Life as a high school student isn't always as easy as
parents think it may be. They always say, “I did what you’re doing in high
school back when I was young.” However, they always forget that the standards
are changing as the bars are getting higher and higher. Life of a high school
student is made up of the 3 parts, including academics, a social life, and
other activities.
Students must be able to balance their social life and their
academic one. Being a high school student, academic studies is one of the most
important things because without a good education, how would one get into a
good college?
Students become stressed out as they worry about the future
and where it will lead them. As high school is an important road to collage,
students stress out as they take on loads of AP and honors classes. As us sophomores
just recently had articulation, I went absolutely crazy trying to decide what
classes to take as I knew my decisions would
be paving the path of my future.
Each class comes a challenging course, including loads of
homework which students try to find the time to finish before the due date. As
a package, late nights are also included as students are at their heights
buried in homework. As each day of the week passes by, we all just wish it was
the weekend already so we could relax and have some down time. On some days, I
wish that I was anyone but myself because I just wouldn't want to deal with the
responsibilities I had.
Despite all the stress that high school might cause, it’s
also considered one of the best parts of life as it filled with unforgettable experiences.
I sometimes wish that time would stop so I am able to slow down to take a
breather to realize how fast everything is moving and appreciate the adventures
of high school.
