School, the one place where you can
find out whether you are going places, or possibly not. You'll have
your ups, your downs, and mostly your twist and turns of good and
bad. Sometimes school is good to me sometimes its not. In the end
though, I know its the best for me. My academics, the struggles,
accomplishments, and my aspirations. Are all that make me, me.
Struggles, I only have three.
Procrastination would be one of them. It has caught me to many times
to count. It doesn't matter if its homework, projects, and essays.
It's truly a horrible thing to have on you. With time though I've
been able to over come this fault of mine. I have learned and seen
that this work that is top priority and that this has to be done. One
way or another. Now, my second one would be focusing. Sometimes it
becomes difficult for me to focus in class when I'm either tiered,
headache or something thing of that sort. Also with all the noise
from the other students doesn't help either. Don't get me wrong, I
love a good chat as much the next guy but this education must come
first. With time though I've been able to focus more while blocking
out sounds and focusing on one voice at a time. However, there is one
struggle that beats the first two, and that's physical science. At
times, the reading gets to be a bt much for me. It isn't that I can't
read it all, it's that I tend to get headaches a lot from doing so.
Also the memorization can be a challenge as well. For example the
periodic table. At first, I thought that it was going to be
impossible for me, but now I almost have have of the thing memorized.
With all this in mind though, I have accomplished a lot as well.
My first major accomplishment would
have to be finishing the first year of early college as a freshman
and now being a sophomore. Completing that task wasn't an easy one.
The work load was new, the teaching styles were different, and the
atmosphere was new to me. The feel of the college was so interesting
to me that it felt like a field trip. Though as time went on, it
began to feel like any other high school. Just normal. It wasn't any
easier having to do it alone but I did it still and i'm in my second
year. Now before this though during my middle school years I was in
orchestra playing violin and I won a scholarship to Baldwin Wallace
college for two weeks and play in a show. That was a time to
remember. The music, the food, the people (girls) were amazing. The
entire time there was great and I learned so much there, made friends
and ate like a king. I'll never forget the day I got that
scholarship. Beyond all this though I do have some goals after high
school.
I want to become a male RN and or EMT.
Both of these fields aren't easy to get into. This woud be my way of
being able to get back to people and being able to help them in a
way that makes there life easier and more comfortable. Saving lives
is just something that I've always wanted to do for some reason. I
never knew why I start aspiring for this so much but this is what I'm
shooting for. To see another person live to see the sun rise again
and to see that smile on there face. That's what I want. Also if not
this field, I wouldn't mind becoming a mechanic or an technician.
Mainly with cars of course. Cars have always interested me and I
just like the sound of the car when it turns on and to hear that
“pur” you could say. None the less, This is what I'm going for
and hopefully I make it one day. Now, all this together is what my
high school experience is like.
The trials that I've gone through have
been good and bad but never wrong. The struggles have made me
stronger. The accomplishments have made me happy and ready to do
more. Also my dreams make me more determined to be better for myself.
MY academics will be decided on my own terms and I will make my
dreams a reality.
