'll never forget. being nominated for homecoming queen while in the mental hospital?? i'll never forget it. over the past year, i've been focusing on myself, becoming my own person, and coping with the psychological trauma that i faced before. i'm posting this video now to make peace with a four-year experience that showed me that there is always good and happiness in the world, even at your lowest points. high school taught me how to be kind when others are not, but mostly it made me realize that i am strong, resilient, and that i can. this is how i'll remember high school.
i really really hope you guys like this video and that maybe my personal story / experience helps someone who's struggling. i loved making this video and as always, my social media links are listed below. thank you so much for watching, i would appreciate it so much if you liked this video and subscribed to my channel!!

they aren’t joking when they say it goes by fast. i feel like it was yesterday when i was nervous to go into freshman year and now i’m a junior
Girl me too
Me too
Same😭
It's over before you know it SO CHERISH EVERY MOMENT!
Me too ahh I’m going to make the best of my next 2 years dang we’re growing up
20, 30, 40, 50 years from now people will look back to this and say “wow high school back then was so fun” just like how we see high school videos from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s🤗
True, bro. True. God bless!
Amazing…
can’t believe how covid took my main years of high school:((
THE UNIONS AND OBAMA AND THE LIBERLAS NEVER VOTE FOR A liberal again
Me too bruh it was supposed to be the best year ??? And this to be the best summer... You are not alone .
Me too
same. it sucks .
I’m sorry to hear that :( I’m gonna be a freshman in August and I’m excited but covid took 7th grade away from me and it was the best year :(
I feel so bad for the class of 2020 . They deserve a prom , a senior trip, a senior night , day at the beach , a bonfire, a senior prank and a graduation 👩🎓 I pray for you 💓💓💓🥺 ( yes I have watched this multiple times
Lol imagine living in Australia and only having a formal and graduation.
Yeah idk when it’s gonna end because even tho we have a choice even for the class of 2021 now they are taking out everything sadly
@@sidneylee2696 I HATE LIBERALS
Class of 2021 had it worst. At least here in Canada… lucky in the States it’s pretty much back to normal for them.
They don’t deserve anything they already had their fun in the whole school year . Trust me I saw kids last year 2020 and I don’t feel bad they always have fun so just because they didn’t get a graduation it’s horrible? No! think about the kids if any grade who are loners who never experience the fun the dances the football games prom homecoming and stuff like that
Why does American high school look like so much fun. Here in Canada, we don't have Friday night lights or dances. We have 1 prom and graduation and that's it
i’m american and out school doesn’t either but we also don’t have a football team so idk
@@natalielmao is it a private school?
@@jake4297 no
@@natalielmao where is it?
@@jake4297 east texas it’s a smaller school though but it’s still enough to have a football team yknow
Today was literally my graduation and i miss it already this vid just made me cry
Congratulations :)
My diploma was mailed to me

People are losing jobs and starving to death over covid and you're her "depressed" over not experiencing overly glamorized high school experience... i-
I graduate 2022 and I literally don’t know anyone in this video , but I’m sad .
Definitely regretting I didn’t do this all my 4 years. I graduate in 2022 too and I wanna do this for senior year!
i graduate 2025 and i’m still crying
@@allierae3389 you have plenty of time enjoy it !
@@laurenobi.2863 thank you!! enjoy your last year! hope it’s the best one yet!
i graduate in 2026 but this made me very sad
American high school seems like so many events, here in Germany you go home by 1 pm, no sports clubs or proms or that. Just go home and chill with friends lol
Yeah, we have a lot of events, but they are all optional
i mean i can't complain about the going home on 1pm on some days :P
Same in my country just we don't go home at 1pm
@@yourlocalavocado2948 Some American schools get out at 1pm on early release days.
I usually don’t go to the events since I don’t really have friends there with me that and cause I’m anti social. As well as embarrassed about being fat so yeah but I moved to another school and my daily walk to it will basically be my workout to lose weight while I search for a good diet plan
america: we only have a couple proms, friday light parties and a boring graduation :(
canada: omg we only get 1 prom and 1 graduation
india: you guys are getting graduation and proms?
Yeahh!
We don't even have a graduation ceremony
I'm sorry to hear that. Y'all are always welcome to take an exchange year to the states!
Same here, I’m Brazilian and honestly all I ever wanted was to have a prom and a graduation day. Here in Brazil is totally different. I cry every time I remember that 🥲
We weren't even allowed to stand on balcony of class
Frr, but we got farewell tho... it's not as good as prom in America but a spite and a speech from principal is a very good way to spend the afternoon 😻😻
2 years into high school: I absolutely hate it here. But I’m moving before junior year, so I’m determined to make the most out of my last two years.
