My goals at the beginning of the year have been reached. Academically I have grown exponentially. I have never had the grades that I have now. I got into a school that only accepts 52% of their applicants; I am on the honor roll. I have succeeded in my scholastic goals, and now I’m working on my spiritual goals. I have a future ahead of me that will require me to be someone that I have to work on being. I don’t know what my future holds, and I don’t know how long it will take before I get there but I do know that I am going to do everything I can. I am putting my life into balance.
I can’t wait for graduation because that means my life is open for interpretation. I don’t have to attend Alden High School on a daily basis and wait for June 23rd to come around the corner so that I can be around people who are interested in what I’m interested in. I can’t wait for college.
If it weren’t for the goals I set for myself in the beginning of the year, I wouldn’t be the person I am today which is the importance of setting goals. I didn’t hold myself to a standard in previous years so I didn’t try. I didn’t see a reason to try because I wasn’t even thinking about college, I didn’t care. So now, if I can give advice to any freshman coming into high school I would tell them that it ends quickly, and before you know it you need over $100 for college applications. I have switched my major over 3 times over the past year because I’m trying to figure out who I want to be in the future. I will do the same thing I did this year when I’m in college; I will set goals for myself and meet them all by the time I graduate.
