Not Ready for Stress

NOTE: Before scrolling this web page down, remember that this post is not to scare ongoing sophomores, incoming sophomores and soon to be HS students of AC. These are just my opinions and insights of what second year (or even HS years)  really is. DON'T GET INFLUENCED.


After two months of summer vacation, here I am, doing school works once again. It's pretty wierd that few weeks before school time, I felt no excitement at all, though I already had my books, notebooks, and all. Well, there was slight of excitement, not to study and do assignments but to see my friends again ( I missed them so much). For the many years I've been studying here in AC ( eight years, to be exact) it is the first time that I felt like not going to school. Even though I have been experiencing boredom most of my summer days, I still prefer staying at home. It is because I tried to list all the school activities this school year for the sophomores. And guess what I found out.


- Medicine Drive
- Food Sale
- Play Festival w/ modifications ( ! )
- Cheerdance Competition ( ! )
- Intramural 2012
- Integration ( event with investigatory projects again)
- NAT ( ! )


Oh, dude, seriously! I mean, we had some of these in the previous year, but, hello, AC goes coed! 

Well, for some students, these are all fun. Yes, they are. But before having fun, one has to undergo stress and sacrifice. Let me repeat that, stress and sacrifice.


So, what I can say is, WOAH! That's all. They are not new to me... thanks to my sister. But still, I can't stop thinking how to make these activities a success. Some events happen anually ( such as Med. Drive, Intrams and Integration) but some, not for all ( like the NAT, food sale and PlayFest). The big thing here is the Play Festival WITH SOME MODIFICATIONS. Yes, with some modifications. And also the NAT ( National Achievement Test) which stressed me when I was in grade 6, and will surely pressure me again this coming February or March. 


But then again, I got no choice but to be here. I am in school, forcing myself to love what I am doing because I am a learner, and nobody can ever change that. Ofcourse as usual, new cassmates, teachers and classroom. I can say I am totally not ready for stress. As in TOTALLY... SERIOUSLY. But that's what I am doing. I can't imagine myself having eyebugs again ( but I think I have). I am not ready to stay late at night preparing for class presentations and all. But what can I do? Nothing, right? I just have to got with the flow. Someday... hopefully someday... I'll get used to this... get used to stress.
