There are over two hundred and fifty higher education institutions in the state of Texas. This number will most likely seem like a lot to the average high school senior trying to figure out which college is best for him/her. For me it was hard before my junior year, I went from wanting a Longhorn to Roadrunner, a Bear, an Aggie and a Leo before eventually deciding to become an Islander. As you can see I have changed my mind a lot and this was all between my seventh grade year to the end of the summer going into my junior year. Not to mention the stent when I wanted to go to Yale because I was obsessed with Gilmore Girls one summer in elementary and also because I loved Rory’s dorm room. That was the problem when I began to decide on colleges,
I cant believe that I am finally a senior in high school it seems just like yesterday I was beginning high school. As I begin my final year I am beginning to realize that this year I will be faced with many responsibilities and will make tons of memories. But I hope that I am able to make my senior year the best yet. Through this final year I hope to have passing grades in all of my classes, to win pep rallies, and to have perfect attendance.
Your senior year was a wild, crazy mess. You started off the year not wanting to go to school to see Karson because you couldn’t handle it. You even left school some days when he would show up. You let your dumb self try again with Karson and it failed. You got hurt, and even cried.... A lot. You meet the love of your life, Kyle, and still talk to him even though you guys aren’t together right now. You both hope to reconnect after you finish your second year of college. Keep talking to him, don’t let him get away from you. You have had it tough this year, but by the end of the year you didn’t let anything affect you. Your grades were A’s and B’s all year. You made some amazing new friends like, Chandler, Clayton Ecker, Collin and more boys
Senior year of high school is finally here. I am quite nervous about this year and especially what follows throughout the year. Most seniors in high school are excited for the year and have a plan and just know what they are going to do when they graduate. But honestly, I'm not sure what I want to do yet. I'm just worried about today, and my health, and lifestyle and just trying to make my senior year a great year.
As I get ready to face my senior year, no body can predict what is going to happen like the weather. Weather is a great example to represent the coming senior year, sometimes it is good and sometimes it is bad. There is nothing much I can do about it. Even though there is a forecast, but still, there is going to be something unexpected.
I can fairly say that sophomore year of high school has changed who I am completely. In sophomore year I decided to take on miscellaneous experiences to gain valuable work ethic that will help me to persist in college. These include joining a sport, and being accepted into a three year paid internship after going through an interview.Being the daughter of parents with a restricted income has limited my plans of funding my college education. My father is retired and my mother is a housewife which minimizes our financial abilities, however, this doesn’t prevent me from my pursuit of a college education. Gathering a sufficient amount to cover for my tuition and fees has been on my mind since sophomore year of high school, so I started to save up.
High school, four of the most interesting years of life. It is a time to find yourself and figure out who you are and what you want your place in this world to be. During this process comes friendships that build because of alike interests and beliefs. From freshman year at the bottom of the totem pole, all the way to senior year, being the top dog of your school. It is such a great feeling knowing that those three years of hard work build up to essentially a grand finale. Many big changes happen as you grow older in high school. From summer camps, to starts of a new year. From homecoming week, to the end of sport seasons. From in school privileges to coming to and leaving from school early, and finally Graduation. This grand finale year has some similarities and some differences and as you read on you will see what I mean.
As I am entering my senior year everyone has told me to make sure and slow down because it will be over before I know it. This year I want to learn how to build a strong support group for my emotional well being and grow closer with new people. I am striving to try and make the most of my senior year, so God will prepare me for the upcoming years.
That makes it hard to breathe. That summer, the instructors and the upperclassmen put the cadets through physical tests that test their problem solving and leadership skills. His first ride in a military jet was during his freshman year. He flew in a Lockheed T-33 (109-115). The summer before his sophomore year, he went through survival training. It was called SERE training, which stood for “survival, evasion, resistance, and escape.” It was designed to teach them skills if they were captured, how to not be captured, and just basic survival skills. By sophomore year, Sully realized how all of the skills he had learned helped him mature. His sophomore year, Sully got an outstanding amount of flying experience and instruction. He signed up to
Senior year has been a great year so far, and I’ve made so many friends. It hard to believe that it’s coming to an end. This is by far the fastest school year for me thats ever gone by. So many things are going on that I have to keep track of. Life choices, figuring out where I want to go for college obviously, applying for jobs, and learning how to drive, have all been consuming a lot of my time. It’s stressful but I know I have to do it and it’s gonna be great for me in the long run. The start of the year I sat with my junior friends at lunch every day. After a while, some of the main people that I usually talk to left the group, so I was with left with only one friend and a bunch of other girls I didn’t know or talk to. My friend eventually
Senior project, the highlight of senior year. An event that most look forward to in hopes to gain experience with a project of their choice. An opportunity for students to use a skill set that they have acquired throughout their high school careers and apply it to their passions. When I initially began planning for my personal senior project, I had so many things going on in my mind as to what I would like to complete that I didn’t even know where to start! Initially, I wanted to learn and gain experience with welding. Then, over the summer prior to senior year, my father and I traveled up north to visit old friends and spent quite some time out on the sea. I developed a passion for sailing and our family-friends sea adventure stories and hoped
Early junior year was a very rough time for me when it comes to the gradebook. The first semester of the 2016-2017 year I ended up with two F’s, two D’s, a B+ and a C-, which was very, very bad. I realized this was not what I was capable of and it was not anywhere near my best work. My parents were disappointed with my actions. It was instilled in me at a young age by my parents that school ALWAYS comes first. My theater director who taught me all throughout high school was disappointed in me, and my soccer coach was disappointed in me.
Freshman year has got to be the craziest year out of all of highschool. Seeing some of your closest friends go to a different school then you. Going into a new bigger school unaware of your surroundings. And Making and hanging out with new friends and teammates. The first day in high school in my freshman year i had no idea where i was going or where my classes were. The building looked big outside and even bigger on the inside. Everyone looked older and taller, even the girls. We actually got to text and have our phones out in the hallways. I heard tons of myths about high school. One was to never eat at lunch alone because people would think you were weird or a lame. Another one i heard was if you're going to be late you might as well be extra late and go get
Freshman year is not as undemanding and trouble- free as it seems. You must do what you need to in order to survive the freshman year. If you start to fool around in your first year of high school, it might turn into a bad habit for the years to come. Therefore, certain guidelines can help throughout this phase. In order to survive the year, you must learn some basic rules and try to stick with them for the next four years of high school. You have to be prepared to do some work, but also have fun while you’re at it. What you learn during these four memorable years will most likely stay with you for the rest of your life.
My Junior started at Saint Paul’s High school, it was a semi-small school from what i thought. The hallways were small and always crowded when we switched classes. Everyone knew of everybody, but most probably never even talked to one another. There was so much drama, everyone talked about everybody, you just could not be yourself. The staff was not really understanding, I was constantly feeling stressed and worried. I Eventually decided to go to my sister’s school, Highlander Academy.
An advice that I would tell to incoming juniors would be to take everything serious as it is a year that is essential to colleges and universities. The first step to make a great year is having the capacity to have work done. Many say that junior year is the worst year of high school, but it does not have to be unless procrastination takes upon you. Proceeding to enter senior year, some advice that I would give myself is, do not panic and take things easy. Applications for colleges and universities are around the corner and the need to have everything done on time will be stressful, give yourself some time off to adjusting to an accumulating period of time and effort. Time is precious but so is my health, relax and ask for help in hard times,
