(This essay is under the premise that I just got accepted into Deerfield. Whenever I say you I’m referring to my future self who is graduating from Deerfield.)

If you are reading this now, congratulations on graduating from Deerfield. I'm sure it wasn't easy but you're graduating from Deerfield and moving onto to bigger and better things. Right now I was just accepted into Deerfield and I am excited. Actually excited is an understatement; I'm thrilled. There are a multitude of things I want to accomplish. On the contrary, however, I am anxious about going to Deerfield for quite a few reasons also. Going into Deerfield, I plan to do a myriad of activities. I plan to join clubs, play sports, and maybe even start a club of …show more content…
One reason is that I'm going to high school. To me, going to your freshman year in high school is like going to space. You are overjoyed at the experience to go, but you're nervous because you don't know what awaits you. However, high school, in and of itself, isn't what is causing me to be anxious. It is the fact that when I go to Deerfield, I will be going to a boarding school. This will be the first time that I will be away from my parents for so long. I'm concerned about my transition from day to boarding. Not to imply that I'm not ready or irresponsible, it's just that living away from my parents will be a new experience for me. In addition, making new friends also has me restless. Even though I am the person to go and try to make friends with other people, I do feel nervous about whether or not I will fit in. However, when I visited Deerfield the students seemed very inviting and I feel that I will have no problem with this issue. Nevertheless, I can't help but ruminate. These are my only fears about going to Deerfield. People always say you have to face your fears, so I can't wait to go to Deerfield in the fall to face them and officially end my middle school journey and start my high school

    Personal Narrative: Caldwell Community College

    I have always been independent, but I fully seeked independence when I was 16 years old. This was the year of 2016, and this was the year that my life changed; I was forced to grow up and learn how to be more independent. The first step to my seeking of independence was turning 16 years old and getting my driver’s license. This meant I was finally able to go out on my own and not rely on others to take me places anymore. In the year of 2016, I also began taking classes at Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute to earn college credits.…

    Beach Appeal Letter

    Dear, Point Pleasant Beach High School I would like to thank Beach's program for touring me around the school during the open house and Dr. Grosshandler for taking the time out of his day to discuss my possible future with Point Pleasant Beach and its amazing academic program. Beach has gained a reputation of producing intelligent students and sending them off to college. Being considered for a program with such a productive system brings a monumental amount of joy to me and my family. Over the course of this school year, I have begun to realize the difference between my old school, Point Pleasant Boro, and my new school, Spring Lake Heights. Heights has a smaller population which benefits the students for multiple reasons.…

    Personal Narrative: Growing Up In A Military Family

    From growing up in a military family, I have become very resilient and I adapt really well to change. With my surroundings changing all the time, I have to be able to quickly adapt to my new setting and find ways to fit in as quickly as possible. I have been to about twelve different schools so far, and I have lived in about eight different houses. When I live on a military base, change is constant, even if it is not my own family experiencing the orders to move that year. The houses around me fill and empty all the time with new people, and some of the military dominant schools I have been to have the same problem.…

    Reflective Essay: My Experience At Eckerd College

    All it took was three days. Three days for my view on life, the way I live, and how I view others to change. Towards the middle of my sophomore year I received an email from my guidance counselor asking me if I wanted to attend the HOBY seminar during the summer. Only one student from the high school was chosen to go, and I was honored to have been that one. HOBY stands for the Hugh O’ Brian Youth Leadership Seminar.…

    Honors College Application

    As a recent graduate from the Honors College, I have spent the past four years learning the requirements and opportunities offered from the Honors College, growing in a community full of driven people, and most importantly, testing my aptitude and fortitude in pursuance of my goals. The Honors College provided me the support and resources, while simultaneously fueling my growing interest in academia. It was with great displeasure that I viewed my next few years at the University at Buffalo apart from the Honors College, and thus it is with keen interest that I am responding to the posting from the Honors College listserv for the Graduate Assistant position. As both a PhD student in the Classics Department and an undergraduate in the Physics…

    Just surviving in the halls of a high school is how many people try to go about their four years of education, however this will not help you grow into a better person. High school has been a place that can be compared to a weight room for me.

    My College Admissions Essay: My Journey To Success

    I was born in Germany with a German mother and an American father. The benefit of being born into a German family and living in Europe for the first ten years of my life was the greatest privilege I experienced throughout my sixteen years of living. However, my father was in the military at the time causing for a slight pressure to always be prevalent for the duration of my younger years. This mainly revolved around the fact that my sister was able to grow up in Germany and I wanted that same opportunity. Soon after these aspirations were formed, they became mere dreams that never would be fulfilled because my dad was given orders to either move to Mississippi or Oklahoma, which both deemed to be the middle-of-nowhere.…