As a recent graduate, I say you should do it. It may take some effort to put yourself out there, but in the end, you won’t regret it.
We literally spent half of freshmen and all of sophomore yr online...kinda sucks I barely know around my school
im a sophomore too and i moved this past year so i havent really met anyone or been to my school yet so im def going to make the most with our last years
I swear. This is exactly what im going through ! XD same story buddy
I don’t hate it but I definitely don’t feel like it’s been the best years I’ll look back on yet I feel the same I hope junior and senior year are amazing and filled of memories
I'm watching this, I'm 6 weeks away from graduating and I spent every single day at home. It's really painful
I literally feel your pain. And I honestly feel like I shouldn’t even blame myself because I never even had opportunities to experience big things or memories in high school, especially in grade 12 bc of covid :/ I just hope my uni experience will hopefully be better and make up for everything I missed as a teenager
Me too. It’s a sad feeling 😭
I was finally living my teenage life senior year I had made so many great memories until Covid 😢
@@JacobBlack2023 I HATE OBAMA AND THE LIberals and the teachers union it sucks so much. I hate them so much
you can blame obama and the teachers union and the teachers and the liberals they all wanted to stay home so they did this. I am sorry girl. please vote for Trump in 2024 and this will never happen again
graduating this year, we've spent the whole year on zoom. not a single day of school or memories. we really took school for granted :(
I remember my graduation.
My diploma was mailed to me and went to the bar by my self.
Great time
Why so?
@@katelinecarrasco2044 long list of complications
The only thing I remember is me eating lunch secretly in the library and never having a partner in projects.
Same
I never noticed this song was perfect for a senior montage until you used it lol
Watching this knowing I'll never have that much fun in high school because I live in a different country and my school is very strict
I'm sorry to hear that, what country is this?
I can not believe how fast high school has went i remember walking into my freshman year scared and now I'm a senior im literally gonna cry
i love this so much omg i hope this goes viral it’s so beautiful
look at you predicting the future :)
Most people say, college is the best time of your life. You have all the freedom, the struggles without them being overwhelming, it’s perfect. High school is the step below. Just because you’re graduating high school, doesn’t mean it’s over yet. I’m a freshmen and I’m savoring every day, try and take atleast 10 minutes a day thinking of things your great full and nostalgia.
im in love with this video. idek who these ppl are but it made me cry.
This video is a blessing. Thank you for sharing it with us. We are so happy you got through this and are still here learning and growing. So proud of you.
Omg! I love this so much! Thanks for being so candid about your experiences! High school was shitty for me too, I went through a lot of personal problems and never had close friend groups but as time went on, now in college, I do, and it's only getting up from here.
this video is a masterpiece alone, but after reading the description, it somehow makes the video, music, and your memories feel like I went through them with you. i'm so glad you are doing so much better ♥
wow I'm glad you made the video anyway it's really great but you ARE RESILIENT!!! And high school is really hard especially with our changes but thank you so much for your story, it helps to anyone & everyone struggling with anything going on because we know we've got people that we can relate to
The words in the description are beautiful. Thank you for sharing 🖤
Starting freshman year this coming school year this makes me feel sad and happy for what imma experience. Any last minute tips anyone?
Just be you, people come and go but never lose yourself, enjoy and keep each moment and memory close!!! Also have fun!!!! Don’t let people’s opinions take you down, you’ll find your people, and don’t take time trying to find a significant other, they’ll come in your path and you’ll know who’s right for you! Don’t always document things on your phone, sure it’s great to have pictures and post things sometimes but take in the little moments, trust me on that one! And try to stay motivated, it’s gonna get hard to want to study, go out of the house, get out of bed, everything but keep pushing! Also if people want you in their life they’ll make time for you! don’t feel pressured to do what everyone else does, lots of people think you have to wear or eat certain things, and if you don’t feel comfortable doing things like idk drinking, sneaking out or whatever you don’t have to do it, it’s ok not to be like everyone. I feel like imma start repeating things I’ve already said bc I talk to much but if theirs anything else you need advice on just lmk:)
the only peace of advice i could give it to be kind! But don’t be afraid to stand up for what you believe in. Friend groups aren’t everything. Just focus on you and the good ones will come around! Live in the moment, and just make the most of everything!
honestly- i just finished my freshman year, just enjoy it all and try to meet new people. it’s rly easy to get distracted and lose who u are but it’ll end up being great. (but algebra sucks lol)
Don’t do things without thinking about what it could do, because after you do it you can’t go back and change it as it’s already been done. Apply this specifically towards friendships and relationships.
