How To Write A Lakeview Essay

Improved Essays
During my school age years, I attended Lakeview Elementary. I still go and visit the teachers and staff I had every once in awhile because they mean so much to me. Some other things I really enjoyed in school was having reading buddies, field day, and the Fridays in 5th grade when my teacher would play the guitar. At the end of the second grade, I started to get really sick with headaches, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Over the next few years, I saw many doctors and was diagnosed with migraines which may be from the car accident and last the rest of my life. Throughout my childhood, I had one extremely close best friend. We would hang out everyday in the summer (literally) and most weekends of the school year.

For freshman and sophomore year, I went to school here at Neenah High. Then, I transferred to St. Mary Central for the start of my junior but ended up transferring back to NHS halfway through the year because my dad lost his job.

As an adolescent, my household has changed a lot because my siblings are already living on their own and we adopted my cat, Norman. I get more attention than when my siblings lived at home. Because I am the youngest of three, I feel like I need to be as good as my brother and sister. There are times when I feel I am not meeting my parents expectations. Conflicts are still handled the same way even though there have been times that there should have been a different discipline in my opinion. Some significant event was my summer vacation to California for San Diego Comic Con. I also lost my Grandpa and my Uncle

    There are various reasons as to why I’m deserving of the Etna-Dixmont School Scholarship. The most prevalent reason is my family history and connection with the town of Dixmont.

    In 2006, I began my journey at The Valley School as a first grade student. Moving over from my previous school, which I had attended from the time I was three until I was six years old, was fairly smooth. I had friends who made the switch with me and, being the social butterfly I was, making new friends was a breeze. In the first few years as a student, I saw Valley move into three buildings.…

    The moment I stepped foot into Freeburg High School, I knew I was in for a big change. I remember when Smithton took the 8th grade class to the high school for a tour of where we would be going the next four years and as soon as we got there I practically freaked out as to how big of a change it was. Seeing the school on the outside, I thought it would be super difficult to get around because of how large it was, but the inside looked even more complicated. It was also really difficult for me to even start a conversation with most teachers, let alone joining any clubs or sports. Either way, I knew was that if my sisters could get through high school so I could too.…

    Countless of times, I find myself wishing I was born earlier. Maybe it is because I have an old soul. Therefore, the past has a special allure to me, and I often turn to it to escape from our grim, day to day reality. Even though I’m well aware of all the benefits of living in the present day, I still can’t help myself feeling nostalgic when visiting old castles, attending medieval fairs or even reading books about Ancient Rome, lost civilizations or myths and mythology. Something comes alive for me that is impossible to experience in the present day.…
