Lately, I've been feeling emotionally conflicted about school starting again this fall. On one hand, I am very excited to see all my friends again; albeit in masks. On the other hand, I feel a greatly increasing sense of apprehension for my junior year of high school as summer break rapidly comes to a close.
To think that this year of school plays a key role in my future as a student makes this sense of apprehension much, much larger; I'm not sure if I'm well-prepared enough for this year or not; the previous year of online school felt quite diluted in terms of difficulty, which makes me feel unready for a full-fledged year of school.
Motivation also plays a key factor in school; as long as you have motivation, you can accomplish any goal you have in mind. However, if you lose sight of your goal and becoming de-motivated, you will have much difficulty putting yourself back on the right track. This year I have resolved to try and keep sight of my goals at all times so as to not lose motivation and burnout halfway through the school year.
All in all, I feel a bittersweet feeling as I enter this school year.
