High School Midterm

Improved Essays
The semester is finally coming to its mid point I am at the point that I need a long break from school and work. Last class, we went over one of the chapters that would be in the midterm. I am praying to god I obtain a good grade in the midterm. Currently, It has been very hard to find a quiet place to study and to be honest time. Additionally, I have been very busy handling my dad’s new illness and making sure he’s doing well. The school has always been my top priority but lately balancing school, work, and my dad is taking a toll on me. Unfortunately, I barely have time to workout, which I was hopefully aiming for three days a week but even that rarely happens these days. By then end of the semester, I would be a very happy person.
Lastly,

    My main focus for this week was to follow-up on projects that I was previously assigned and to update the management team on my progress. I was able to follow-up with all of the remaining sites as far as their stand still with the I-9 project. While taking on this project I have noticed that a lot of sites face the same issue, which is inconsistencies within their documentation/data. This is strange due to the fact that audits have taken place. This goes to show that there is room for error even when there are audits being done.…

    Right now, October 2017, about six weeks into sophomore year, and I feel like I’m under a massive amount of stress. College tends to be the topic up for discussion, so my parents expect me to have B+’s and higher in the grade book. Also, my grandfather’s were both in band, so a requirement for me is to learn and memorize four pages of music, then learn another three pages for All Region and re-auditions in the middle of November, and remember about fortyseven spots on the football field. Feeling the pressure by parents and friends to accomplish multiple different tasks can be extremely overwhelming. A large amount of people around the world know and understand the fear, stress, and idea of trying to succeed at many objectives at one time that…

    As the season of fall approaches here at Texas A&M University Corpus Christi, I have reached the middle of my fall semester as a freshmen college student. Midterms are approaching and I am pulling my hair out due to the sleepless nights and long hours of studying for midterms. There are some students are planning activities for Halloween while I on the other hand am preparing my study guide for my Microeconomic midterm. The closest to a break I would have from school would be Thanksgiving break, and during the break I would return home and begin working for my family. All the stress I am feeling about school could be due to my unorganized school schedule and responsibility of renting an apartment.…

    In the beginning of high school, I couldn’t understand the importance of handling my responsibilities, especially when it came to my school work. I just couldn’t find the motivation to hand in stuff like homework on time. I actually started to do less and less each school year. I never try to fix my problem because there were never any consequences to it. I would pass all my classes with decent grades with no problems despite ignoring a lot of the work, but then I was called by my English teacher to stay after class.…

    In the Spring of last year, it was my Junior year, one of the most critical years in high school. It’s the year that colleges look at the most, also it was the year that I was in some of the most challenging classes. Mostly honors, a lot of homework, and tests to go along with it. Studying would take me until late at night, and even on weekends, all day long. When it’s the end of the term everyone checks their grades for their report cards, and progress reports.…

    In January my drive to get out of Crafton by passing all my class was strong but then after the weeks going by it just took a tow on me. I won’t know if I passed my anatomy until tomorrow or Monday. Which is going to be feel like an eternity. My thoughts are still strong about passing all my class, but I’m mentally exhausted. The reason I felt so strong about this is because I can suffer now or I suffer my whole life working a minimum paid job.…

    The Lesson in Quitting For the past 7 years of my life, swimming has played a huge role. Growing up, I had always enjoyed being in the water, and was one of the odd kids that genuinely enjoyed swimming lessons, no bribes required (thinking about it, I wish I had some of those kids in the lessons I teach now). Overtime, it began to feel less like a passion and more like an obligation; something I had committed to that was too late to stop. I was afraid to quit, afraid to disappoint, and trying to be dedicated to a sport I had lost interest in made me start to hate it. This year, I finally decided to drop the sport, and am now embracing the huge change it has had in my life.…

    As my first semester almost ends, there is a plethora of aspects that played a major role in how much stress and pressure I have encountered. These aspects have created negative and positive outlooks on college and life, which is evident in my attitude as the semester closes. I have experienced so much pressure, and anxiety from one semester because of my perfectionism. I am constantly checking Moodle and MyClaflin to be on top of things. From this semester, I have reviewed various syllabuses and schedules of assignments, which has all become a blur.…

    My Motivation: What motivates me the most to pursue a college degree is that I will be the first person in my family to receive one. My grandmother is the backbone behind this motivation because she was always making sure that academics came first in my life. There was rarely a day that I would come home and she would not ask me questions about my homework, asking what I learned in school, or even looked over my homework. As I got older, she made sure I was a part of a college prep program called AVID from 6th-12th grade and that definitely made a difference for me. It helped me understand the importance of continuing your education and how beneficial it can be to succeeding in life.…
