Start High School-Personal Narrative

At Quickstart before freshman year I had a panic attack before I even entered the building. I saw how big the school was and I became extremely nervous about starting school. There was so much pressure to make the next four years, the best four years. Also, none of my friends were attending Lane with me and I did not know how to make new friends. Upon entering the building on the first day I got lost a couple of times but I made a couple of friends and lasting impression on my teachers.

Starting high school was a challenge. There are new surroundings and new people to please and impress. Classes were difficult, not because the work was hard but because there was nothing that was the same. New school, new teachers, and new faces to try to please were to much to handle when everything was falling apart at home As time went on, the smile face mask I had to wear everyday got thicker and thicker and it was getting more difficult to put on every morning. The only thing I would do when I got home was do my homework, read a book, maybe watch a little TV, nibble on dinner then go to bed. That was my life and that was my routine for 2 years. When I did go out with friends I would be home way to early and nothing really happened to make

After sitting at the same desk for three years, I figured I was beyond seeing anything new. I was wrong. After that third year I saw a lot more than I thought I would. I went up to high school and everything was so much different. The grades were harder, the assignments were harder and the teachers were harder.

When that year ended and I was transitioning to high school, Mr. Joyner made a decision to move me, Ja’quez, and Emmaus Holder up to the high school team known as HYPE. I was unsure of myself at first, I didn’t think I could or would make it on the varsity team of the organization. But that year, I saw a great improvement in myself. I got straight A’s that school year. I started becoming a better leader in the organization. That year we went undefeated and won the NC Step Show Championship, the Battle of the Border championship, and we even won the CIAA step show in the high school division. At one point, I was told I was going to be the next captain of HYPE. But, it was given fairly to my Immanuel Thomas and he is doing a very good job and has really taken up the mantle as captain. In the organization, I am know as “Grit” because of my impressive grit face. It originated from the first CIAA the organization ever went to and I was told I needed a new and

Throughout middle school and the beginning of high school I faced many challenges with my grades. These challenges made me grow and help shape who I am today. In my early teenage years I would view my school work not important. My perspective on priorities were all wrong. As I became older and matured I realized that. I realized school is the most important thing because my future depends on how I do. I realized if I want to go to a good college and have a successful career I have to work hard in school to get there. As high school went by my grades got better and I saw a better version of myself. My grades went from C’s and D’s to A’s and B’s in all my classes. I began to be attentive in class, and be productive and take notes. I did my school

I walked along the dim hallways practically clinging to the walls as we skittishly rounded the large corridors. It was obvious we were freshman by the terrified looks on our faces as our eyes darted back and forth searching for our next class. The high school hallways were not the most welcoming, as we soon found out.

There is an undeniable feeling of excitement you get when you know that every single person in the room has their eyes set on you, that they are waiting in anticipation to hear what you will say next. The first time I ever experienced performing in front of a crowd was when I was nine years old and had begged my mom to let me audition for our town’s production of Scrooge. That was the moment that first began my passion for the fine arts, and as I have grown older that passion has been cultivated and expanded further.

One day I was at her house and she wanted to go out, but with me being so young I couldn’t go. I did not have a problem with her going out and I stayed at her house since her mother made me feel welcome. But she had other plans for me. She had gotten a fake ID with my face on it, saying I was 18; she figured if my mother allowed me to get a tattoo at a young age, she wouldn’t mind if I went out. I knew my mother and I knew she would have killed me if I had gone out with her. When I told her that I was not allowed to go, she got upset. I did not care though, because I honestly was not trying to grow up too fast, and going out partying too soon was doing too much for me. She went out without me, but I felt that she wanted me to be like her so I stop talking to her. My friend Joey, well I thought he was my friend. My cousin knew him so I thought he was a cool person, but boy was I wrong. At first everything was fine. He always helped me with my math because coming in I had a lot of problems with it. Every time someone would try to talk to me he would tell them that they couldn’t, but I thought he was doing that because he looked at me as his little cousin.

I am the first in my family to go to college. i am a middle child of five other children. two older sisters, an older brother and both a younger brother and a sister. growing up school wasnt always important to me. as i got older and had already really struggled through my first two years of high school i relized i was just being lazy and i knew i needed to pull myself together and focus on things that were really important and crucial for my future. junior and senior year i worked hard and brought my grades and GPA back up. throughout the prosses of refocussing myself i relized i had a love for helping people. i decided that i wanted to teach but wasnt sure what exactly i wanted to teach. i started volunteering a large amount

There came a time in my life when reality hit me like a bus. It was the day I got my first high school transcript, and I was very anxious to see what it was all about. I was shocked to find out that a cheerleader who I knew wasn't that brilliant, was beating me in rank.

My life flipped for the better once I left the 8th grade, it was finally summer time and I was ready for it. But deep down I knew once summer was over high school here I come. I won't even lie, I was terrified to start as a freshman in high school. All of the rumors that I heard with baby freshman day, and all the stuff they do to freshmens on the first day of school. To be honest I was really nervous, instead of a couple butterflies in my stomach I had the whole family flying around. But once the first day of high school came up all those rumors that everyone was telling me was actually a lie. High school wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. As my freshman year went on a lot of doors opened up for me, there were sports, clubs, new people to me, everything you could possible think of. I didn't really get into sports as much as all of my friends, I was more into video games and playing outside in the woods just adventuring finding old vintage things and old buildings and all of the beautiful views. My freshman year wasn't really too special, I was too busy figuring out what everything was and where everything was located at. Then my sophomore year came along this is where I started to get the foundation of high school and blend in. everything kinda went downhill I made good grades don't get wrong, it's just I never showed up which I regret miserably. Once I got to my junior year everything is still constantly changing, a lot more people know of me. I was never

Walking into the first day of high school i never thought i would have i experience i've had until now, honestly my experience of school did not meet the expectation

It was the first year of High School and I was very nervous because it was a new school. I see all of my old friends, we say “hi” to each other. Going forward a month I’m not turning in any projects and most of my grades are under 50 percent. I worried because my parents told me they will take my gaming consoles for 3 months. In middle school I was always applied myself to classes and I did pretty well. Sometimes I got pretty lazy and I didn’t do any work that was assign to me.

We all have different kinds of the first day of school experiences, but for every student, I feel that stepping into the first day of school as a freshman would mark as the most memorable day in all high school years. Before the first day of school, I quickly thought that my freshman year would turn into the toughest and saddest year in my experience. My best friend would not attend the same high school with me, which already gives me many conclusions of how sad and hard of a school year it would result. However, maybe things will turn out differently than we think if we just change something about our way of living it.

It was the first day of my eighth grade year. I remember it vividly. I wore a blue button up shirt with a pair of jeans that I cut to wear as shorts and cuffed. I had blonde hair that fell halfway down my back and bangs that fell just above my glasses.
