I feel like a normal kid for once. I don't care when I do my homework and I don't mind if I bomb a test... this craziness has been going on for over a month! I think there are a lot problems with this mind set in the middle of my junior year, but I can't help it; I really enjoy feeling a balance within my life due to this change.
Don't get me wrong, I still care about my grades, I'm just not grade crazy anymore. (I mean come on, I'm not that stupid to start failing all my classes.) If anyone is trying to unlock this secret, I have some ideas that might help.
1. Know the consequences for you're actions. If you feel like you didn't prepare for a test then don't be crushed with your grade. Accept your actions, learn from them, and move on.
2. All you can do is 'show them what you know'. There's only so much you can do, so don't be too hard on yourself for only being human; just try your best!
3. Realize that in 20 years you're not going to remember what you got on that test in biology, math, or English, but the experiences you had with your classmates and friends. Make some time to enjoy being young.
I hope my realization of school and grades has helped someone out because it really isn't as stressful as it seems to be.
