Personal Narrative: My Dropping Out Of Chemistry Class

Decent Essays
The kind of storms I see coming this semester is when we have game day which pull me out of my Chemistry class. In order to make it on time to my games I will miss 8 classes out of 19. Depending on what time we leave I will have to make up quiz in the Student Success Center. I cannot drop out of Chemistry because it will put me behind on my schedule to graduate. I am very hopeful that it will get easier when volleyball is over because I can participate in class lectures. I have been over-scheduled Monday through Thursday because after practice or game I don’t have much time to study for my quiz or exams. I don’t have class on Friday which means I have more time on my hands to study for quiz or exams for Mondays. I really like how I don't

    "Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence" I have had many ups and downs over the course of my life thus far. One specific example of this took place during my freshman year of high school. When I started high school it was very challenging for me, partially due to the fact that; during this time, I was lazy, unmotivated and did not really take school seriously. This by far is one of my biggest regrets to this day. Who would ever think that not trying during my freshman year would continue to follow me throughout the course of my academic career.…

    As the stadium lights slowly began to blind me, the smile I was wearing started to fade as I felt an overwhelming, nauseating sensation flow over my entire body; I thought that flags only slipped through hands on battlefields, not on a Friday night during a high school half time show. Failure is a one-way mirror. When standing in front of the mirror, the failure simply stares back in the form of a reflection. My first performance for the high school color guard amounted to the show flag slipping through my clutches and slamming onto the freshly cut, football field grass. The searing embarrassment that followed felt like the end of the world.…

    For myself personally, making my student life easier comes from the absolute excellences provided by the guidance teachers within my school. From the very first day of grade 9 to now my last year of high school, the various fields of knowledge supplied whether in regards to classes, personal matters, planning out my future, clubs/involvement, community hours, reviewing undergrad programs/univerities, or simply going in to talk about anything was overwhelming helpful. Knowing that there were those besides family and friends wanting me to reach my greatest potential is very comforting.…

    The end of the day comes whether you have gotten up to do something productive or if you have simply remained inanimate while time moves around you. I have found that the present slips away while you are worrying about the future. We are constantly telling ourselves that if we just get through this, then everything after will be better. We forget to appreciate the moment while constantly reaching for a hypothetically more fulfilling life. Once we graduate high school, or get through a challenging class, or finish a workout, everything after will get easier.…

    Looking back on these last eight years at Rideau, all that I can say is - wow. I’ve had a rollercoaster ride at this school, one that rivals ones at Disneyland and Six Flags with its bumpiness, great speed, and overall fun. I haven’t been without my troubles at this school - everyone has them. But more than anything, we all had a blast learning at this school, and we’ll sorely miss it when we leave for Western. Kindergarten was something else.…

    To be honest, I hate school with a passion, yet I love learning as much as living. As a child, schooling created a feeling of loneliness and sadness that echoed throughout my life, even now. I didn’t meet the standard levels for literacy and was separated from my classmates in elementary school for special reading and writing classes. Also the lack of freedom to say and move the way I wished to, and the rebellion that stemmed out of me in middle school due to these limitations. Finally, the conforming in high school to appease my mother, friends that drove me over the edge, yet even now I feel the same bull-crap in college.…
