The different levels of high school all affect a person in some way but when you get higher up it's like a train hit you and you can't get up. The best advice is to have fun even while it is stressful because as soon as you graduate I have heard you'll miss it more than ever and I believe it. It's okay to fail a test every now and then and it's okay to not want to go to school a couple days out of the year because everyone needs a break at some point.

Yes, finals are very stressful but you will get through them and you'll get into that college. Just keep pushing and don't give up.

1. The ACT will kick your tail

Taking this test over, over, and over again is stress on a whole different level.

2. Dual Enrollment and AP classes WILL consume your life 

Homework. Every. Single. Day.

3. You have to start thinking about college

Counselors continually remind you of when scholarship deadlines are

4. The question, "What are you planning to be when you get out of high school?" is asked at least 5 times a week

Please stop asking. We don´t know.

5. Stress is a understatement 

Too much work and not enough time

6. You start to find your friend group

This happens through every stage of high school but more junior year

7. You do NOT have to have a date to go to prom

Go looking like a queen without anyone stopping you

8. Do not play around. Pass those classes

Your life depends on you passing and so does your college acceptence

9. Work hard

Work hard. It will pay off

10. You have this year and next year left

Make the best out of these two years. It will be gone before you know it

Every grade has their own challenges. Don´t take a minute for granted. You think you hate it now just wait till you get into the real world. Junior of High School is very, very stressful compared to freshman and sophomore year.

“You're gonna miss this. You're gonna want this back. You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast."

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
