Senior year stressers

Hi! This is my first blog so please treat me kindly hahah. Today I want to talk about one of the scariest parts of my life thus far, senior year! I started my senior year in a new school on the other side of the county. That by itself wasn't too scary because my old high school, complete with friends and football games were just a city away. Initially I was nervous but optimistic and I was pleasantly surprised to find I enjoyed the new school quite a bit. Then my happy bubble was burst when I learned that we were moving again, and this time it was the other side of the state instead of the county. Again, I felt nervous but optimistic, this time my optimism was not rewarded. I did NOT like my current high school for a variety of reasons. I disliked it so much that I went all the way back to my first high school for homecoming and still plan to do the same for prom. The people were not inviting, the food got up from the tray and ran, the guidance counselors only come in twice a week and they don't have study hall! I was ready to find a way to move back where I'd come from when I started indoor track, and thank God I did. In a place where there is no sense of community or camaraderie, a team was just what the doctor ordered. As time has progressed I've learned the names of most of the sprinters, people wave in the halls, ask if I'm okay when I miss class, walk through the lunch line and compare homework with me. I suppose all I needed was to find a niche that fit me. If you ever find yourself in a situation like mine, I recommend a school club or team, community service or a job where you will meet different people and find where you fit. Hope all you seniors out there enjoy this last year because we only get to once. ^_^ ~Katy
