Ever since Senior year has started, all the people in my grade have been receiving the “college talk” in classes and at home. No matter where we are, college is the topic. Even during lunch my classmates talk about it. Before I was calm about the topic of college, but ever since it’s been the topic around me 24/7, I can’t help but start to feel anxious. Usually I handle stressful situations well, but the idea of college and getting rejected has caused me to kinda freak out and worry about applying to schools. Out of my entire high school career, applying to college is my challenge, and it’s even affected my academic achievement by having me reflect on what I’ve done which then leads me to stay up late and struggle to stay awake during classes.
