Graduation is coming fast and it seems like if time is just moving faster and faster every week, this is the time that most students are looking forward too and have been waiting for. For me graduation is not a big deal because I felt like high school was not that difficult or not that important, what will be a big deal for me is my college graduation. High school formed me and made me realize what type of people I do like or do not like. I have been counting down the days until I start college, I want to get my college done with and then starting my career. The only things that are holding me back from graduating are English 12 and AP Gov, other then these classes I am ready to graduate and have met every requirement other than those two classes. Im also looking forward to grad night and being with all of my friend since most of them are going to go to the grad night celebration. I am excited to start a new chapter in my life and I am ready to start. I really hope that I can get into CSUN because that is the school that most interest me. If I get declined from CSUN then my other choices are either UCR,CSUB, or CSUCI. I've visited all these campuses except Channel Islands, I have yet to visit this campus but I hope to visit it if I do not get into Northridge. I have reached out to CSUN twitter page and have tweeted about them and everytime i tweet about them they like my tweets. I want to major in biochemistry and want to be a pharmacist, I hope I can achieve my goal and graduate as soon as possible so I can get started with my PharmD. Coming to Lindsay High School really pushed me into the right direction and has made me the person I am today, I am glad that I met the people I met and had the learning facilitators that I had because they played a major role in making me the person I am. The learning facilitator that influenced me the most has to be my junior year psychology teacher, Ms. McElmoyl, she always believed in me and she saw something in me that no other learning facilitator saw and I was always grateful for having her in my life although I didn't really show it. She had a major impact in my high school career.

As my winter comes to an end I have came to the conclusion that I am being unproductive and should probably focus more time on school rather than being with my friends and having fun. From my first semester I found out that my Trig class is going to be harder than I expected and I am thinking about dropping it, I regret signing up for it. Last semester took me by storm and made me realize so much, AVID opened my eyes to many things that were needed for college.
AVID is pushing me in the right direction and is keeping me focused, AVID really opened my eyes and made me more aware with deadlines. In order for me to graduate I need to finish both Government and English 12, I am on pace for both of these classes and I know that if I apply myself I will be able to finish the classes without ease. Neither of these classes are hard or require much work to pass, if anything Government is the harder class because it is a advance placement class, but if I can keep with the teacher or maybe work ahead I will be able to finish the class like I am suppose too. I can't forget to finish my first semester of my Trig class because I told my universities that I was going to pass the semester but I actually received an IP, so I have to take matters into my own hand and finish the semester on my own. I do not want this to jeopardize any of my college acceptances, I really don't want this little mistake to affect me. The CSU’s that I applied to were Channel Islands, Bakersfield, Long Beach, and Northridge. The UC’s that I applied for were Merced, Santa Barbara, Riverside, and Irvine. I really hope that I can get into CSUN because that is the school that I see myself going for the next four years, I visited this campus and I fell in love with it, I am so eager to get accepted into this school. This school is the only school that I am actually looking at and keeping up with their portals. I really hope that I hear good news from CSUN because I will be heartbroken if I don't. Well, maybe I won't cry but I do really want to go to this school. My next school that intrigues me is UC Riverside, UCR got my attention because of the area and because they have a good Biochemistry program. So far my senior year has been nothing but laughs and fun times, I feel like im stress free, but that's just because I run away from stressful situations. I do not like showing people that I am stressed or that I care about something so I try my best to not do so. So far this school year has reminded me that I am going to be an adult in a couple of more months and I should prepare myself for the real world. I've applied for colleges and I still can't embrace all of it, I still feel like a freshman and sometimes I still act like one.
The amount of motivation that I have has gone down because I don't feel like it will matter if I improve anymore, because the college I am planning on attending is not that hard to get into and I don't want to stress too much. I feel like I should get more involved with school and try to be more enthusiastic with what I do. I just want to get this year over with and find out if I got into the school that I want to attend. The event that I am most looking forward to is grad night and then graduation, grad night is going to be the day that most of us seniors will make memories with each other. It seems like most of our class does not get along and this is a bad thing because it feels like almost every one holds a grudge against each other, it is said that they are trying to get our class to be more cooperative during grad night, but in all reality that is not going to happen. It is kind of sad that our class doesn't really get along well because I am a person that likes to talk to everyone and sometimes I am unable of doing that because some group of people do not like other group of people or they do not like to associate themselves with them. This has made hanging out with friends a little bit harder to do because not everyone can hangout with everyone. This also affected me in the way that I choose to hangout with people because every group of my friends have different interest and they do not all like to do the same things. I just want everyone to get along with everyone so that people won't feel like they are too cool for one another. My senior year so far has been pretty easy, the classes I have this year are not as hard as the classes that I had my junior year. I feel like I am going to enjoy this year more than I enjoyed last year because I have at least one class that I can just go in and not be stressing about it and that class is digital art. Senior year might also be stressful like my junior year but instead of stressing over me not passing one of my classes I will be stressing of me not getting accepted by one of the colleges I am going to be applying to.
It is good to know that I will stay on pace in all my class since i'm following a strict schedule, this schedule is not only helping me stay on pace but it is allowing me to work with the time that I do have and to also avoid procrastination since that is a major reason why people fall behind. Getting good grades while having a job is on of the things I like to do because it makes me feel like I am better than others, because I compare my grades to other people's grades and see that we got similar grades but the difference is that they don't have a job and I make them feel like they didn't try their best because a person with less time on their hand just got the same grade as them. My goal this year is to stay on the pace I am going but to focus more on my SAT because that is what is going to hold me back if I don't bump up my score. The reason why my SAT is one of my top priorities is because colleges don't accept students unless they have a pretty good score, the score I got last year was not so awful but it wasn't where I want it to be. Given that I have fairly good grades the SAT is more important to me. My goal for the future is to be a pharmacist, in order for me to do this I need to get into a good college that is good for science. since I want to be a pharmacist I need to major in one type of science and the science that I am going to majoring in is going to be either biochemistry, or any other type of biology major, since universities ask you for another major just in case you get rejected from your first major, my back up major is going to be psychology just because I love the topic. Psychology was one of my favorite classes that I took my junior year and I wished they would offer another level of it. Once I see that I have gotten into the college that I have wanted then that's when I will feel like highschool was all worth it but until then I will keep trying the most I can. |
