High School Musical 2

During my sophomore year in high school, a friend of mine convinced me to try out for the majorette team at my school. I never thought in a million years that I would ever be a majorette. In fact, I didn’t even know what a baton was or how to even twirl one. Even though I was clueless I was ready to learn all that I can. I remember trying out and thinking I would most likely not make the team but I still went out there and tried my best because I believe in the slim possibility that I had a…

Everyone has a high school experience. There’s generally two sides to every school. The outsiders and the popular kids. Now don’t get me wrong, there’s lots of different kinds of people that make up the popularity food chain that is high school. Some people think high school is the best years of your life while others tend to disagree. There are several differences between being an outsider and being in the popular crowd. One of the first differences between being an outsider and being popular…

In middle school a young boy named John had some shy problems and he was afraid to talk to people and make new friends because he was afraid to make a fool of himself. He will have a small conversation with someone but after about one minute he'd dart out fast. He would try to talk to some people but they would have nothing in common with them and he'd get shy and walk away feeling like a fool. There was this one kid in his math class who he thought they had a lot in common and one day they got…

Through the lies and starving eyes of the monster, called life, with the nickname of high school, there was always someone lurking around every corner waiting to knock down its next victim. Waiting for someone to doubt themselves just for a second so they can whisper things to ravage everything that they have or will have. It was at the commencement of high school where I realized that we were the verdant people celebrating that everything was just one sizable voluminous fantasy and that…

Something I have loved about attending high school is there is something for everyone whether you are into sports, theater or even just challenging yourself with DC/AP classes. I have never been one for sports. I love attending them and cheering on the team, but when it comes to actually playing the sport, I can’t kick, throw or catch a ball to save my life. That’s why going to high school is great! I am able to focus on what I am good at and enjoy doing. My education is something…

the statement that high school contained the best years of my life held no merit to me. I recall my freshman reputation presenting itself as one commonly found among the introverted crowd; unpopular, lonely, and scared of stepping a toe out of line. I felt trapped by dullness and repetition I’d brought upon myself. This instance rings itself as one of my most noticeable moments of high school purely for my stunted assimilation into high school culture; I avoided clubs, after-school plans, and…

I think what sets me apart from other students applying to the University of California is my innate work ethic and drive to be successful. I look back to when I was a child playing catch with my dad in the backyard for hours at a time. I have had a drive to be successful and work hard to accomplish my goals since I was little. This is evident in my years of dedication to baseball. When other kids were playing with their friends or watching television, I was out practicing my craft. Every day,…

She is shown as the main character, as well as the narrator of the novel who was revealed as a rape victim…

Have you ever thought about what high school would be like? I have. I have thought of many things that high school would be like. I t would be like you are on cloud nine one day and then you would be in a torture house called school the next day. There are many things for you to look forward to. You could try out for sports or be in school clubs. You would also have cooking class. If you like doing work on a farm then FFA (future farmers of america) is calling you name. There is…

They say that high school is about opening doors, exploring your opportunities and expanding your horizons, so as an optimistic freshman, terrified of joining a new school and hoping to find a place where I would belong, I joined the most obvious, extremely popular activity: water polo. Me, the girl who has not participated in organized sports since my soccer team in second grade. Me, the girl who had not been in a pool since I was pronounced a “Guppy” at the Y when I was seven years old. Me,…
