Trying to be Perfect Senior Year

When this year started I really did not feel like a senior at all, it was a weird feeling know that my classmates and I will be gone this time next year and some of us may never see each other again. So I wanted to make this year a great year and try to get along with everyone and have everyone like me, so that I will be remembered as a genuinely nice person. Once I had this in my head, I had to be absolutely the nicest to everyone and get along with everyone.

Once reality set in, I soon realized that I can not get along with everyone and not everyone will like me even though it is senior year. I want to be remembered as a really nice person, but one can only do so much. Then there is the thought that why do I even care what my classmates think of me because I will never have to see them again in my life. It goes back and fourth and it gets hard to deal with.

I have come to realize that my best friends are all I need this year and that we will remain close even after senior year, and that I just need to try to be as nice as I can this year to other people. And I can't do anything to make them think of me as a genuinely nice person when we all graduate. People think what they want to think.   


Until next time,

Homecoming Week!

It's a week full of excitement, happiness, and creativity! Since Monday, the whole student body has been able to dress up each day for the theme of the day for example, monday was decade day so my friends and dressed up like 80s girls! We have all dressed up everyday and it has been so much fun!


This week has been a great week with no college stress or stress in general, I have really enjoyed it. I wish every week could be like this, there is just nothing that compares to a fall week with the big homecoming game on friday and the dance on saturday! I am also a varsity cheerleader, so the team is doing a big pep rally for the entire school and we all hope it goes great and that the student body loves it!


As for next week, it will be back to the regular schedule and back to the stress but I am glad that this week has been fun and I cannot wait to see how this weekend goes! 


Have a Great Weekend,




Katie

Another Crazy, Stressful Day....

In my blog, there will probably be some positive happy posts and some negative, unhappy posts. Like I said in my previous posts, I am going to write about what I have been stressing out about since the beginning of this year which started August 9, 2010. 


Senior year, has been by far a very very stressful year for me. There are just SO many things that are thrown at us from day 1. I was not expecting this at all either! The thing about it is, these decisions are all extremely important and they are also decisions that effect your life because, college is the starting point of your life in a way. Or at least that is how I am taking it, I feel this extreme amount of pressure and it is hard to deal with it this early in the year, it truly caught me off guard....


I am really hoping that this year's pressures and stresses calm down, I feel like all the seniors could use a little bit of it personally! 




Until the next time!

How is Senior Year So Far?

I now know how to work a blog and what I want my blog to be about! I am very excited to share with the world, my advice on how to get through Senior Year. My advice will be about ways to cope, get through the stress, and to focus on Senior Year. 


So far, Senior Year has been a crazy ride! It has recently calm down though. I will start from the beginning and write a little about what I have gone through each week. 


Before my Senior Year started, I had these AMAZING expectations of this year. I went in thinking this year was going to be the best year of my life and absolutely nothing can go wrong, little did I know? So many different things have gone wrong or have gone different according to my "plan". 


This has been one of the hardest things that I have had to realize this year, and had to accept and it is getting better since the beginning of this year. So throughout this year, I will share some of the other struggles and what is true and what is not about Senior Year 2011 :) 




Until next time,


Kay Hay