I am too! I personally don’t have any tips except for (hearing from other people) to become friends with upperclassman and stay true to yourself.. like I’ve already became friends with some upperclassmen and I can tell, it will be so much better. goodluck, from one incoming freshman to another :)
Beautiful video!
To everyone struggling in school right now:
I know it‘s hard. I know sometimes you want to give up. But you didn‘t give up, you‘re still here!! I‘m so proud of you for making it this far. I promise you that happier times will come and that things will get better. I‘m waiting for the good times too but I‘m sure they will come for both of us. I love you and take care.
This video is more artistic and beautiful than it seems. So many deliberate choices blend together to create this wonderful viewing experience. Thank you, nina.
thank you for sharing your highlights, but even more, writing your story in the captions. I cannot imagine how difficult it was to face psychological trauma and to be in toxic environments so often. Even after all of that, you still chose to persevere and celebrate the good when reflecting...and that’s inspiring. soo thank you from a class of 2021 grad for such a touching & encouraging montage ♡
This is so adorable, I got goosebumps.
I’m class of 2022 and I still can’t believe I’m gonna be a senior. This hits hard
I was a senior this year but I already finished
I'm junior right now but next year I'll be a senior, class of 2023. Can't believe I'm going to have my last year of school.

Hey, i stumbled upon this video while making one about my own high school, do you mind if I use the office clip too?
Go ahead, I dont think she would mind.
hi! i don't own that clip, so of course! go ahead and use it :) xx
@@ninarifkin Heyy im thinking of making a video like this, what app did u use for this?
@@inayaaaamm I'm trying to find another one myself but the app I'm currently using is called Video Maker or Video Guru, it's free and let's you make long videos and make edits including music, it's my favorite so far - I've been searching for a while. Any of the higher quality editing apps I've found you have to pay for, hope that helps! Congrats to you on graduating too
I will be a senior in the up coming school year and this video made me cry. It made me realize how fast highschool went by and how much I'll miss everyone.
me a year ago : I’m gonna make the best out of these days.
COVID : hello
this video made me cry and reading your description as well. i love this video and i’m glad u posted it :) ❤️
I'm going into high school this year, and I am honestly so excited, but also sad because I know that I shouldn't have taken middle school for granted, and high school goes by super fast. good luck to everyone who's graduating, or has graduated! :D
And good luck to you for entering high school enjoy it while you can i just entered my second year in a new school and my experience is good so far so I’m positive yours will be as well
I’m crying so hard 😩
I wasn’t expanding me to say that I miss school one day but I do 🥲😭 I really miss everything in school 😩💗
idk why but I cried, I’m gonna be a senior and this reminded me of how fast time goes , loved ittt
Very heartwarming story that you wrote in the description, and a great video to go along with it. This is inspiring me to make one for myself which I think I’ll do.
I’m a junior in highschool on my last day of school. This video made me so emotional as a ton of my senior friends are leaving. I’m already reflecting on the past and it feels like yesterday I first met those guys. I wouldn’t be who I am without them. To show my respect I’m going to make the most out of my last year of high school next year
Same here. I’ve been watching all of these sad Grad videos because.. We’re next. Let’s make our Senior years the best! They all say it goes by so fast, so don’t forget to have no regrets. This is our final chance!
0:59 that shot is so cool and impressive. looking for inspiration for my senior year video and love this! thank you for sharing your memories with us and putting so much thought and effort into making something so special ❤
YooI I feel it man, got like 6 months left until the end. I'll miss it :(
I graduated a month ago. It does go by fast. I read your description and I'm sorry for what you went through but I'm sure you're in a better place now :)
Congrats! I hope the future is bright for you 🤍🤍
i miss these good old days in my high school w my friends. senior year are the best!
I read the description ❤️❤️ you’re a strong and amazing person
To everyone sad in the comments:
I don’t mean to downplay the pain of losing these moments to covid, especially when Disney channel etc. really hypes them up lol, but I assure you that you will have many peaks beyond high school ❤️ there’s so much to look forward too! Regardless of whether you go to college, work, whatever - you have yet to meet some of your favorite people, go to your new favorite places, and make some of your best memories. Get excited because you’re in for a lot of great things!
