《Teenage Advice》Stressing Over School

Advertisement

Heyyy so it's me again see I'm in 8th grade (im 13 such a baby :,) ) anyways i have to choose commerce or science for high-school. like I've got to give my school the paper next week because they have to send the total number of students so we could get exams from Cambridge and blah blah blah. Anyways, i really like commerce. I mean i could go through hours of my economics and business classes without even blinking but like a lot of people chose commerce in my country so basically lots of people in the commerce stream have low paying jobs or no jobs at all because a lot of people apply for the same jobs. Im not into science but that could possibly get me a better future and i don't know?????? But i thought of taking science then taking Business and Finance classes (out of school) during A/AS-levels (11-12) but I'm not really sure. Im 13 omg why should i plan my whole life from now. #perksofstudyingthebritishway

Dear Em,

So I go to school in America, and most of the stuff I just read doesn't make sense to me, but I do know what it's like to have the stress of the future on your shoulders. I'm a more artistic student, meaning I'm in classes like, Band, Choir, Journalism, Art, Graphics, Floral Design, etc. I've realized that focusing on the arts is more important to me than taking classes like, Medical Terminology, Business, and things of that nature. I'm taking classes that mean more to me, even if they may not get me a good paying job in the future (but they very well could, if I put my mind to it). You're young, you shouldn't be worrying about what will happen in ten or twenty years from now. Live in the present, and prepare for the future, but don't worry about it. You are thirteen years old, you need to prepare for the future, choose the class that sparks your interest, don't choose the one that will make you regret your decision. When it comes tot he future, don't you want to be happy? Talking to your parents can help you make a decision, but sometimes they may think something else is a better idea.
