It’s 2015. This is the year I graduate; in a matter of six months I will be a Lindsay High School alumnus. I feel like it’s finally going to hit me that I’m going to be on my own very soon. I should focus on the school work that I have to do now but I can’t help but think about the future. I’m more excited than I thought I would be but I feel like I’m ready to have a college experience. I know that it’s going to be scary but I’m excited to start something new.
I felt as if my winter break was too short, it went by really fast. It didn’t seem long enough. I didn’t really do anything exciting, I was home most of my break which was relaxing. I had a lot of doctor appointments during my break for multiple reasons. Reflecting on my first semester, I realize graduation date is getting closer and closer. One thing I regret looking back on my first semester is not staying on task and procrastinating which is why I am in the situation I’m in at the moment. But what I love the most about my first semester is all the activities and just knowing that this is my senior year makes them much more exciting than before. The reality of my last semester has hit me because I am behind in a few of my classes and to catch up, I am going to do tons of homework and use my class time wisely, rather than just sitting there and wasting my time and falling more and more behind. In order to accomplish this semester before graduation is make sure I am on pace in all of my classes and I don’t slack on my work. By completing assignments such as my autobiographical narrative and job shadow it has helped me see myself much clearer than before. I know I have support throughout my entire family, however they are all serious when it comes to me making mistakes and the way they bring it to point doesn’t make things any less stressful. Even though I know I have they’re support, the affection they show me proves otherwise. I love my family and I know they love me. That’s why I’ve learned to take in their negative criticism and turn it into great advice. I plan to stay ahead in all my classes for the purpose of having a less stressed year. So far, even with several ups and downs, I’ve managed to enjoy my senior year. These first few months have helped me learn more about myself. One thing I love the most is seeing myself grow through all the bad and good that has already came my way. I know I can handle anything that comes my way this year and that’s the kind of mentality I want to keep, now and forever. This year has started fast and I plan on finishing it strong.