The description. Wow. Props to you, girlie! You got this!! ❤️
this makes me so sad but happy. i’m going to be a freshman in hs and i don’t want it to go by so fast.
i seriously can’t believe i graduate in less than 6 months, i still remember my freshman year like it was yesterday, getting lost in finding my way around the school
Ngl bt this gave me goosebumps
I miss High School :)
I studied in India school was zero fun it was always about “education” and we didn’t even have gym, but at least I didn’t have any of these annoying responsibilities and stress then😕
It's always about academics, sadly sports and extra-curriculars are not paid much attention to, which SUCKS
I’m just starting high school and I’m ready to make some memories
Make the most of it!! Even if you don’t have many friends or people to go out with, still go outside by yourself! Get comfortable with being by yourself, it definitely is a life changer! And honestly stay on your A game so you have higher chances of getting into any college or university you want, just take it day by day bc by the end of it, you won’t even stress or worry about the days when it was hard :)
All the people I met in school are all drifted away but they are still here in our hearts ❤❤
Almost 30, still no sign of adulthood. Still reminiscing about high school.
Today was my last day of year 12 in Australia this video made me cry, soo many memories to cherish
My ten year high school reunion and wow time flies man. Good old days lol can’t wait to see old friends again
The sad part is once you leave school you can't go back and relibe the memories
What a beautiful days, i love it
This damn near made me cry.
I spent my high school years studying so hard to end up in a decent college, but I didn't enjoy those years. Now I'm trying to enjoy college.
This gave me chill bumps
Back when I was in school I told myself time will go slow but it felt like it was yesterday. I had friends and fun moments but i didn’t like the work and essays but that’s the point of school. looking back school was actually fun for me especially my high school years but sadly it got cut off by COVID and didn’t go as expected and we didn’t have a graduation ceremony so we had to pick up our diplomas at school.
:((
loved what you wrote in the description and the video itself :'))
This video was good but your story of how high school treated you was great -Thanks for keeping it real
Class of 2019 here. As high school sinks further and further into distant memory, I find myself missing it even more. But times change. And you have to move on
Honestly I’m crying rn becuase it’s my last day of school on Thursday I’ve been in this school half my life
I'm glad it's okay now ... high school was not an easy experience for you but I hope you see this journey as a victory that made you stronger.
I'll be a junior in high-school this year, sophomore year sucks but the thing i enjoy the most is the memories I have made with my friends that have made me laugh till I cry and feel pure happiness in my heart. Even though the school work can be tough and teachers can be bad, cherish every moment of school, we only have so long and it goes faster every year.
Update: 1 month left of junior year. The year was by far the best academically but awful socially. Try your hardest to make friends, don't throw away relationships for the best grades. I did that and I regret it. For the first time in a long time I don't know what the next school year holds for me. It's going fast.
I love this song sm. Cause I relate to the lyrics so much, even the living in Minnesota
i love this so much !! you’re so talented and this song suits the video really well :)
i just graduated high school, class of 2021. i'm gonna miss it so much. they weren't lying, when they said high school goes by fast. I still remember my first day as a freshman and now i'm going to college. homecoming, cheer, football games, spirit weeks, prom, graduation, lunch breaks, field trips. Good memories. For those still in high school, enjoy, every little moments while it lasts :,)
True I graduated in 2019 an I miss it already it’s only been 3 years😭😭
can’t wait for my senior year this next school year especially since my last three years of high school were practically ruined due to bad mental health and then the virus, so i’ll make the absolute most out of this one. 💗
And here is me from Iran watching the video that none of those moments ever happened in my high school 🙂💔
I wish I could spend my teen years like u all. :)
I'm sorry to hear that. I hope besides that you are doing well and life is nice
@@hinklefamily1831 That's so nice of you... Thanks♥

This makes me be excited for my upcoming senior year
On my way to the good ol days :’)
The description box is so inspiring 💛
Ikr
I just started my freshman year and I want to enjoy it just like this but my mom wants me to be homeschooled forever I don't have real friends...I just wanna be free and go to school
American school seems so fun cause in England we just have a prom at the end of year 11 and that’s it.
Like we don’t have dances or cheerleaders and we have to wear a uniform
I'm sorry to hear that. You're always welcome to take an exchange year here!
