Hey, this is Billy again. I have some spare time so i decided that i should use this time to blog since i didn't blog in a few months. Anyways, based on the title, i think you should know what i mean by "Moving On." Well, its about high school (quite obvious).
Ever since high school started, it was a very difficult time for me. I had new teachers, many new classmates, and more things to learn. I had to walk to classrooms that are very far from my locker and other classrooms as well. I barely had any friends in this school since practically all my friends went to ACCI (Albert Campbell Collegiate Institute). I was always late to classes in the first few days of classes since it was pretty hard to find the classrooms when they are practically off the school map(that's how far the classes were). I guess it was pretty tiring and stressing for me in the start of the new school year. All I had to do was adjust to the new school environment and forget what i did at Henry Kelsey. But i just can't, Kelsey was a part of my life which was important to my self-esteem at the time. After realizing that, i even had regrets to go to ACI instead of ACCI.
After going to Sunday service at Church, I realized that through the stress-less faces on everyone there, it made me a little more confident and if they are used to high school then so would I. God lead me through this path for me to learn a lesson, "Don't give up no matter how hard it is."
I can feel your pain, Billy. It's difficult to adjust to a new school setting. It's difficult to make friends all over. Suddenly in a big school you feel small.
ReplyDeleteBe encouraged, knowing that you are in good hands! He knows what you need. Let Him walk with you.
Consider it pure joy whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. (James 1:2-4)
God bless.
Hey billy!
ReplyDeleteNo worries, okay? ACI is just a glimpse of what uni will be like! tell me about having no friends.. none of my friends are in the same class as me! so i have to befriend everyone i see, pretty much. it's so hard! because there's at least 300 other people with you in the lecture, why would the person next to me want to be my friend, right? haha. im still trying to make some new friends/ study buddies.
Hang in there, ACI's good. :) you'll like it!
Nice to see you blogging!
ReplyDeleteThe first few weeks are always kinda tough because everything's still new. Transition is pretty hard sometimes. It just takes some time.
I was feeling the same way a few days ago, and I found this passage really useful:
[God] comforts us . . . that we may be able to comfort [others] with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. —2 Corinthians 1:4
Look to God for strength! And think, in a year, maybe even in a few weeks, you might be the one comforting others will the same worries. You`re not alone in this!
