The first marking period was very interesting. I was met with many obstacles and changes that I did not think we’re going to be there for my first marking period in high school. Some of those obstacles were the weekly test that were given, this is especially interesting since back in Middle School we were not met with such stress when it came to learning.

Staying out home when I could be out doing things with my friends sounded more fun but at the same time I had to think about my future, that is why I rarely go out during week
