Personal Narrative: My Sophomore Year Of My Life

would see her way more. At this point in my life, I actually would talk to her more and ask for advice from her because I wasn’t so scared to do so. We got a closer bond this way. We knew everything about each other, without me having to read in her dairy. As I grown into a mature teenager, I noticed that I am really a mini Katie after all. Even though I did things on my own, it was still similar to the things Katie was doing. Having her my freshman year of high school was truly a blessing. Sophomore year was one of the most hardest years I have ever had. Not going to school with my sister everyday and seeing her in the hallways killed me. Those little things made my entire day. I cried for months went she left for college. She is the one I

    "Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty and persistence" I have had many ups and downs over the course of my life thus far. One specific example of this took place during my freshman year of high school. When I started high school it was very challenging for me, partially due to the fact that; during this time, I was lazy, unmotivated and did not really take school seriously. This by far is one of my biggest regrets to this day. Who would ever think that not trying during my freshman year would continue to follow me throughout the course of my academic career.…

    For the past year, I could only provide an indefinite answer to a frequently asked question, How was your freshman year? In fact, those of us who experienced our freshman year could be addressed as “college veterans” will never initiate a conversation with regard to the past year. Perhaps they consider that the freshman year was not as consummate as they initially planned. I cannot judge my first year in college was successful or frustrating, but I feel I benefited from the meritorious experiences and practical knowledge gained from my college life. In my opinion, no matter what goals one wishes to achieve in college, whether its grade, love, health, or sense of accomplishment, one has to be prepared for both failures and…

    Katie and I were born three minutes apart on December 16th, 1996. Since that day I have had a best friend and someone who tells me the truth no matter what the situation is. It is always nice to know that someone will be there for you through everything and love just the same. Throughout school we were each other’s best friend so we both had someone always there. From getting our licenses to getting our ears pierced together I was always a little less scared to do things throughout my life.…

    The day of August 27, 2012 I was officially titled a freshman. One look down those unknown red and blue walls, will forever change my perspective of high school. There was an instant moment of disbelief in my freshman, I was terrified, and no thought came to mind as to how I was going to survive high school for the next four years. Of course I knew it'll be different from my tiny middle school, but will it be like the cliché movies about the upcoming of age, or resemble the happiest times of life. From that first day, I knew I wasn’t like everyone else.…

    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.…

I was blind sided when she told me she had kissed another boy. Ironically, she was the one to break up with me, even after I forgave her.…

    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.…

    My freshman year was one of my craziest school year. It came from fake hall passes, to skipping in the restroom, and acting all bad by getting referrals. I remember my ap secretary always used to call me “Diablo” just because i always got in trouble and she said i used to drive her crazy. I just never cared about the consequence of skipping so much, good thing I never got caught. Meeting new friends and new attitudes and a little more of responsibility and to be honest waking up so early every single morning was not that fun.…
