In the middle of typing my story on the class computer I went to the snack closet and pulled out a big bag of Hot Cheetos. While I was eating and trying to type my story at the same time she called me over to her desk. I sat down in the chair right next to her and we started discussing college plans. I told her I want Journalism to be my major. She had this astonished look on her face like I gave her the winner numbers for the lottery. Ms. Mathews was telling me how sophisticated I am compared to the students there in school. I can still remember the exact same word she said to me after discussing college and she told me “You are going to make it in journalism.” Ms. Mathews has a reputation for being a discourteous teacher. Ms. Mathews has 20 inches of grey hair in a ponytail, wears dark color clothing with some flower patterns on them and she looks like she’s in her late forties. The way people were describing her to me made it seem like she dressed monotonously and has a rude attitude all the time. Ms. Mathews and I got along very well and she’s truly an excellent educator. After having a conversation with her for an hour she logged out of the computer, gathered some of her items, told me “I’m getting ready to leave, but please make sure you close the door when you leave “, smiled and

    Growing up we all looked forward to starting high school, but how many of us enjoyed every bit of it? High school was a moment that I looked forward to; thoughts of doing what I finally wanted to flood my mind. In June 2008, I received my GSAT result and was delighted when I saw that I passed for the William Knibb Memorial High School; although a bit disappointed because it wasn’t on my top five list. High school was not everything that I expected. In a few days, I met a few nice people. The first week of school was amazing, but after a few weeks things started getting intense. High school; however, was no bed of roses, especially when it came onto the subjects, reports, and school rules.…

    The future is unpredictable, and with it come more and more responsibilities. Are you the same person you were before? Or have these actions and responsibilities molded you to become the person you are today? Is the same person that started high school four years ago standing where you are, or is that person long gone? For me, the transition through high school has changed me thoroughly. I’ve noticed that high school has made me sharper about whom to trust and I judge people more than I used to. High school gives you more options, viewpoints, and ideas. You will change a lot through high school. You’ll mature in almost every way, you will learn more about yourself, who you are and what you believe in. you will go through hard times but eventually get through them. When I started out at the freshman center I knew that I wanted to be a professional football player, but now I’m not so sure what I want to be. A couple of major events that occurred through my high school career have changed my mind on things.…

She was caring, kind, and a well educated person.…

    I started school at Antelope Elementary, and my teacher's name was Ms. Love, she was one of the best teachers ever! She was so nice and kind to everyone. Ms. Love got married at the beginning of the year and so she had changed her name to Mrs. Wright. I was confused after this and she got mad at everyone that called her Ms. Love because that was not her name anymore. I didn't like her as much after she was married, but then, a month into kindergarten we took a pretest, I am not sure what it was on but I knew everything. Know I thought of how easy school would be and now thinking of this school is pretty easy because I am smart! I was only about six at the time of this and I had no idea what was happening. We went into the principal’s office and she was really nice. I took another test. I passed this test to with one hundred percent! The next day I wasn't in my class anymore. I was in the first grade! My teacher's name was Mrs. Collingwood and to this day she is my favorite teacher because she was so welcoming and loving to everyone. I went into my class and I noticed that the first graders are so intimidating I thought. They were taller and smarter and I didn’t know what to do or how to…

    First of all, from the first Day of high school to the 5th week, I was confused, excited, and lost. For example, I was excited because I wanted to meet new people and extend my leadership skills. In addition, I was confused because it was a whole different schedule and there was a variety of new topics that I had never heard about. Furthermore, I was lost because the school was enormous and there were a lot of new things to deal with. To conclude, during the first five weeks I still felt like it was summer so I didn’t have my act together which made a couple of things tough on me.…