UK kinda sucks sorry for you
i read the description box and i’m sorry you had to deal with that i’ve never seen u or any of ur videos but i feel sorry u had to experience that
nvm i just realized this is the only video you’ve posted
Class of 2016 here and man, high school was something else. It was full of love and hate, and now it's just bittersweet in a good way. Being with my group of friends smoking and rollerblading, the trips, got to be with my crush for a good bit and got to experience other relationships, the late night group phone conversations, feeling the future was mine, and just everything else that made those bittersweet good ol' days amazing. What's crazy as that now after almost 6 years I don't even talk to any of em anymore except for one, I'm in a completely different area, new girlfriend, new friends, new passions and hobbies, etc. For those still in high school I would say enjoy it while you can because after high school AND college, shit is just different. Gonna be 24 years old in May and man I can't believe how much has come and gone and come and gone and come again in these last six years for me. Everything will change for you, and that's okay 👍enjoy it, even the new.
I’m class of 2019 an even though it’s only been 3 years I still get nostalgic by watching these videos. I really do wish I can relive those 4 years of high school but those days are gone forever😭
I'm the class of 2010. I miss it a lot. Like really a lot. The popularly, the people, the drama, the love, the spirit. Wish time travel was possible. Having over 1000 people scream for you at the prep allies. My phone NEVER stopped ringing. I was a living God. Then you realize after your final day senior year, that door behind you closed forever. Your presence in person is no longer there. My name is still on the banners in the gym even after 11 years. That's my legacy. I created my own. Make yours happen to.
@@eu9ne that's what everyone thinks. It's quite the contrary actually. Didn't compete in any sport. Not one. For some reason, I just became hella popular. Still not sure why to this day.
This is so good I want to make my own now!
Yk what high school was hell but I miss my damn friends bc they made that shit bearable
I'm going to high school in september, and I'm kinda scared and kinda excited and im kinda sad because the next time I will be the oldest of the school, Ill be a senior.....
Coming into high school, my dad told me it can be some of the worst 4 years of your life, or the best. For me, I made it the best. Make sure you make it the best too.
U lucky fuck have fun and enjoy it
295 days til graduation
I hated school, but it was fun!! Pe class, friends, messing around, meeting new people, awkward moments
Loved your video and i hope your doing ok right now stay strong💖💖💖
When I say I cried
hi nina, i don't know if you'll ever see this cuz ik i'm late and this wonderful video was posted a year ago. I read ur description and I really wanted to thank you for being so strong, so brave, and so courageous. i appreciate all your efforts! thank you so much for not choosing the other way. i'm so proud of you!! and thank you sm for being my idol!!!! incase anyone hasn't said this to you truly, i love you
I graduated elementary this year, I need middle school and high school still I’m happy I have a lot more time as a kid
Cherish it!
Enjoy it! I’m going to be a freshmen and although people say hs is a lot better then middle school, I still miss it:)
Hey enjoy your time. You're gonna be surprised by how fast times go by and how much can change in the span of a year. Hang out with good people and don't become a therapist friend. It is tiring and emotionally draining. Also just be kind because if you're not chances are you're gonna feel terrible after awhile. Also just have lots of fun try to hang out with friends after school and don't let people take advantage of you. Also you're a kid don't get caught up with boys to much and don't make them your world or some stuff like that. So many of my friends learned the hard way so yeah. Anyway I wish you the best of luck and be careful and I hope your middle school years go better than mine!
Also don't let people in your grade or older people convince you to do drugs. I've seen many of my friends become addicted to it.
@@butokum1171 alright thanks a lot
as an upcoming sophomore, enjoy every minute of it
I love your videos and keep up the hard work!
Can’t imagine actually liking school but good for you lol, looks a lot more fun than mine
American schools looks full of excitement place and here is my school always promising us to be discipline 😭
Still I miss my school, this covid had ruined my last year at school
Class of 2019 checking in. Wow I’m speechless. Well done
Class of 2019💯💯
This is amazing!
Got about 2 seconds into this and I cried lol
im not even in high school but i will be in 2 years. this video still kinda made me tear up though because i know that when i get into high school, im going to have all these great memories that im gonna miss so badly
Im telling you those 4 years of high school were the best years of my life if I could relive them I would without hesitation. I just hoping the pandemic doesn’t ruin it for you😢
Class of 2021 had it the worst. Our best years were taken away from us
I graduated in 2019 which was the last normal year. I’m sorry to hear that I can’t imagine how that feels. I enjoyed every single moment while your best years were taken from you😢
Im about to start my freshman year and i cant wait
Sameee
I am going to do this I’m a junior already and I think that it would be cool to look back at it 🤙🏻☺️
