Are you Nervous or Excited?

For myself, I am both nervous and excited for college. I am going to the best college in the world... St Pats. St pats has been open for 129 years; it is the oldest school is NZ.

The achievements I would like to get at St pats is to finish all my work on time and at a good quality. Easier said than done. When you go to college each class gives you a lot of homework (as most of you know). I sometimes struggle with the amount of tasks that we get at St Bens! I can still get through it though.

One of the best things that I am looking forward to is seeing my relatives everyday. Unlike most people, my relatives don't annoy  me. I will see my cousin, Suki (you will know her as Mrs Green.) I am also looking forward to school sports as I have never played a school sport for a school team.

Work will be on of my main struggles just like the majority of you. I can't wait for college but I am still nervous because the teachers hand you over a ton of work and say, "this all needs to be finished by tomorrow." I will stress out. I hope I will be able to finish all of the work.

Earlier this year we had St Pats entrance exams. I hope I did well, I haven't got my results back. After I finished, I sat down with all of my classmates and then, embarrassingly, my dad called. Everyone started shouting so that my dad could hear (the exam had finished, so it didn't disturb anyone.) After he ended the call I face-palmed myself.

College is both exciting and nervous. I hope that all of you will be able to cope with it, and for the year 7s, that you will be a good leader of the school. Are you more nervous or excited for next year?
