Improved Essays
Like any other day, my day started with a loud buzzing alarm and parents screaming at the top of their lungs. But today wasn 't like any other day in school. It was June 2, 2025, graduation day for South Miami Sr. High. Already my phone was buzzing from messages from all my closest friends except Chelsea, my best friend at the time. Knowing this wasn 't typical of her, I knew that our friendship was all going to change. That friendship taught me more about Chelsea and also with people who aren 't your friends.
I arrived to school and the last bell had rung, I rushed through the halls, the dreaded staircase trying to make it to class and avoiding security guards that roamed the halls. I finally made it to my math class, as I walked to my seat I noticed Mr.Ramirez being swarmed by students asking for yellow hall passes. I was able to sneaked into class without catching Mr. Ramirez attention that I was already late. Once I arrived to my seat, I was surprised to find Chelsea waiting for me.

    The hardest thing I’ve ever went through? Let me take you back to almost three years ago to a very cold Thursday morning in January. I was sitting in history class when suddenly something very strange happened; the announcement speakers came on. To most people it would seem like it was a very typical day to day event to listen to announcements; but at my school announcements were rarely ever said. My classroom got completely silent; to the point where you could have heard a pin drop.…

    "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.…

    A dilemma that I faced, and still am facing is simply the decision about what I want to do with my life after my high school career. In my freshman year of high school my goal was simply to get through the year in one piece. I was forced to conform to my new environment and all the strict rules that came along with it. Along with that it was the sudden transition from being the "big dogs" as eighth graders at my middle school to being "fresh-meat" in my first year high school. With so much attention placed on me as a freshman like on the varsity basketball team, where I was constantly forced to prove my worth to the coach and the players, to stepping out of my comfort zone and performing in a mandatory play for the rest of the the school as…

    Exhilarating: a term making one feel very happy, animated, or elated, would be the perfect word to describe what the day had in store for us eager, and jubilant grade 6 students. A thrilled and luminous smile lit up on my enthusiastic face as I ambled on the same rugged, cracked, gray tinted sidewalk that I had sauntered on everyday for a year.

Suddenly I heard someone screaming my name well not really; it was my nickname, one that really agitated me in an incredibly obnoxious way, “Babikathu wait up”.…
