<p>Title says it all. I'm going to go on a tangent about how all of my years were daunting to start (and then conclude which one was the most daunting), so if you don't want to read it you can just skip it and answer the question. </p>
<p>Freshmen year was daunting for obvious reasons, but I came from a school that typically filtered in like 4 students to the high school rather than the 300 students that come from the main middle school (we have weird district lines). I only knew 5 kids at the start of school, including 2 seniors who live next door to me. They basically took me in freshmen year, I was grateful, but I didn't know anyone in my regular classes. It was really daunting to start over in a new place. Sophomore year, my senior friends left so I was basically alone. It was like starting freshmen year all over again except without an upperclassmen companion. Junior year, I literally thought I would die from the work. I cried after my first day of school. All of these years got better with time, though, and I ended up making a lot of friends!</p>
<p>I'm starting senior year in a couple weeks! I'm actually excited (is that weird?) I mean I don't want summer to be over but senior year has more pros than cons, in my opinion. I'm excited to get into college and do all these senior activities.</p>
<p>My reactions to the first week of school freshman-junior year were pretty dramatic (crying, really?) but I'm really bad at starting things. Once I get into it, I'll actually find myself enjoying it. This is true for mostly everything I do. I remember starting a camp a couple years ago, at first thinking, "It's okay, I only have a few weeks left and then it'll all be over with," but by the end I was trying to make every second last because I didn't want to go home.</p>
<p>But by far, I think my sophomore year was the most daunting to start. I sat alone at lunch my first day of school and that experience is worse than any amount of stress or homework overload that you can experience. </p>
