Personal Narrative: My Life After High School

Decent Essays
So far my high school has been fun and pretty exciting as a freshman. Everything has been really fun and enjoyable. Hope everything is still good where you live after the hurricane. Overall, everything here is perfect and couldn’t ask for anything better. School has been passing by very quickly and wish you were here; it would make school a whole lot more fun. I still wish that we went to the same school and we could hang out after school and do stuff, I really miss those days.
