Finals

Finals are coming up right around the corner, and I am more stressed than ever. I already feel unprepared, even though we still have 3 more weeks, including break. I don’t understand why humans are required to put in so much work to academics when, in the end, we all die. Obviously, the skill of being knowledgeable in life is important, but why does it have to drag to this level? There are some finals I am confident about, while others I have no idea how I am even going to start reviewing the material. The fact that we put everything we’ve learning in a semester in one test is crazy. But to be honest, I always stress as much as I can about it and end up doing fine. It’s just the concept of studying for every single class. I’m just going to accept my fate and pray that I do well. Test-taking isn’t my strongest quality, but I know I am capable, and if I can do it as a freshman, I can for sure do it as a sophomore.

I’m Bored

I’m sitting in journalism class right now. It’s the first period. I woke up exactly an hour ago. Currently, it’s 8:25 in the morning. I keep getting caught up in a daydream about sleeping in. I usually have a very easy time coming up with a topic for my weekly blog, but something is different today. I can’t focus on anything. I rake my brain but it keeps coming up empty. I assume that this is just senioritis infecting me.

I wish I had gotten more sleep last night. I remember telling myself that staying up an extra hour would be fine. Sadly, this ignorant decision has come back to bite me. I can’t believe it’s only 8:30 a.m. and I get out at 5:00 p.m. I cannot comprehend that I’m not going home for eight hours and thirty minutes. These school days are torturously long.

For the last two hours of the day, I’ll be playing soccer down on the field. Honestly, I enjoy sports. I enjoy how being active makes me feel. I would enjoy sports a lot more if they were earlier in the day. Although I do enjoy that sports occur in the cool of the setting sun, I would much rather have practice start and end an hour earlier. I only say that because I want to go home earlier to have more personal time. It’s exhausting to be surrounded by people all day. I barely have any time to reset after school.
