College

October and November of Senior year can be one of the most stressful times in most students lives. The time to decide what they plan to do for the rest of their lives. Going to college sets the pace for the rest of our lives. It determines our futures so of course we want to make the best possible decision for ourselves. The pressure put on our backs to go out of state can be overwhelming. We are still young and don't know how to handle ourselves. The thought of being put out there in the world in a new state not knowing a single person can be very scary. Between the infamous Common App, grade point averages, and ACT and SAT scores I am sure every high school senior can agree we wish we had more time. Senior year is meant to be the time to enjoy the last of everything. The last time we will go to homecoming, our last time rooting for the bulldogs at the football game, and the last time we will every play on that specific sports team, but we spend it on college trips and filling out countless applications. It is very difficult to handle this stress on top of all of our homework and maintaining good senior year grades.
