As the last of the fall sports conclude, we finally have
more time on our hands to do the things we want to do. Sports take up a lot of
time and energy and we have to give up a lot of things that we love to do. Even
though it is sad to see another season ended and hard to say goodbye to your
team, the fact that your sport has ended for the year can be a good thing.
This is a time to get back to what we used to do and improve
some of the habits we formed while on season. For instance you will finally
have enough energy, and no excuses not to do all of your homework that night. This
means if you let your grades slip this season you can finally do the extra work
to make them up.
It is important to get into good study habits during this
time, because is really easy to form bad ones. You have so much more time after
school, don’t waste it. I know it can be really tempting to watch TV for a couple
of hours rather than sitting down and doing your math homework. That being
said, it is also a good time to start doing other things that you couldn’t during
season. Whether it be, hanging out with friends more often or reading at night
instead of falling right to sleep. This time can be both sad and relieving.
I just want to say congratulations to all of my fellow
student athletes out there who made it through another year. I know it is not
easy and you should feel proud of what you have accomplished!
