Welcome to My Senior High School Journey!

By: Layag, Cristina Yvonne

I have a lot of things in mind to write about that might actually bore you but I’ll say it anyway.

My Senior High School Journey.

First days are always filled with excitement and it makes the day a nerve wreck. Overlapping new faces, staying in the safe zone (comfort zone) and having a low profile. But apparently that didn’t came to me. I love learning so much (I actually just missed it during the summer vacation) that I unintentionally draw attention to myself. I immediately been entrusted to became a leader in a group. Luckily, I wasn’t given the responsibility to be a classroom officer. I mean, that would have been a lot of work than you think it would.

Anyway, Senior High School made me realize how unprepared my state is. If it wasn’t for K to 12, I would be sitting in a college classroom and unsightly be pressured–stressed with all the sudden academic upgrades. Yet, I was spared with all that and became a grade 11 student. Things are the same, difficult, but I’m hanging in there. I do believe in myself more since my classmates and teachers do encourage me. I’m very thankful of having supportive parents, not straining me with expectations. But I do very much give effort in things I do to make them proud.

Studying as a Senior High School is a gift to gain high level knowledge with ease and accuracy. Friends comes in as a bonus. My friends back from my old schools are in good terms with me and I keep in touch with them. It actually make me at ease. New friends are the real challenge. I think I made a few now and I’m in good terms with all of my classmates so things will come eventually.

Senior High School is meaningful, its the time of your life that you’ll never forget, from the lessons that will make your brain cell bleed out, impossible tasks to be accomplished in limited time, teachers that will challenge you everyday, classmates and people that will make you realize how challenging it would be in the real world in the near future, and friends including your family that will be there for you when you needed comfort.

Yes. Here it is. And here we go.
