What’s Midterms?

Midterms were slowly approaching and I didn’t know what to do,

The thought of having to study so much was making me feel blue.

I knew that I couldn’t procrastinate and wait until the day before,

Or else I would seriously be done for.

Studying was probably the last thing I wanted to do,

I even told myself, “I rather have the flu”.

Every night I would attempt to start all of the work,

Instead I would just smile at it and kind of smirk.

I knew I was making a mistake because I was waiting for so long,

I had a feeling if I waited anymore something would go wrong.

I knew it was time to drown in my pile of books and study guides,

I was overwhelmed with work I felt like I was in the ocean with all the tides.

Studying was definitely considered a “sad time”,

I felt like I was being punished for a harsh crime.

I pulled myself together and told myself, “Wake up Junilza you need an A!”

I studied really hard until the day before my test, the final thing to do was pray.

I had to overcome my bad study habits since it would help me in the long run,

So instead of procrastinating I got all my work done.

I kept telling myself after midterms, I would have some fun!

OH NO, HEIGHTS!

I always hated being up high, 

I just thought I would die.

Whenever anyone asked why,

I would just say, "I'm just a bit shy".

my cousins got tired of me not liking heights,

At that moment I just thought of the cites.

I got scared when they said we were going to an obstacle course,

I was doing this because of force.

I was perfectly fine with my fear,

they said if I made it through they would cheer.

It was the day of the event,

I just wanted to run and hide under a tent.

We got there and I was at the start,

I was so scared it felt like my life was going to fall apart.

I made it through the course without any tears, 

I wanted to celebrate after all the years. 

I was finally over this
