Pig's Commitment To School

Improved Essays
Your commitment to school is like breakfast. If breakfast was ham and eggs, are you the chicken or the pig? To make ham and eggs, both the chicken and the pig have to make commitments. The chicken is committed to laying eggs for the breakfast. the Pig’s commitment is much greater because it has to die to get the meat. Do you make a smaller commitment or the bigger one?

In the first semester of school, I was a pig. I worked really hard on all my assignments. I never missed an assignment in any class. Also, I got a 4.0 GPA. The class that I was mostly a pig was Biology. I got an A+ in both nine weeks and got an A on the final. My lowest grade was an A- in art so I need to take a little more time on my artwork.

One thing that I am a chicken
