Senior Year Begins
I can't handle the fact yet that I am a senior, I remember when I was promoting from Jr. High School and I was excited to be a freshmen and coming into the high school, these years have flew by. Being a senior makes me so proud, that I have accomplished so much within the past 4 years. I remember when I first transferred here to Lindsay high school like if it was just yesterday. I didn't really pay attention when relatives and family friends told me “high school is going to be over before you know it.” I can not wait to see what my senior year brings me and also to see what I have accomplished.
The first two weeks of my senior year I have already made the most out of it and it seems like we have been in school longer, my classes are great and my teachers are awesome, I’m happy that i'm on pace with my work and moving on to the right classes. Pushing myself to accomplish my goals is definitely going to be worth it in the end. For my senior project i'm working on how i'm going to set up my website and put everything together, I can't wait until it is accomplished and perfect to present at my interview. The most interesting thing about my senior project is that i'm actually discovering things about myself that I never really payed attention to, the little things that I thought didn't matter these past years have changed me entirely and has shown me that everything I do matters and that the decisions I made is what got me here today.
Most things I am looking forward to participate in a lot of activities and to be more involved with my school since it is my last year here. I also am looking forward to pass my classes this semester and get done with what needs to be done. I just can't wait until they call onto my name and have me walk down that aisle and receiving my diploma and showing everyone who doubted me wrong. I look forward to applying to the colleges I am interested in, and for filling my dreams after high school, such as becoming a coroner or if that doesn't work out to be a nurse .
My goals for this year is to stay on track and not to worry about what the kids I hang out with are doing, being more dependent on myself is what I really want to accomplish this year because it's my own job to stay on track, and if I mess that up then that’s my own fault. Finishing the classes I need done in order to go to college is what I must have accomplished. After high school I want to keep going to school and I can't do that if I didn't finish my courses my high school years. I am setting my goals to get my majors and bachelor's degree later on in my life.

Before First Semester Ends Since my last journal not much has changed. It still hasn't hit me that I am going to be graduating in June. I didn't realize how difficult this year was going to be. My classes proceeded to go well, I still have some important tasks that need to be finished but they will get done. Problems I am having with my senior project is to how to set it up. This first semester has been good and bad to me. But I know all in the end it will be all worth it.
Things that I need to accomplish this semester is my physiology class, I honestly got side tracked and it ended up being really difficult but I am getting it done little by little. I know for next semester I need to step up my game and become more responsible for my work and set new goals to meet deadlines. It is a bad habit but I will soon fully commit to it. I also need to step it up with my Algebra 2 class but my teacher is constantly busy and seems to have no time for me. I stay after school but I have a life of my own with my job, and he keeps me after class but he still needs time for his other students, I basically don’t need that class to graduate so I am switching to a different elective. It is too late to start catching up with that class. Other than that my classes are great, first semester has been good to me. Some problems I am struggling with my senior project is my website, deciding how to set up my pages and how I am going to edit it? It is kind of a hassle to put together but once it is done it will be perfect. I am enjoying my senior project by working and getting help from my peers. Setting up my website is actually really fun. I love how I can do it the way I want to. It is a project that is all about me. I can do it however I want without limitations and it is great. I am also enjoying my senior year with making a lot of new friends and joining activities that I thought I would never be apart of. Currently, I am preparing my post-graduation I registered for COS to take my general ed. |
The Start of My Last Semester
My whole life has passed me by but it has been such a great life. I am heading into the right direction and can’t wait to walk in my cap and gown and hear my name be called for my diploma. I am mostly struggling only with one class but I am determined to finish it, that is my only goal for the rest of the remaining year.
Applying to colleges is something I never thought I would do. Being the first out of my family to actually go to college is such a great privilege and hope that after me my brother, sister, and my younger cousins look up to me and make the right decisions and take their education seriously and make it far in life. I just want to make my family proud. Even though I am applying to community colleges, I am still going to transfer to a university after my general ed. So I’m still figuring everything out. With help from teachers and counselors everything's gone great so far.
Getting ready for my post-graduation life is a little hard only because I’m still debating on what and how I am going to do things. I am indecisive about my career option but I know I will be led into the right direction and will have a good outcome with whatever decision I make. It’s scary to think that in a couple months I am going to be officially on my own. I’m almost an adult and in a blink of an eye I will be looking back at this and be so proud of myself. Thankful for everything that has came across or tried to stop me from my goals. I will make it.
Winter break was great, being together with my family and friends is always a good thing. For the holidays it was pretty special. Being away from my family is hard and when I finally got to see them after a couple months warmed my heart. A week left of my vacation I looked back on first semester and realized that I am already halfway through my last year of high school. Time passed within a blink of an eye. I love how I have met so many people this year and making new friends. Getting to know more about my classmates during our last year seems pretty weird because when have they been these past 3 years? I am very happy but regret waiting so long to break out of my shell.
It still hasn’t hit me that I am a senior and so close to the end of the year, I just don’t think I want to grow up yet and start my life. My mind is set on my future but my heart just doesn’t want to leave this great experience.e to edit.

Almost Done..
It has finally hit me. In just a couple months I am going to be walking in my cap and gown and getting my diploma. It hit me when I was calling relatives and giving them my graduation date so they can request the day off work. When I made my last call I choked. Tears started to drop and at first I didn’t even realize that I was crying, I looked in the mirror and I thought oh my gosh it’s really happening.. My aunt was laughing and told me she was really proud of me and told me she would definitely be there.
There's so many emotions that describe my feelings toward graduation. I am so excited, I am so close to starting my life and being on my own. Then again I’m scared, and being on my own is going to be a big change. I am going to grow away from my friends here that I have made. We are all gonna be adults and move away, grow up and start our own families. High School has really given me a great experience and has really prepared me. I am ready for whatever God has planned for me in my future.
I still need to pay off my cap and gown. I didn’t realize how expensive being a senior was. I’m glad I am working though and I am able to buy everything on my own and for myself. I also still have to finish my community hours, I only need twelve more hours completed. I did eight hours with my job shadow and it was great. I will get those done before the due date.
The things that I am looking forward to is walking and starting school in the fall. I just want to be the first one in my family to go to college and have a great career, and hope that my younger cousins and siblings can look up to me and follow me in my footsteps. For me to make a difference in their lives will make me realize how blessed I am. Surrounding myself with the people I love and especially who love me will support me in where I am going with my life. That is my ultimate goal, for my family to just be proud of me.
Looking back on my senior year I am happy to say that Lindsay High School gave me a great experience. I am thankful for all of the friends I made this year and breaking out of my shell, I don’t know how I would get through highschool without the friends that I have made. All the memories I have made here I am going to remember them forever.
