My Experience In High School Essay

It was a beautiful, sunny March day. The temperature was perfect with just a slight breeze. Over spring break, my family decided to go on mini vacation to Kansas City and spend a few days shopping and a day to go to Worlds of Fun. I was excited to be on the trip, but I was not looking forward to Worlds of Fun. As we left the car and started walking toward the entrance to Worlds of Fun, there was noise filling the air. Children and parents laughing and having fun, but all I heard was the screaming and yelling of those riding the roller coasters. We went through the gates, got our passes, and headed into the park. Once we were in

The realization that I was unequivocally now a graduate student occured to me when I was sitting across from the counselor that I was interviewing for this project. The feelings I experienced beforehand were both excitement and anxiety. I felt nervous about being a guest at a high school and interviewing a seasoned counselor. However, I was thrilled about learning from a veteran in the field and having the freedom to ask the questions that I wanted to know.

My family had decided to go to an amusement park, Six Flags to be more specific. It was crowded, but that’s obvious. Everywhere I looked I could see groups of people. There was screaming, laughing, and talking surrounding me which makes sense since we were at a well-known amusement park. I didn’t want to come, but I didn’t have a choice. I don’t enjoy most rollercoasters and rather hate them due to my fear of heights. So, with my youngest brother I sat outside next to the entrance of all the “fun” rides and either went on other rides for toddlers with my brother which I will admit some of the rides were entertaining or, I would stand outside of the ride waiting for the rest my family to return. It was hot and humid, forming a sticky feeling

Spring, May 2015 My best friend Madi and I walk into the waterpark the first thing I see is kids running around.I smell the strong and bitter chlorine from the water. We walk to a table.As we are walking and I am talking to my friend I get the taste of all the greasy snacks like chips and hamburgers and other foods people are eating around us. We find a table and we sit down take off our coverups and of course we head straight for the big slide. We walk up the steep stairs and wait in line for about thirty minutes and by the way we went down

And i go to the door of the rink and pull the door open i feel the heat of inside the skating rink. I go inside and i see the lights are on and people getting their skates. I go get my jam skates on and roll to the back to the skate counter and take the new wheels out and put them on my skates. I take my skates off and put them on the counter and get the tool to get the wheels off. I get the bolts off and take out the bearings and clean them. Then i ask Tristan “ can you help me put in the bearings in the new wheels”.

The gps says “ arrived “ and we are ready for the turn up. As we are looking for a place to park we come to conclusion that there are not any because there were so many cars. There are cars that are beaten up badly. Some cars have no hoods , some cars rear-view mirror are hanging as if someone just drove by and took it off. Finally I spot the perfect place to park and I hear a deep voice yell at me and say “ You might want to park on up the curbs some more because these people around here can’t drive .” I look up and see it was tall lady directing me and thought it was hilarious but I still took her advice. My girls and I hop out the car and head walking down to the event. There was extremly loud music that you could hear even if you were

It was a hot summer night in South Carolina and all of my friends and I were getting ready to go to a Waka Flocka Flame concert at the House of Blues. We had all bought our tickets at the beginning of the week because we thought it would be a great way to end our senior trip. With all of us piled into cars, went out to eat and then arrived at our friends’ house to hangout before. We were all having a great time and finally decided to leave the house to go to the concert. Once we pulled into the parking lot, I remembered that I had forgotten to use the restroom. I had to go so badly and the thought of waiting in line for an hour made it even harder to hold it in. I quickly searched the surroundings and sadly, I didn’t see any porta potty’s, there were no restaurants in close walking distance and the security guards at the door weren’t letting anyone through. At this point, I was on the verge of

One day on a saturday morning, probable around 10 or 11 o’clock, I asked my dad if I could go to Speedy Park for the rest of the day with a couple of friends and he said, “sure, just be back by 11:00.” Speedy Park is a local amusement park that everyone loves to go to. It got its name because there’s so many fast and insanely steep rides, the founders of the park thought “What better name than Speedy, Speedy Park?” But anyways, around 12:00 I went to pick up Ron, Rick, Sane, short for Sanchelli, and Dave. They were like the only people i talked to in the neighborhood. So, after I picked them up we all walk down to the park, it was like a 30 to 40 minute walk. When we arrived, it felt as if it was the first time I’ve ever been there, even though we been here like 100 times. The smell of the funnel cakes and other scents in the air, and the sounds of happiness coming from every direction never gets old. So, we just start walking around, getting on rides and eating, you know having a good time like friends should. But soon, at around 5:30, something dramatic happens, all the laughter and talking and all the scents in the air stop, the roller coasters stop, and there’s

“I don’t dance so”, I said to them, “It’s okay maybe next time”, they said and I just watched Anthony, Isabel and Arlene dance. “I didn’t dance either so let's go get on more rides okay”, “okay”, I responded so we went on more rides together. When they were done dancing we met up again and we went on Silver Bullet. The line was huge even though it was almost time that Knott’s was closing. It was closing at 2 am and it was 1;30 almost time of closing but we all wanted to get on Silver Bullet so bad so we went to get in line. We got in line waited for our turn 20 minutes passed and we got to the front and went on. I was with Arlene and Chris was with Isabel and Jessica because Anthony left early after the dance. The ride was a four seater so three of us on one and two on the other. We all screamed on the ride because it was so much fun.When the ride was over we all headed to the front to go get picked up and we all went our separate

The high school experience is something that will forever dominate the psyche of most American adults. It was an unforgettable time of fun, rebel-rousing, summer loves and parties. It was a time of warm summer days at the pool and chilly autumn nights, watching the football team and wondering were the party was going to be that night. School dances and hotel parties. Seems like all I can remember are the good times. High School is a very emotional time for many teens and everything matters. The insidious problems that I had to face are but a smudge on my memory, things like too much homework, zits, mean people, gossip, and algebra. The social atmosphere that permeated every aspect of high school could

When people start high school they’re usually so excited. They can’t wait to experience everything that comes with being in high school, I mean who wouldn’t? Everyone says that high school is the best four years of your life. Now that I’m months away from graduating, I can’t say they were my best years but I can say they were my most educational years, of course I wouldn’t say that they weren’t fun because they were. When I say educational, I mean I’ve learned so much about myself and so much about life. I learned what the words family, love, betrayal, law and life meant. All these events changed me, and I’m glad they happened because I wouldn’t have learned all these lessons. My personality hasn’t changed; I’m still a carefree girl,

Difficult this word best describes my experience throughout high school especially my senior year.What made this year so stressful you’re wondering, well let me tell you.This was the last year of school which was exciting but terrifying all at the same time; this meant I would learn how to live in the “real world” but there were two problems.One being I wasn’t prepared for the world outside those doors. my second problem my past failures were catching up with me and I had to fix them if I wanted to continue with my future.

Even though I didn’t compete as a figure skater I couldn’t stay away from the ice. I ran all the way to the skating rink to meet my best friend. Bei Shu Lai has been my friend since I quit my skating career. He was standing next to the door with a grumpy looking Wei Wei.

College affords many unique opportunities to grow as a person. I believe that my experience at college has transformed me into the person I am today. I have become a better, more well-rounded person through the experiences I’ve had. More importantly, the trials I’ve faced have allowed me to realize who I truly want to be in the future.

My junior year was the third and final year that I was enrolled in the business academy at my high school. Being in the business academy was just a sophisticated way of saying that I was taking an online business course through a local community college. It also meant that I was automatically a part of a career and technical student organization called Business Professionals of America. For the three previous years, I had participated in the Regional BPA Competition, however, I fell short one place of qualifying for the State Competition each year.
