I’m in my
final year of secondary and things are beginning to get very serious and very stressful.
We all know that in times of hardship we have to try and keep our head up high
and not sink beneath the waves. However, it’s easier said than done. It’s like
none of my teachers help!!! All they do is pile on more and more homework
expecting me to do it in the two days I have to relax…And so the waves get higher and like all
other 15/16 year olds, we are drowning ourselves in problems and stress.
In recent
news we’ve seen that grade boundaries have gone up, meaning much more is
expected of our generation! We have to
grow up yet still be kids for the comfort ability of “adults”? I’m failing
to understand how this works and the pressure is on for me to know how NOW!
In all of
this you can lose yourself, lose direction and lose hope.
I’ve noticed my attitude is sinking deeper
into negativity and I sometimes don’t realise how hard it is stay positive. For
instance, maths is not my best friend, nor my associate; we can litro call
maths my enemy! But putting myself down about it isn’t going to help! All I’m doing
is sinking deeper and deeper while everyone else seems to be walking on water.
