College

What is it about college that stresses people out? Is it the money or the fact that there's a lot of work to be done. There is no doubt in my mind that college will be stressful, but people need to take the time to enjoy the time at college and not waste it away stressing about the simplistic little things.Granted, I understand there is a lot of things to be focused on and there are alot of responsibilities at hand but there is only a certain amount of time you will be at college, unless you go again due to career change, and that time should be spent in a way that you will remember it for the rest of your life.

DECISIONS!!!

The last year of high school and beyond, a teen is faced with a lot of decisions they will have to make that will greatly impact their lives. Granted, I am only a junior but I have already had to make a lot of decisions and have had to focus on my main goal for when I move out. There are many things a teen struggle with when they move away from home and go into the real world.

The statistics for high school teen droputs is:
Nearly 1 in 3 high school students in the Class of 2006 will not graduate this year

Now, isn't that pretty sad. 33.33% of all kids in the U.S.A. were projected not to graduate in 2006. That is quite a bit and it almost seems like the numbers could be a bit much but if you sit down and think about it, there are a lot of kids dropping out of high school for various reasons. The numbers quickly add up especially in areas of poor schooling.
