Highschool is certainly something….throughout my years I found it to be some the worst but also some of the most exhilarating moments of my life, even so I still find it to be an overall mundane and exhausting phase of my life and certainly will NOT be missed. Here’s a quick journey of what my years have been like.

Freshman: this is probably the most fun I’ve ever had, this year was certainly a chaotic journey of events. Not as chaotic as junior year but…..we’ll get to that later. I remember myself, scrawny, naïve and gullible I thought I was on top of the world and honestly, I was full of myself because everything was going for me. But unfortunately, this year didn’t come without its trials and tribulations. What I faced was mainly drama focused and I decided to try to cut myself out as much as I could to avoid major percussions, thankfully I was able to avoid such events and what could’ve occurred to me was on display on the last day of school.

Sophomore: Sophomoric perfectly described how I was during this year, I also thought highly of myself during this year and I was full of confidence for who I was but also more naïve, this year was mainly stressful as this was one of the only years I failed a class which heavily derailed me off my perfect score and my mindset of having the best grades possible. I also missed many chances of things I could be apart of as I was too lazy to do anything besides my work. Besides that the year was pretty fun as I got to meet a lot of new people and learn a lot of new things.

Junior: As you could guess…..this year was an absolute nightmare….where do I even begin? First day of school I tripped in front of the entire classroom first period, Second day of school I almost get suspended for chewing gum, and third day of school I get placed in the worst math class possible. This year was an absolute roller coaster of emotions and tribulations, to make it worse the 3 worst classes of the day were lined up Infront at the start of the day, it was like it was done on purpose to make me feel as miserable as possible. Not to mention this is the only year where I failed TWO classes which already threw me off rail and made me honestly not want to work and I just started to not care about my grades anymore…this is where I ended up getting all C’s and two F’s which meant ultimately I had to waste my time doing summer school, on the flip side I decided to join track and ended making a lot of memories and overall in mist of dread I had a somewhat good time in the end.

Senior: my final and last year of high school, compared to previous years, this one was by far the most tame. I felt somewhat at ease with my grades and actually felt somewhat relaxed because I had very little to worry about. But something kicked in….Senioritis….and yes it is real. It kicked in a few months into school and progressively worse and worse. As of the time I’m writing this I barely have the desire or need to do anything related to school, even driving to school feels unbearably mundane and exhausting….while I am doing track which got cut short due to an injury that I have received….this year was pretty mundane and bland but at least I never have to come to this wretched school again!

So that’s basically it! The journey of Carlos Landis’s high school adventures! Funny how that title sounds more exciting then the actual story somehow! In summary high school was a wacky, dumb, mundane, irritating adventure! And I cant be happier to leave in less then a month! Though…I do have some things I regret and wish I could’ve done such as be active in clubs, start sports earlier and overall just get more involved instead of just focusing on grades, if I had been presented with that mindset earlier I would’ve had a lot better time and overall be in a better position then I am now, but honestly at this moment….I don’t really care, and I’m ready to be an adult and go out into the real world! If any lowerclassmen are reading this….take my advice and get involved, you’ll have a lot more fun that way and hopefully have a lot more fun then I did! But also remember its only 4 years of your life, and shouldn’t really be the highlight of your life. Enjoy it but in the end remember, its only high school. Welp this is farewell I certainly won’t be missing high school anytime soon or in the future! And lowerclassman…take my advice! Or not! I don’t care!
