Senior Year

I know I already posted today, but I just remembered that school starts on Monday. I have a few thoughts about this.

I'm pretty excited. I'm going to be a senior this year, which is absolutely impossible. I feel like I'm still a little kid and I have years left of high school, but sadly I only have about nine months left of little to no responsibility. I only have electives left this year, which is pretty fun. I'm taking a lot of English and writing classes, along with astronomy, criminology, forensic science, and a few law classes. (Yes, those are the ones I chose to take.) It's going to be busy, but it will be a good kind of busy. I'm happy to be able to see my friends again. My social life this summer has consisted of Garrin Williams, Ian Rich, and Dylan Johnson (and I really only saw Garrin two or three times).

I'm also terrified. Most of you know I have pretty bad social anxiety. Last year I had to drop most of my classes because I couldn't be at school for more than two periods without having a panic attack (crying, not breathing, throwing up, glorious things like that). This year I have to catch up, so along with more online classes, I'm taking full days of school. I'm so scared that I'll have more panic attacks and I won't perform as well as I want to.

Even though I'm scared, I'm determined to be in the best health mentally that I can be. I've set up a few plans to achieve this goal (such as a daily gratitude journal, daily scripture reading, prayer, and keeping my body healthy and rested).

Wish me luck, guys!
(Heaven knows I need it.)
