The hard work I put in the whole year is being paid off as of this moment even though I’ve had to stop violin lessons, soccer, and other extra fun with family and friends throughout. My goal for this last semester as a junior was to receive level 4’s for all my 7 seven classes and I have given every minute I can to succeed on this goal. The hard work has brought me to attain 5 level 4’s already for the whole semester which brings my stress to be less in the last weeks of school as I try to finish my only unfinished class algebra 2. The only thing I need in algebra is finish taking the EOT for MT6 and finish MT 7 in the 3 weeks that are left as well test for the level 4’s for prior MT’s. The other class I still haven’t completed the semester Level 4 is psychology which the only thing I need is to achieve a 3.5 or higher on the EOT to get a full 4.
As the year closes I think more and more about senior year. I feel excited to see how it turns out and to see which college I am admitted to. However I feel nostalgic about leaving already; I feel as if graduation is far but it hits me that in one year I will be gone to live and grow outside my comfort zone as an individual for the first time. My feelings won’t cause me to worry and I will live my senior year with the same motivations, goals, and hard work to know in my heart that I gave it all. I want to become more involved with extracurricular activities such as clubs and community service during senior year and hopefully create a Christian club at school. I want to join the Spanish Honors Society as well and run for president of the club to grow my leadership and organizational skills for college.
Above all I expect senior year to be a success. I feel happy of how far I’ve gotten and won’t give up easily. We only live one life and the main point of life for me is to leave a legacy to future generations so graduating is a big step toward that ultimate goal.
The year, rapidly progressing has finally turned around the last corner. A new last straight road to the finishing line is on sight and it is time to push the pedal to the metal to finish this school year strong for graduation next year. The year began in a hassle as getting use to the work load of three AP classes however the hard work put into every class shaped up the end of the school year greatly. Not only in pace with all my classes but on pace for level 4’s in mostly all my classes furthermore the realization that senior year is in sight creates in me a nostalgic feeling toward Lindsay high school, my family, and childhood as well as motivation to continue working hard.
