It’s senior year. The previous year the instructors warned us about “senior malaise”, when all the seniors suffer a marked drop in performance, supposedly due to the realization that college is a year away.
I really don’t think it’s simple laziness. I think it stems from uncertainty about the future. How easy can it be to decide what you want to do for the rest of your life with only a high school’s worth of classes? Day in and day out, that’s what you’ll be doing for the next few decades.
I’m a junior right now, and it’s no picnic. I’ve seen similar behavior in seniors too, but your last year of high school feels a lot of fun, and you just want to be more laid back, even though you know you shouldn’t.
Unfortunately, I’m already developing being too laid back, and getting not so good grades. I gotta fix that, and not get on the computer so much!
Your job Mr. Crestind is to “Enrich Your Life Continuously!” You are what this
life has to offer. Fill that need to enrich your life and you will find success in
all that you do.
You are aquiring skills and tools to further enrich your life. Aquire them
voraciously and you will become content within yourself. Share your tools with
others and you will have respect till your last day.
This is the time of ‘your life’ Mr. Crestind.
God Bless You And Yours
