Hello there! Its been quite a while since I’ve been here. The last thing I posted… oh well, it’s in the distant past, now, eh? Anywho, moving on. For many who are reading this, you may or may not have experienced the life changing events of being a freshman. Now, don’t serenade me with questions, asking me why I said Life Changing. Theres a reason behind this, and I will eventually get to it. So pay close attention when I type out this hopefully, lengthy blog. Here, I go !
Entering the Freshman year was no easy task. Walking through the halls of an unfamiliar territory is as frightening as walking through a crowded store, trying to find a family member. I remember scanning the walls, the people, the way they talk and walked and wondering if I could fit in so easily as they did. The first week of high school seemed to last forever. We were constantly pushed into activities, work and spotlight that threaten to “make” or “break” us. Some saw this spotlight as an opportunity to up their social standings, others avoiding it at any costs. As for me, I leaned more to the others avoiding it.
By the time the week went by, and to my relief, we were as good as forgotten. I remember feeling lonely the first week of school due to different lunch times with friends. But that changed when my schedule did. Along the way, came obstacles that you should probably be cautious about when you enter highschool. There are three things I’ll tell you. One, being close to your teachers is a definite up and totally helps you when it comes to grades! Two, try not to involve yourself in so much drama, and avoid people you KNOW you won’t get along with. And three, enjoy your years in a proper manner. Don’t go partyparty over everything but don’t be uptight either. Learn to enjoy, but still be able to compromise those last questions on the homework. Another thing is, keep your eyes open and your ears attentive, there are so many opportunities in the world, you don’t want to miss them.
FIRST TEN RULES YOU SHOULD KNOW
1) There will always be obstacles. The best you can do is, face it head on. Avoid it later and it’ll pop back up.
2) Be careful with what friends you make, and be sure to have one close friend you can ALWAYS rely on.
3) Boys. Girls. SCHOOL WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU, LIKE THEY WILL.
4) Dress appropriately, or at least how you feel or want to be treated. If you want to be taken serious, at least make an effort to look serious.
5) DO NOT PROCASTINATE. It will come back to bite you in the butt.
6) Don’t get involved with problems. or drama. or anything you know will get you into trouble.
7) Listen to the upperclassmen(SENIORS MAINLY.)
Find the best bathroom and drinking founting.
9) keep your schedule with you, the first week of school.
10) Know your goals and don’t share them ! (:
