Focusing in class became an uphill struggle. My mind would wander, replaying our interactions or imagining future conversations. I'd catch myself daydreaming about my crush, only to snap back to reality and realize I'd missed important information. To stay on track, I had to consciously slow down my thoughts and take deep breaths to ground myself. I reminded myself that my crush, like everyone else, had their own quirks and flaws, which helped me keep my cool and focus on the task at hand.
