Back to School Jitters

Hey guys,

So I'm sure at some point during our lives we've all experienced some kind of nervousness, or "jitters". Be it for a date, a test, an interview, or even school. It's a completely natural thing, and there's not a lot we can do to eliminate it.

What we can do though, is embrace it...or at least accept it.

This is definitely a difficult subject for a lot of people, especially if you have low self-esteem. Accepting the fact that you have to go to school, with hundreds, if not thousands of your peers (depending on the level of your education), who are probably going to be judging you, is not an  easy task. People can say "Just get over it", or "It'll be fine"...but inside, you're freaking out.

What I can say, is that it's not going to last forever. Once you're in university/college, people don't care anymore. There are so many people that you will find are just like you. You'll also notice that people start to grow up (at least some of them do). If they haven't grown up yet, they really don't belong in a university.

What it really comes down to is...why does it matter? Next time you're in a situation where you're panicking, or you feel nervous or stressed, think to yourself, "will this really matter 5 years down the road?" If not, STOP stressing over it. Life's too short to be stressing ourselves out over stupid, miniscule things. We need to put a smile on our faces, no matter how hard it might seem, and live our lives.

I hope that each and every one of you can be happy, and that your peers don't get you down...because if they're not raising you up, they're bringing you down (and NONE of us deserve that).

Love each other.

BYE!!
