Senior Year Research Paper

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.

These years are kind of the fun years of high school. As a freshman I was trying everything out, all the activities, making new friends and going to the dances and sporting events.

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

Sophomore year had ended, and my summer had just begun. After a long wait to gain permission to go on a backpacking trip. My father gave me the approval. I took my love for the outdoors and began to explore it even more.

My first day of senior year had been just like every other year, except my schedule was very basic. The goals I had in mind were mainly outside of my time in school. I had been taking college courses online to better prepare myself for college and to eliminate costs in classes, so I had to make sure I passed all of them. Another goal had been to save money from my job to accomplish personal goals after I exit high school.

My senior year is coming to an end, high school is pretty much over. With the finish line quickly approaching, I reflect on all the things I’ve done in these past four years and, more importantly, all the things I did not do in the past four years that I probably should have. In retrospect, I never did feel like high school was going to be where the best time of my life would be remembered, but now that it’s pretty much over I think maybe I should have treated it like it was. I would love to be able to say there is nothing I didn’t do that I wanted to and that I didn’t have any regrets, but there is a fair share of both. When I think too much about the end, I get sentimental about the experiences, friends, laughs, awkward moments, and more.

I am excited to finally start my senior year. From what my parents, friends and family have told me, senior year is supposed to be a great year. However, I believe it will be like any other year; it will not be the year I remember the most out of high school. Most of my family has been out of highschool for a significant amount of years, therefore, they do not realize how much the pressure on students has increased since then. Students now are expected to take the SATS and the ACTS in order to get into a good college. In the society we live in now, if one was to go to a community college he is thought less of because he did not go to a college that is known. However, I think community college is a great option for everyone. It is ridiculous

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.

Sophomore year in general has been treacherous . Now it's become harder trying to manage work while studying for finals, Eoc and keeping up with work. Nowadays, I find myself wishing to be back in elementary school. A memory that has been engraved to the deepest part of my brain is one of my teachers telling me of the importance of flushing and cleaning up after the mess that I create. I can’t believe that I once thought that elementary school was difficult. Let’s ignore the fact that my English wasn’t that good in elementary school, now that I’m actually reflecting on the time that I spent in elementary school, I can truly see how simple everything was. For example, I had to write my weekly vocabulary words thrice. But, this is the real world. We aren’t given the chance to go back in time just because we wish to relive certain periods of our lives.

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

Everyone has goals and everyone has been alive at some point in their life, obviously. To me, living so far has been pretty easy. What I’m really worried about is the future. It seems like nowadays everyone has a clear idea of what they want to do with their life. I am really not sure. I have almost no idea what I want to do with my life. Maybe I will just join the circus, or maybe even become a penguin! Penguins are fun! Penguins don’t have to worry about taxes or paying for college. All they do is stand around eating fish and making weird noises! How come I can’t just be a penguin? Or maybe even an elephant... wait never mind, I need to get back on topic. As you can see the beginning of the paragraph has explained my personality pretty

I thought Senior year would never come. Well it came and arrived sooner than I though. I've been planning life after high school for a while now but, this year makes everything seem surreal. I thought I had everything planned out, ready to go, and this year would be a piece a cake. I've never been more wrong. The stress of senior year and accomplishing what I need to to graduate so i can further my education in college is weighing me down. Sometimes I need to take a step back, take a deep breath, and just calm down. I know with everything in me I am cabe of whatever I set my mind to as long as I don't let minor obstacles hold me back.

A misconception I have heard during my high school year is that high school will be the life of the party literally of “life”. With this, they say that with all the events, mistakes, dances, field trips, club joining, fundraisers, learning, sports, rallies, carnivals, and classes throughout the process of a high schooler to the big exciting events that come during senior year they say.

I believe that a successful senior student should be opened minded and push themselves to help others and strive to reach their goals. Always being ready for the next challenge is a skill that is important in a leadership role and as a senior student they should guide other students when going through their school career. Another important quality that a senior student needs is social skills when talking to students, teachers and parents, also they will be representatives of the school and must be verbally articulate to express their ideas.

Freshman year can be described as the worst year of high school. The effects of puberty have sunk in, for better or worse. Young fourteen or fifteen year old is still trying to figure out who he or she is , and who they want to be. Middle school is over and the transition into a world of independence has begun. A whole new world is emerging and surviving jurassic change is hard to do. Three ways to survive the dreaded freshman year include discovering the right group of friends who support your character, managing your studies,and valuing relationships with teachers and parents.
