Others have plans already

While I am not sure what to do

Focusing hard and studying is all that I do

but I want to have fun too?

What should I do?

---

Looking ahead in the future

I’m not sure what’s going to happen

Will I succeed in life?

Will my work in high school pay off?

What should I do?

---

These worries are things that happen now

I should just be me

and balance things that I should do or see

Being constantly worried brings you no where

Confidence and friends will lead me to there

I usually have never really stressed about this kind of stuff. I have been carefree, studying and just doing my usual work for school. But lately, in my sophomore year, I have been feeling a bit stressed out about this. I believe I should keep working as hard as I can, so I can get into a good college. At the same time, another part of me wants to mess around and have the most fun I can during High School. I started to feel it was pointless to force myself to do well in my classes because I couldn’t afford to get into any good school.

This year, my classes have been even harder for sure. I know I should focus and keep doing my best in my classes. Although, I feel like I have been slacking off a bit these first few weeks. My grades aren’t as high as I normally would like them, and I have been using my phone a lot more. Realizing this, I believe that it is a good idea to start studying more than having fun. Even though it seems like a good idea to have fun and enjoy my life, it will pay off eventually after my hard work in my classes.
