This article isn’t for juniors or seniors finalizing their plans for the future. It’s for freshmen and sophomores navigating their way through the world of college planning. Everyone has their dreams about what they want to do when they grow up and which colleges they want to attend. For many, the high school years fly by and those dreams become closer than they ever imagined.
When you start high school, everyone is going in different directions. You come to find that there are cliques forming and you’re not sure which “clique” to join. My best advice to you is to stay neutral. Make friends in all places and everything will work itself out. When I first started high school, some of my friends drifted towards the “preps” while others became total “jocks.” I tried my best to keep in touch with everyone and leave myself unlabeled. What ended up happening was no one could be unhappy with me.
When you first walk through those doors, it seems as though there are a million things racing through your mind and a million faces staring at you. Don’t sweat it! Starting high school is just another stop on that wild journey called life. As you look around, you see sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Don’t forget, all of those people went through the same thing that you are going through just a year or two ago.
What exactly does the word “sober” or “abstemious” mean? Well, it all depends on your experiences and your attitude. In today’s world, it may seem impossible to avoid alcohol, drugs, and other harmful substances. Remember, however, you’re not alone. If you want to remain “clean” or “sober” you have to stop worrying so much about what others think.
