I walked into class and saw other people preparing their questions for their senior interviews I pulled out my paper and and sat there waiting for my senior to arrive. When all the seniors started walking into the room I actually ended up asking my teacher which buddy was mine, because I had forgotten. When I finally found my senior, we went off into a different room where only one other interview was happening. I set up garageband and when I was finally done setting it up my senior, Kent, realized he forgot his phone in another class and ran to go get it. When he finally came back I turned on GarageBand and turned off the surprising tick tick of the metronome I thought was turned off. The first question I asked him was about his first day, in a surprising twist he informed me that “my …show more content…
He said he likes the way the community works at Casco and new the first day he came here that this was the place he wanted to go. We didn't touch much on HOW because he hadn't been here for long but after talking about grading I asked what advice he had on homework management. He responded “start with your homework and then play,”. He said that his friends in college say that high school is much easier In the way of homework, and that you need to learn how to manage your time. After that are time ended and he had to head back. I sat down and talked with my friends about how they're interviews went and then the bell rang and we all ran out to go catch busses, or walk home, or whatever. What I took away from this was how senior my year might be, at least the start, and and how to go about homework management. I also learned a unique perspective of someone coming in to a new high school in senior year. Also that it doesn't matter how long you've been at Casco Bay, this community will instantly accepts

    “Senioritis: An ebbing of motivation and effort by school seniors as evidenced by tardiness, absences, and lower grades” (Merriam-Webster Dictionary. "Senioritis"). All throughout America, thousands of seniors develop symptoms of this debilitating disease, especially during their second semesters. Is this epidemic a legitimate illness, or is senioritis just a rationalization made by lazy students? Although several seniors say otherwise, senioritis is a pseudo-scientific disease employed by students to slack on their studies and extracurricular activities. Despite senioritis being a fake illness, defense mechanisms, or “unconscious process[es] that protect individuals from painful ideas” are commonly used by seniors to make their impending futures seem less frightening ("Defense…

    This research employs interview (both elites and non-elites) and survey sampling as primary data gathering methods.

How does the person understand and explain the trajectory…
