Back in the winter of my sophomore year, I remember having a thought. I said to myself one day "you know, I'm not really nervous for junior year. Nothing much will have changed so I've got no reason to be." I've been a wreck of anxiety for the first day of school since starting 6th grade, and I thought that this year, for the first time ever, I might be ok.

Then I applied and got accepted to an arts academy in my town. I've known about it for weeks and have been excited, but now I'm having second thoughts. I can't go back on my decision, though, because everyone at school knows about it and my schedule is already set up. I'm supposed to be going to my regular school for morning classes and the new school in the afternoon for Language Arts, which is called my concentration. I'm so scared. Summer is almost over and I can't believe how quickly it went by. What the he** am I supposed to do now?

If I don't end up liking my new school, I can always go back to full-time classes at my old one, but I'd be coming into an unfamiliar class and I'd look like a quitter.

I don't know what to do.
