If I could go back in time to the beginning of the semester my message to myself would be to not procrastinate and enjoy my senior year while I can. When in school I tend to procrastinate ALOT! If I have an assignment to do I wait a few days before it is due to get it started. I’ve learned many times that doing work at the last minute can be be overwhelming but I can not seem to get myself to start on assignments early. In the beginning of the semester going back I would have made sure that I pushed my self hard and made sure that I started all my assignments early. Hopefully going into college I will learn this and use it. I know that if I do this in college than I will be more stressed than I was in high school. I would also give myself a few encouraging words about not giving up. So many times in high school I have found assignments to be too challenging so I do not do them. I know you’re thinking why would I, but sometimes the load of work is overwhelming. For example, I was taking chemistry 2 AP and every one in the class struggled. The teacher would give us homework but instead of asking for help I would just not do it.
Now looking back I see that my senior year is ruined and I took it for granted. Due to the corona virus I will not be having a high school graduation. I also can not do any of my senior activities such as the picnic. the senior trip, the senior brunch, or graduation parties. The whole year I complained and said that I could not wait until my senior year was over, now I want nothing more but to be able to go back and finish. I wish that I would have enjoyed my year while I can and not rushed it til its end. I wish that I was able to enjoy those bitter sweet memories of walking across the stage and hearing your family screaming your name with happiness. If I could do it all again I would.
