The Finish Line

Three months. Give or take a couple weeks, that’s all we have left before we finish this school year. This means end of the year performances, competitions, finals, etc. For seniors, this also means college acceptance (or rejection) anxiety, figuring out how to pay for college, and trying to make the most fun out of the last few months of high school. All this leads to a whole bunch of stress. And stress usually attracts all those unpleasant situations like breakouts, weight gain, sickness, or choosing unhealthy ways of feeling ‘better’.
Most people see the end of the year as being “slack”, so senioritis kicks in, and some people cannot deal with the pressure of so much cumulative work that they get lazy and give up. But there couldn’t be a worse time to slack than the final stretch. That’s like a runner slowing down at the last few feet of the marathon, so close to the finish line! So the best thing you can do is stay consistent or else you start to burn out, and that can become really unhealthy. Pace yourself. Know your limits. Whether it is with your workload, extracurriculars, or even friends.
