From middle school to high school, band became a vital part of my life. It was all I knew, it was where I felt comfortable, and this was where I pratically began learning about my leadership skills. However, my curiousity grew when I was introduced to Class Council. I thought that there was no difference, and I naively thought that since I have been a part of a leadership role for about 4 years, everyone knows me, so I thought Class Council could not be so hard. I was terribly wrong.…
Year 11, the year I sat my GCSE's. The year everyone looks forward to. The year you get to leave high school. The year everyone thinks will be amazing, enjoyable and unforgettable. The year that tore me apart.…
As my application is examined, it will come to the attention that no activities or descriptions are included from my sophomore year of high school. That would be because I actually did not have a sophomore year. Advancing forward a full year in high school would have to be one of the most challenging, longest lasting, incredibly difficult circumstances that I have ever found myself in. Not only was this decision strenuous when it came to academic struggles, but I found myself facing family skirmishes, social problems, and issues with the Board at my school. Even though so many obstacles could have been avoided by choosing to take the easiest route available to me, I would not trade my experiences for anything because ultimately, they formed me into the person who I need to be in order to pursue my dreams and taught me more than I could have ever imagined learning.…
I’ve been in school for about 11 years, every year is different, but yet the same. Because we are at the same school for years, it’s the same people, same school, and same everyday routine. Some years are better than others, but the overall best year that I’ve experienced is or was, 8th grade. The fun field trips to places, High School acceptance, and it’s the last year of middle school.…
Baseball:Playing on the Bermuda Grass The best experience that I have had throughout high school was the baseball team. In previous years we have not made the playoffs or even come close to that goal, but my junior year was different. In the beginning of the season we came up with the common goal as a team to make it to the playoffs. This year it had felt different for me we felt like a totally different team and we actually wanted to win some games.…
Tycianna Caldwell Reynolds ENGL 1010-01N 8 Oct. 2015 Taken for Granted: America We as individuals are very quick to look only at the bad sides of situations. We are sometimes only able to see the things that we do not have and overlook the things that we do. We take for granted things like freedom, equality, and being able to gain an education. Many forget that these things are not guaranteed to others that live in different places. I realized how fortunate I am to live in America when I met someone from another country.…
This year was a pretty great year because I got to discover the world of high school. Although there were ups and downs overall it was great. Fossil was very welcoming at the beginning of the year. This was the craziest year of school I have ever encountered. Freshman year helped in many ways.…
My favorite 8th grade memory is always when I hang out with my friends. One days it was sunny so me and my brother went to our friends house then went to go to sunset. We played soccer for a while until we got bored and went to tristan's house. Then we all left together and went to dylan's house and also picked up another kid name jaiden. Then we all biked all the way to dairy mart and I got a large cookie dough frenzie and we all go to this park with a huge rock and took a picture on it.…
I learned a lot and came out of my shell, but by summer I was still a loner. Senior year was the best time of my life. I made several friends, started really thinking about my future, and became comfortable around other people. Most importantly though, I had my first serious relationship. This girl would shape me and my life.…
Aww 7th grade, the second year of middle school. This year had many ups and downs but I guess it is almost over. Got to say I am going to miss most of the teachers. 7th grade was a brand new experience and I think I will never forget most of this year.…
Most of my time in high school was amazing, I was in NJROTC and Orchestra, which kept me busy and helped motivate me to keep my grades up. I didn’t realize it at the time, but we only learned how to take the standardized tests. In my English class during my sophomore year we would have new…
I decided to become an Early college high school student, because I knew it would help a low-income, first-generation college student, English language learner, and Hispanic like me achieve a higher education. One of the most valuable advantages of being and Early college high school student in my opinion would be the motivation and grand expectations you feel about wanting to achieve more. However, taking both college and high school courses requires a lot of dedication. You must learn to mature and challenge yourself always as a student.…
Senior Year My greatest memory so far in my eighteen years of being on this earth is without a doubt my senior year of high school. It was absolutely unforgettable. My senior year as a whole (which was just last year) was the most fun I’ve ever had in my life and the happiest I have ever been. When I was a chubby little freshman with glasses I thought to myself that high school would be one of the longest time periods of my life and that four years would feel like forty years. But man was I wrong, high school went by in the blink of an eye.…
Personal Health Narrative I honestly was so excited for it to be my eighth grade year. The Savannah trip, semi-formal, and moving on to high school in just one year. Eighth grade is that awkward time where boys are a big deal and girls are still trying to learn how to do their makeup correctly. I knew that this year was a big deal to me. I wanted nothing at all to get in my way.…
