Are you ready to be a high school student and enjoy a journey named “youth”? It may be unfamiliar but excited after striding forward to a brand new phase. Needless to say, being a freshman has a lot to confront and learn. Senior high school is an extremely different world from junior high school. A number of unknown things or difficulties will emerge. As a senior, I am going to share some experience and provide some advice to you.
First of all, it is advisable to be open-minded all the time. After getting into a senior high school, what you should attend to is not only the trivial things about yourself but also the events around the society or even the international issues. In this case, you may discover various unprecedented thoughts and knowledge. Being open-minded can help you learn more and get more. Never underestimate the harm of a biased and narrow mind. It will let you be isolated from new knowledge and be trapped in a restricted prison of ignorance.
On the other hand, manage your time well. Because you may want to participate in some school clubs and become busy then. For the sake of doing well on clubs, it is possible to occupy your time and energy for studying. Nonetheless, the schoolwork is so important that it is not appropriate to be ignored. As a result, you can set up a schedule and make an arrangement of schoolwork and extracurricular activities. Balancing your schoolwork and entertainment is definitely necessary.
Third, holding a positive attitude toward everything is important as well. In the future, you may encounter depressing difficulties, including peer pressure, bottlenecks of studying and so on. For instance, sometimes you just have to swim with the tide and follow the fashion because other classmates or schoolmates are doing the same things. Moreover, frankly speaking, schoolwork is much harder in senior high school. All you have to do is be attentive in class and ask the questions you don’t understand. Don’t lose your confidence when the questions are gradually increasing. That’s a normal phenomenon. Not until you bump into the challenges will you realize how to cope with them. You have to cultivate the ability to tolerate the pressure and change the frustration into turning points.
All in all, I consider that being open-minded, managing your time well, and holding a positive attitude toward everything, are necessary for being a senior high school student. But what is more important is that you have to experience and undergo by yourselves. If you retain a happy mood to meet and greet the life of being a senior high student, it will lead to a wonderful ending. Wish you had a significant high school life!
