At Lowry, there are a lot of things going on, like Winterfest, lunchtime activities, wrestling tournaments, and basketball games. We also have drama, and I’m not talking about the school play.
Drama is a stressful thing that nobody wants but almost everybody has. We as a school need to work together to get rid of the drama between everybody because everyone is fighting some kind of drama-related event in their lives and they don’t need everybody else’s problems on top of their own.
What we should be worrying about is our school work; not who is calling you names because it really shouldn’t bother you.
What matters the most is getting an education and grabbing that diploma with your fellow peers.
When somebody says something about you, brush it off your shoulder because it’s nothing to worry about. We shouldn’t take things so seriously, because, in the end, the only thing that will matter is graduating and getting a good job.
When we look back at our high school years are we going to want to be remembered as the kid who caused nothing but drama, or as the kid who did their work and maintained good grades to graduate on time with their peers?
Honestly, we should be putting more focus into our school work. There are kids out there who are letting their grades drop so they can go get in a fight, or talk trash to other people. Around almost every corner there is some kind of fight going on, like yelling at one another, or fists flying and we don’t want our only four years of high school to be like that.
We want them to be memorable and fun something that we will be able to tell our kids in the future, to tell them that they will have a blast. Instead of the path we are going down, we’ll be telling our kids that high school is nothing but drama and it won’t be any fun. That’s not how we want our high school reputation or years to be remembered.
So get over what that person said about you and concentrate on having fun and graduating.
