In retrospect‚ I did not think I was prepared for that day‚ but I had it in me to cross the stage on that football field to receive my high school diploma. Although‚ my legs were shaking‚ hands clammy from anxiety‚ heart beating‚ and minding racing as I side-eyed all of the unfamiliar faces glaring at me from the stadium seats‚ I pushed forward to accept what I had worked my tail

Now that i have finished the 1st quarter of my 8th grade year‚ I can say i really enjoy it. It may be different but it’s really enjoyable.

In elementary school‚ I decided that I was going to be at the top of my class each year‚ meaning I would have to do each assignment with diligence and precision. At the end of fifth grade‚ I gave a full discourse to my parents as to why moving to a “better” town didn’t mean I would get a better education‚ and thankfully‚ we never did. In middle school‚ I also decide that I wouldn’t go to a private high school because it didn’t make sense to struggle to financially

I didn’t worry too much about the new school year. I had sports to take my mind off of what school was going to be like. Luckily I got into classes with all of my friends and my teachers are great. I thought that making friends was going to be hard but I play sports so people already knew me. I was also worried about being at a new school‚ but even though the school looks huge it’s pretty easy to get around. Even though I had many worries about the new school they have all gone away.

For me‚ I experienced the most eye-opening failure in my freshman and sophomore year of high school. It was hard for me to transition through freshman year with more classes and more classrooms to go to. Also with more older and intimidating students.

doors on my first day of elementary school was a very nerve wracking day. I was starting at a brand new school and didn’t know anybody. I was never a super talkative child but I usually had my sister nearby to help me out. I knew I wasn’t going to have her by my side any longer and that made me apprehensive about how I would make friends.
