Improvement

Over the past two years I feel that I have significantly gotten better in every aspect of my education. My writing was very non detailed and it lacked a great deal of complexity. My reading has always been proficient. Since the 4th grade I have read at a 12th grade reading level. My use of English has always been at the top of its game. I have never had a problem with my vocabulary or slurring. My group-work skills were not very good coming into high school but I must say that I have gotten much better in participating and choosing hard working partners that are on the same level pace that I am. I never used technology before entering high school but now I am extremely experienced with it. For my last two years of high school I plan to work hard, learn the material being taught to me, and never fail a class again.

My Future

Honestly, I feel like my future has major upside. Not to be cocky or anything but I feel like I am very bright and have a lot of potential. Not only is that my opinion but many others have expressed the same feeling as well. I think that in the next two years I will earn University bound grades, maintain a stable job throughout the week and save some money, and also have a social life on top of that. My goals are to go to a two year rather than straight to a university and then work my way up to a university. I also see myself learning to be a sports analyst which would be my dream job if not actually being involved in sports. This is my views on my future.

Playwrights Project Play Performance Paragraph

One word that describes how I felt through the plays was inspired. Most plays were on very touchy subjects and mainly deal with life of what foster kids had to go through before entering the system. Some stories are extremely crazy. I am inspired by how far these kids have come to overcome their harsh pasts. It's a bit overwhelming to see. But nonetheless these kids are by far the strongest in America emotionally. The strongest are the ones that are able to graduate high school, go to college, and become successful. That in my mind would be my ideal role model.

Greatest High School Achievement

My greatest high school achievement was achieved at the end of the fourth quarter of my Freshman year. I knew I was ahead of all my work for the first half of the quarter and I was pretty consistent all the way throughout the end. I wasn't quite sure if I did as good as I thought. It was Friday, which meant that we would be getting grades and I was super anxious to find out what my overall GPA was for the quarter. So I went straight home after school, ripped open my report card, and found a 3.56 GPA waiting for me inside! I never felt more proud of myself than that moment! It made me realize that if I'm not lazy I can earn high GPA's every time I tried. A 3.5 GPA by far has been my greatest high school achievement. So far!
