Since we were little, some of us only dreams were to became old. We thought that being 18 would give us independence and freedom for almost achieving anything. Also we are taught and intimidated with our four last, and hardest years at school (9,10,11 and senior year) this intimidation comes from everywhere. Our own older friends, teachers and of course our parents that sometimes seem to be more afraid than us. We are told that this 4 years are very important do to the ratings, NEM, PSU, etc. I completely disagree with all this, this 4 years shouldn't make us tremble, nervous, etc. We should enjoy each one of them because they are our last four years with our classmates, and in our school that for many people is almost a home. Because it is were we make friendships, connections and some times soulmates. Therefore Senior year should be the least appropriate moment for being scared, because we have been scared many years for tests and many other things. So I invite you all my readers to stop being afraid of all this things because were already grown up the majority of us are already 18, we need to accept our responsibilities and duties as grown ups and stop complaining for everything, just deal with it. And start enjoying each day, is not that each year it turns harder its the opposite each year is simply different nothing else, new challenges, new problems , new people we get to know each year so have a good time in your senior year and start seeing the positive side.
Do you agree or am I just speaking a ton of nonsense things?
Hi Seba!! I completely agree with you! We should enjoy the last of this year the most we can instead of stressing for things. Lets have fun during the alianzas, misiones, and all the activities that we do together!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you sometimes we focus to much on schoolwork and don’t let ourselves enjoy the moment. We have only a few days left to enjoy with our classmates and then we will have to face a different realty. I believe that maybe we should learn to relax and just enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI think we should make the best of our last days, even when we're tired, stressed, or even just give up and go live to Tijuana. Anyways, we don't value what we have, until it's gone. So please, look around and make the best of the moment, because once its gone theres not going back.
ReplyDeleteI don’t know about you but high school was and is the best think that could happen to me. I have enjoy every step, every year and every activity. I have made the best of friends that I know that I will not stop seeing them in the near future. I know that we can get a little negativies some times with the school’s stuff but deep down we are all enjoying our lasts months together.
ReplyDeleteHi ! I couldn't agree more with you Seba ! I think that the last 4 years have been pretty good.
ReplyDeleteIts rough tho because we tend to be treated as kids when we need to be treated like adults and also the other way around ! Growing up has its benefits but also means more responsibilities that sometimes we ignore. I think you are right, we must have fun this last year and get the most out of it !
I firmly belive that we have to enjoy what we have, im not saying we shouldnt be aming for more but sometimes you just need to see what you have and enjoy it. Thats why y think we should live day by day without thinking to much about the future until it comes to us.
ReplyDeleteI can’t agree more with you Seba, because for me, this last 4 years have been the best.
ReplyDeleteI have enjoy every moment, and I don’t wanted to finished.
I can’t imagine making the next step.
But I know that I will not stop seeing my friends in the near future, so that make me happy.
And also, i think you are right, we must have to take advantage of this last year and get the most of it!
It is very interesting what you said Sebastian, after all the life is only one, and we have to enjoy it no matter the circunstances of our life. Nevertheless, we always have our afterlife to enjoy since we believe in the pardon of god and in heaven.
ReplyDeleteIt is very important to enjoy your life with your friends and more important with your family.
Thank you Seba for your incredible post. That was an amazing reflexion of life and the circunstances of it. Most important we have to enjoy our last year in the school and be with our friends and loved ones.
ReplyDeleteSeba I completely agree with, we shouldnt be stressed for the PSU or our NEM, we should enjoy the last days of school with our classmates because next year we will not be together anymore. I will miss school a lot and I hope we continue seeing each other.
ReplyDeleteSeba, I completely agree with you I think we are focusing a lot on NEM, PSU, etc. and not on the most important thing that is to enjoy and have fun with our friends and classmates this last year. These problems are one of the many that we will have to deal with, so we do not have to stress so much, we better have to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThank you seba for this incredible post. I totally agree with you. I think that is really importan to think about our studies but also to think in our life and sometimes to just have fun with our friends and with our classmates. We shouldnt be that stress about psu and insted of that we can enjoy the process

ReplyDeleteSeba i also think that the moments that we have in our lifes with our friends and family are also really important. Those moments would be remember always and being stress about a test is not the most important thing in our lifes
ReplyDeleteSeba, I loved your post!! This years have definitely been amazing in every sense, I'm very proud of what we have reach as individuals and as a group, we have make friends that now are like family from other mothers and the most important people that we know that they would be always with us. Thank you
ReplyDeleteSeba I almost cried... I think you are absolutely right. I mean, we have been taught our entire lives that we have to work hard for what we want, and sadly this things like the NEM, PSU, etc. are important, but we have also been taught to enjoy the moment and live the present, because if we live thinking about our future we will never get completely what we want...
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Seba. Sometimes it happens to me that i am so focus in studying and having good marks that i forget to have fun, spend time with my family and friends. Honestly, i am trying to stay relax this year but is not very easy. We have to realized that PSU is not the most important thing in life, and relax so we can enjoy this last months together at school!
ReplyDeleteSeba i agree completely with you because we are on a stage of our lives that is one of the most important stages in human life. This because we are turning 18 and even many already have 18. Being 18 in Chile means that you are already adult so you are completely independant. I mention this because our school gives us values and is responsible for what we are going to be in the future so i wanted to thank the school for that.
ReplyDeleteSeba I really liked your post! I totally agree with yoou because not it's not the time to be scare, it's the time to enjoy and embrace what's comming next as it is, not with fear but with joy and venturesome. I like to think that it´s time to revaluate this next phase as a chance to prove ourselves that we aren't victims of a system that jeopardizes our future by making us nervous or scared of what´s next.
ReplyDeleteSeba, I agree with you and positively support the idea that we should be enjoying more ourselves and the present. However, I believe school takes a big role on giving us the tools for being a contribution for the society.
ReplyDeleteHi Seba! I really liked your post, we should be more concerned about our actions, we should enjoy school with our friends, but we should also give our best to succeed. School gives us the first impulse to become grate humans and friends.
