The Beginning of a New Year Well, today is the second day of school and so far it’s been going pretty well. The classes that I got this year are good. I still can’t believe that I am graduating this year and it feels weird because this is my last year in high school. I do have to say that I am excited for all the activities that will be happening this year. For sure my friends and I will be getting into school spirit. It’s scary to think that after high school I’m going to be kind of on my own. I’ll be an adult making big choices for my life and I’m not ready for that, but I have to be. I haven’t been working on my senior project consistently, which is not good. I did work on it during the summer. I also did my job shadow during the summer and worked on my website a little. For my website I want it to look different than anyone has done before. I also want my website to really represent who I am. This school year my schedule was not so great when I first saw the classes. I had gotten biology again even though I had finished ag biology back when I was a sophomore. On the first day of school I went to see my counselor to get out of Bio, so I became a tutor for ag science. I am also a teacher aid for my third period and I like helping out the teacher. The other classes I have are advanced art, English, ag economics, horticultural science, and leadership. I’m excited to be in leadership because I know I will really get involved with school spirit even more. My goal for this year would have to be to graduate with my class in June. Throughout the school year I will try to be on pace for every grading period. For some of my classes I will try to get level 4s on my assignments. The classes I know that I will try for sure would be ag economics, horticulture science, and leadership. After high school I plan to go to COS for about 2 years and transfer to maybe Fresno State. My major is animal science, but I don’t know what I want to do yet for a career. 11/15/16
Almost The End of The First Semester The first semester of senior year is almost over. I am on pace with my classes well there is one class that I’m not on pace which is English. The class isn’t hard for me I understand it, but I just turn in the work in late. The reason why I do that is because I second guess on my work and I don't think it's right. I know if I continue to do that it won't be good for me once I go to college. My senior project I would say is coming along pretty good; I'm almost done with what I need to have done so far. On my weebly I have to finish my portfolio and my presentation still needs some work. What I learned from my job shadow is I'm not fit for that job because I don't see myself being able to do what they do. I can't handle that much stress and having to put an animal down almost everyday. For my future I want to work with animals and rescue them from troubled places. I recently signed up to go to COS and now I have to take a placement test in January. I'm ready to take the test to find out my classes for next school year. I have to be honest I'm not excited to leave high school yet. I mean in some ways I am happy to be an adult and move into another chapter of my life, but I'm afraid I can't be on my own. The activities I have been involved in this year are FFA, ASB, and I did get nominated for Homecoming. In FFA I went to the Tulare County Fair, Opening/Closing as an officer, corn maze as a chapter, and our monthly chapter meetings. For ASB I get more involved with my school because I helped set up for homecoming, made posters for some events, present slideshows for activities that were coming, and helped plan a rally. Now I got nominated from FFA and I was nervous about the whole thing. My friends helped me out a lot I couldn't have done it without them. I still can't believe that I won Homecoming Queen that week went by so fast, but in that moment I was in shocked that it all happened. 1/15/17
Senior Exit Interview The Senior Exit Interview has you show your life at home, what you do at school, and outside of school. You show this to a panel of community members to share your story to them. To me sharing my story is quite nerve racking, but also exciting to do so. I’m nervous because I don’t want to mess up and I feel like I would forget what I want to say, but I know I have to practice. It’s exciting to share my accomplishments to show that I made wonderful memories while at LHS. The hardest thing for me was staying focusing and turning in my work on time. I tend to procrastinate on my homework especially in my english class. I understand the work I just get distracted and put it to the side to do later which ends up being the last day. The easiest thing for me would be having fun and meeting new people. I would say I was really involved in FFA in my other years, but now in my senior year I am in another club which is ASB that I get very involved with also. Being in FFA and ASB I got to meet new friends and make amazing memories with them. Where has the semester gone because I can not believe how fast it went by. It literally feels like yesterday when it was the beginning of the semester and I’m just in shocked that next semester is my last one as a high school student. |
