Personal Narrative: My Last Year Of High School

Decent Essays
For myself personally, making my student life easier comes from the absolute excellences provided by the guidance teachers within my school. From the very first day of grade 9 to now my last year of high school, the various fields of knowledge supplied whether in regards to classes, personal matters, planning out my future, clubs/involvement, community hours, reviewing undergrad programs/univerities, or simply going in to talk about anything was overwhelming helpful. Knowing that there were those besides family and friends wanting me to reach my greatest potential is very comforting.

    Secondly teacher students relationship are very beneficial in this case. From personal experience I am very close to a staff member at my school names Mr. Navarro.

    In high school my most outstanding example of a time when I set an example as a student leader was my sophomore year in high school. My sophomore year of high school I was brought up to the varsity soccer team, the team that I was on was not extremely hard working and or dedicated.

    A dilemma that I faced, and still am facing is simply the decision about what I want to do with my life after my high school career. In my freshman year of high school my goal was simply to get through the year in one piece. I was forced to conform to my new environment and all the strict rules that came along with it. Along with that it was the sudden transition from being the "big dogs" as eighth graders at my middle school to being "fresh-meat" in my first year high school. With so much attention placed on me as a freshman like on the varsity basketball team, where I was constantly forced to prove my worth to the coach and the players, to stepping out of my comfort zone and performing in a mandatory play for the rest of the the school as…
