Personal Narrative: My Final Grade School

Improved Essays
As I am approaching my final years of grade school I have realized that life is catching up quick. Before CRW I had no clue that so much goes into applying and getting accepted by a college. I makes me worry about my future and what my life is going to become. I know that I am on the right track, I watch my grades, I get involved in society, and I am trying to find my passion. There are also multiple things have come up that never occurred to me. There are things like, am I going to be able to achieve what I am wanting for myself, can I pay for these expensive schools and so much more. I have looked at a few colleges and seen their standards. Looking at their needs has shown me what I need to achieve and what skills I need to obtain.

    From my personal experience, when I was in elementary school I remember my teacher would let us sit on yoga ball it always helped me concentrate and it helped me when I was really active because I could not move around, it will make me fall if I move around. I like the idea of standing desks because I prefer standing a lot but when I need to I could sit down on the tool, but I could still move my legs around and be somewhat active. So if one day you're feeling antsy you can just stand. Also I think if your tired it could help you stay awake. Mark Benden also states that sitting desk can cause kids to be obese, he also says that too much sitting is bad for your health.…

Over the years I became involved with extracurricular activities which led to my primary interest I had developed in technology and the sciences. As a freshman I joined the Students with Future Interests in Technology Club, Spanish Club, and Robotics Club.

    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.…

    Prior to middle school, I thought I was satisfied with my position. I had friends, got along with my teachers, excelled in sports, and got decent grades in my classes. Back then, I thought this well-roundedness I sought between these necessities would offer me self-satisfaction. Little did I know, however, that I was going to confront this well-rounded nature of mine during my first awards ceremony in middle school. Among the most intelligent, artistic or athletic of the students present there, I was the one of the few who simply struggled to stand out.…

    The change from a life completely dependent upon my parents to a life where I am solely responsible for myself and all my actions was perhaps the most challenging aspect of this semester. I have come to realize how much my experiences inside and outside of my classes will shape me throughout my time at Texas A&M. Since my 4-year plan has been shortened to a 2-year plan due to my determination to graduate early, I have come to the realization that I need to mature at a much faster pace. During my first two months at Texas A&M, I began to have second thoughts about wanting to graduate early, because i was unsure if I would be able to keep up academically and socially. I realized the vast amount of maturity and responsibility I would need to approach my decisions with and many times I felt quite overwhelmed. My personal feelings in the beginning of the semester really engendered self-doubt, but were all part of the drastic change I was not accustomed to.…

    High school changes people. They express themselves, become opinionated, and they start to look at the world differently as they experience things they have never encountered before. A wise Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “Man’s mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimensions.” This quote is an excellent way to describe my experience in high school.…

I took on those same fears and hopes that I had faced before, but in an unfamiliar place where I had no one except for family to give me support. I tried a lot of new things that year, mainly wrestling.…

I disliked almost everything about it but what I did not know at the time is that by my senior year I would eventually love this school as I molded it into a place that I wanted to be at. During the end of my freshmen year, I found myself with a new view of how I was going to cultivate at Springfield Township High School. After meeting a valuable presence that will have forever leave an imprint on me, I decided that I needed to get involved with school to become apart of it. From that moment, the following year, I signed up for the Academic Team meanwhile continuing the Word Language Club which I had joined Freshmen Year and Girl Scouts which…

But deep down i knew it was it was because I had two left feet, one good eye, and butter fingers.…
