As senior year is coming to an end, I’m getting more and more nervous, not that much because i’m graduating, but because of all of the work that I have to do and turn in. For graduation I am also nervous though because I am going to be done with high school and I have been going to school for basically my whole life, 12 years to be more specific, and I have a feeling that college is going to be more different as well as harder.
Another reason that I’m nervous for is that I have been living with my parents my whole life and it's going to feel weird yet exciting not being with them and getting my own place. Also, it's not that I’m not happy that I’m graduating, but I just get scared for graduation sometimes since I don’t think that I am ready to go into the real world just yet. Because i’m not good at decision making and stuff like that, it takes me forever to make a decision, and if I do most of the time I don’t feel confident with it. Another thing is that I’m not also not ready to pay for all of my bills and having to pay for everything. It gives me a headache just by thinking about all this, it also makes me want to cry since I don’t have it all planned out, and most people that I know do.
Some of the preparations that I have taken so far for post graduation are that I started applying to colleges like PC and COS, and registering for my classes. And I have also been looking in were I might work while in college. I was thinking, since I am going to CNA, which is a program that prepares you with the necessary skills to become a certified nursing assistant, If I pass the state test that officially makes you a certified nurse assistant, then I might work like in a hospital or something like that and be working by night and be going to school by day.
I still need to make a decision on what college I am going to go to, and then what University I am going to transfer to after I finish my two years at a community college. But first, I need to pass all of my classes that I am in right now in order to graduate. I am trying to stay focused and staying on pace, there are just so many distractions that keep me from doing so, but I know what my priorities are and i’m going to persevere through all of this.
I am most looking forward to just have a little time off of school and not being stressed so much of everything that is going on, and i'm looking forward to having not a perfect life, but a happy life.
Something that I am grateful and happy for looking back at senior year is that I persevered through all of the obstacles that were being thrown at me. And I am now a stronger, confident and more determined person than I was before I started coming to Lindsay High School
