This is the beginning of my junior year at Memorial High School and I more and new goals that I want accomplish during this school year. My short term goals for this school year are completing homework on time, do more after school activities, and socialize more. Compared to last school year I’ve been getting more homework. As of right now, I have been turning in my assignments on time but, I’ve been taking a long time getting my homework done. With my house chores and homework, I have very little time to do other activities and get mind off school of a few. My chores aren’t really the problem it’ the homework. Sometimes I’ll spend like three hours doing homework and sometimes I won’t have time to my other personal things. Right now I’m trying
Junior year. My junior year I realized things about myself that I hadn’t previously known. Things I’ve never done before and things people thought I couldn’t do. Situations I thought I wouldn’t be in and there I was. Junior year, I did it.
You would have never thought that life could fall apart and then come back together just in a blink of an eye, could you? You’re right, no one could ever thought of that, because it never happens. One day everything is fine and moving smoothly and then it just all suddenly explodes with everything being destroyed. It was all just like any other normal day, nothing exciting happens, nothing entirely bad happens, just completely still and normal. I, Natalie Price, am a senior at George Mason High School, North Carolina and I’m going to be graduating in 4 months. Being towards the end of my high school years, I’ve been a little stressed trying to rush and push my school work to get done, but with just one phone call my stress levels are going
Although I would not have considered myself a leader when I entered Arlington High School, I can safely say that the past four years have changed me into quite the opposite. As I gained confidence in my abilities to lead and make a difference throughout high school, I began to take more initiative of my impact on the community by running for leadership positions and tutoring.
I have been a Spring isd student since 2008. The schools I have attended are, Northgate Crossing Elementary, Twin Creaks Middle School, and now Spring High School. Over the course of these eight years I have learned and observed a variety of ways students upset teachers, specifically English teachers. If you are looking for ways to upset your English teacher, you have come to the right place.
My sophomore year at Buena High School has had a large impact in my life from the sports I’ve played, the people I met, and the knowledge I have gained. This year I played tennis and rode mountain bikes, both of which were for the school. In doing these sports I have met many amazing and talented people that will forever have an impact on my life. Also there is the knowledge that I have gained from my teachers and fellow peers that I will use in the following years to advance my education further.
I learned some important things in my sixth grade year at Cascade Middle School. I
I'm an immature rambling child at heart and I will most likely always be that way. Immaturity can sometimes be seen as a bad characteristic in people, but I find that to be absolutely false. I love being silly and weird because that's who I am and I don't plan on changing that aspect of myself just because i'm becoming an adult and moving on with my life. I made so many significant realizations during my years of high school. These realizations changed my outlook on life and my morals starting becoming more clear to me. I slowly started to see things differently for what they truly are. Im not saying Im some scholarly intellectual, but I am saying I'm not ignorant. My first realization was nearing the end of my sophomore year at Ravenwood High School.
I currently attend a specialized high school which is lead to be a “non-typical high school experience.” Being surrounded by peers who share the same goals as I do has continued to challenge me beyond my comfort zone. High school has prepared me to anticipate the rigorous work in the BS-MD program while balancing other priorities. Learning from my past experiences, time management is vital in any academic atmosphere. From eighth grade through tenth grade most of my time was spent in the dance studio, up to 25 hour weeks. I’ve learned to balance my passion for dance while maintaining my position on the honor roll. With the challenge of being a senior in high school, dance would not be fit for my schedule. Meanwhile, I was mentored by two extremely
Over my years attending high school I feel like I have grown personally and academically. I have learned to ask for help when needed and to actually get the help I need. When I was a sophomore I really did not mind getting a C in my classes but not having a C in any of my classes doesn't feel good. I now check up and stay up to date with my grades more than before. I feel like this year I have realized how important it is to do the best you can and achieve good grades. I would say that a C would really affect me but I would not try the best to bring it up.
Throughout my high school and collegiate life, or what little I’ve had so far, I honestly haven’t done anything one could really consider notable. I spent the majority of my time over the past several year working on my own personal projects, avoiding joining clubs or getting ‘involved’. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head was the internship offer I received from AT&T this past December, which I gladly accepted. May I mention that I took the initiative to apply early and went through great lengths to receive the internship, so I was quite proud of this accomplishment. And good grades, of course.
Im writing this letter to my future self for Ms. Meyer’s English class and is to be placed in the Freshmen Time Capsule to open when I’m a senior. So I guess I’m a senior now? I hope it’s fun, Daniel is a senior right now and he seems like he enjoys being at the top of the high school food chain. I recently finished my first soccer season on the high school team, and I’m getting ready for the upcoming track season. I hope to be on the 4x8 team again this year with Rachel and Gillian, and we really want Sydney to be the fourth spot runner for our team (even though she really doesn’t want to). I can’t wait to get my restricted drivers license. It took forever for me to get my permit and I was kind of mad at dad for not getting it for me earlier but I guess he’s “really busy”. Freshman year is going really well so far, I have really good grades in all of my classes and I’m having a lot of fun and I can’t wait to see what the next years of high school have in store!
My Freshman year was one of the most surprising years I had at Euclid because when I came out of Pinnacle Academy I thought high school would be easy, but after Freshman orientation I realize that high school would be a roller coaster of a ride for me. The first day of my high school life at Euclid began August 14, 2013 lucky for me it was just Freshman and Sophomore students I was glad because sometimes your parents or family members will tell you things that aren’t true like Senior’s will stuff you in lockers, steal your money and etc but I realized that I’m a different person and I won’t be one of those students. But overall my first year at Euclid wasn’t that bad
I have always enjoyed playing sports, I’ve played Varsity Soccer and Lacrosse since my Freshman year of high school, but since Freshman year, it has become increasingly difficult to balance academics, sports, and other extracurricular activities. First semester of Junior year I watched many of my friends come to school completely exhausted, only looking forward to going home and going to sleep, numb to the idea of having to sit in a classroom for seven hours, go play championship games, and then go home to at least three hours of homework and studying. I too was being affected by the expectations that were set before us, waiting for the day that I would crack under the pressure. When I did crack, it was after playing in a three-hour soccer
Freshman year for me was like a baby carrying a boulder. 9th grade was definitely difficult, but it was an exciting ride. I have learned so much, especially from my teachers, some were tough to handle, but they taught me so much. In my freshman class we all were free and independent and we thought we can do anything but in reality it wasn't so easy. Days of listening to lectures from my teachers were really helpful. It was hard to handle some of my teachers, but at the end of the year each one taught me something. The things I was taught about this year was to not slack off, to care about my education, how I can balance my social life with my education, stress, time management, and so much more . This year I actually started caring about my future and my goals, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to accomplish them; getting into a good university, receive an education, follow my goals. Not only did school teach me about my education, but it taught me about my life and my future.
Have you ever worried what’s going to happen in future? I had this experience in 8th grade. This experience thought great life lesson. In life it’s important to trust and believe that everything will be fine and it will work out the you want it.
