What Impact Has This Year Had On Me
What impact has this year had on me This year has had a mostly negative impact on me. My home situation is full of arguments and punishment. My schoolwork is getting better after the hard hit at the beginning of the year, but it could use improvement. And miscellaneous activities have not been correct, or even smart. This year was probably the worst out of all of my high school years. My home life started out okay, but turned into a disastrous mishap. It was slowly rising, with me rising with it, a bump here and there, but I was on fire. However, like all good things it came to an end. It could not rise any higher, so the only place it could go was down. It went from being this incredible life to being a huge drain. And it is still descending, just not as rapidly. I tried to help it stop and curve back up, but even I personally cannot do the impossible. Inconveniently, there is now a downhill roller coaster smack dab in the middle of my life. Unfortunately, I am unable to fix my life, but that has never stopped me before. Before long, my life will be where it should. …show more content…
My grade is about average right now, but they are worming their way down. Ironically, at the beginning of the year when my personal life was doing fine, my grades were not. Right now my grades are average, but I am not average, so my grades should not be. Honestly, I am a very bright individual, but my grades do not reflect my intellect. My vernacular is superb, my algebraic calculations are on point, and my chemistry skills are a sight to see. But you cannot see, because my talent is failing. I am struggling just to keep my grades average, but I will continue to struggle for the benefit of my future. This happened because of me being lazy and not turning in assignments, which is what my grades actually reflect. However, I have never had a fifty-nine percent or lower, and I plan to sustain that

    The transitioning summer from grade 7 to grade 8 was an exceedingly challenging, demanding and painful one. During this particular summer, my mother was going through a divorce with my step-dad, Michael, and her everyday attitude and mental stability was greatly affected. Every night I spent with her that summer, consisted of tears, personal problems and having to hand-feed her anxiety pills on an almost hourly basis. I can say, without even the slightest doubt, this was the worst summer, if not the worst period of time in my entire life and had a harsh negative impact on my…

    Throughout my existence on this earth, I’ve been told by personal sources that a student should reflect in his or her grades. That’s how it’s been in my household and for some odd reason I believed that. It was the way of life for me and I stood by that reason like it was my religion. That can’t be in my opinion. If a letter or a number depicts on what a good student is, isn’t the system maybe just a little broken. Throughout my school career I’ve met students who didn’t make good grades all the way through semesters. Then they ace every exam and every test in every class. This causes them to make A’s, but does that fact make them good student material? I don’t think so.…

    Going back to my best year! Sophomore year was the year I had to get myself together and stop acting so amateur, it was the year I start acting like an adult. Therefore It was a great year for me. My sophomore year was not like other teenagers, I had many downfalls, but that didn't stop me from accomplishing my goals. Around this time I wanted to try a sport for the first time, so I tried out for the wrestling team, but they didn't work out so well. Sophomore year I didn't make any new friends, cause I don't like making new friends, it's just too much. My day one friends stayed the same, these are the people who have been through hell and back with me. I didn't learn how to drive my tenth grade year, because I was procrastinating. I was skipping school and getting into…

    I can still remember the first couple incidents that happened to me that started to shift my path of life. On May 26, 2011 I graduated from high school. It was a day full of happiness, sadness, and anxiety. I planned on taking time off of school since I have been in it for about 12 years straight. I planned on taking lots of trips with my friends and just experiencing new things in the new world. I also knew that if I did go back right away I wouldn’t succeed to my full potential. I simply wasn’t ready. At my grad party, I got into an argument with my brother, because I was defending my cousin. It soon escalated into a full on brawl between me, my brother, my boyfriend at the time, my father, and some friends. I made my way from outside where everyone was yelling at each other into my room. My father stormed into my roomed, where he proceeded to keep yelling at me telling me how I always screw everything up and I felt so overwhelmed that I just wanted to leave. Every ounce of me tried to escape that mad house but he wouldn’t let me leave until the cops arrived. I packed up a few things and left to stay with my boyfriend. A couple of days later I went and got the…

    For the first two months of my freshman year there wasn't a single piece of furniture on the floor so I couldn't print out papers for school because the printer wasn't set up, I couldn't sleep on my bed but on the mattress itself. The whole process was very irritating and stressful all I could do was hope I didn't fail my first semester and unfortunately I didn't have many friends to help me. When we finally got settled after a year living in Arlington, TX my parents decided to yet again move to a new house because they didn't feel comfortable and neither did my sister and I. During my sophomore year in high school we moved to Dallas, TX a little bit closer to our school. It was annoying to move into another house again We had to pack everything once again and undergo the process of moving from one house to the…

    2nd grade arrived, still mad at my parents for making us move, we (my mom, dad, and two sisters) were living with my aunt and her family. That’s not the healthiest environment for a & year old to grow up in, two older cousins, and two older sisters. I was tortured. I had to listen to every bad word in the book all day long every day for a whole year. I guess that’s okay though because I think I turned out pretty good!…

    Fall 2014 I felt at home and warm when I walked into Harper Woods high school. I spent countless nights trying to help my younger brother, who was 6 then, with his homework then put him to bed.

Life wasn't terrible and it sure wasn't depressing, it was a learning experience. My tenth grade summer I applied to a caddie program at the Country Club of Detroit, in Grosse Pointe…

    During my teenager years I was going through life like as some teenager would go through. Peer pressure was among myself where I was hitting rock bottom. Things wasn’t really looking great at the time. I was hanging with the wrong crowd that almost cost me to drop out during my junior year in high school.
