Junior Year

This year is my third year in high school; junior year. At first, I was a little overwhelmed at the thought of being a junior. I thought that I was going to abhor the piles among piles of work that I would have to deal with along with sports. No matter how hard I tried to stay optimistic about beginning the new year, it didn't work. The day came so quickly, it's almost like when a family member knocks on your door out of the blue to tell you that they're moving in. I wasn't ready. I woke up early that morning to prepare myself for the start of the year. On the first day, I started with my worst class, math. I've never been a math person, but it was better that I had it first so that I could get it out of the way. In my mind, I was freaking out even though I never showed it. 
The class  wasn't that bad, though and I feel like I actually learned something this year. That doesn't mean that I'm an expert at solving math equations, but I improved. The other classes weren't that bad either, I had Spanish II, AICE Global Perspectives, and English III Honors. Those classes were a like a nice walk in the park.  I only found myself crying about how hard everything was only a million times. I'm kidding, but I did have that, "Oh, no!" Moment at 1:00 in the morning for not doing my homework because I am very forgetful.  That wasn't the best night, but I still got my work finished, that's all that matters.
   Now, that I'm in my second semester and the classes have changed, I feel like I will handle things a lot better. I've made many mistakes that I will not make ever again because of the consequences that come after that. I feel like Karma has loads of fun watching people suffer after they make a mistake. 
She's sitting there like, "Oh hello! You messed up. How can I make you regret every single thing that you have done in your entire life?" 
So, I'm going to be cautious of what I say and do to be sure that Karma doesn't prey on me again; she can find a new toy to chew on for now. 
    On a different note, I'm really excited for this semester. I have a schedule where I'm actually interested in every single class. I have, AICE Psychology, AICE English Language, Anthropology, and AICE Marine Biology. It's going to be a difficult semester, but I'm ready to take these classes head on, like a bull going after the red flag. I'm not going to lie, I am nervous about the exams at the end of the year, but I have full faith in my teachers for teaching the curriculum in a way that will help not just me, but all of the students succeed. If things don't go as planned, then, that's perfectly fine because it's the beginning of the semester, so I can fix it.
