The tension began to overlay the dark hall as I stood on the stage. Spotlights bored into my composure‚ illuminating my anxiety to the shadowy faces in the crowd. My partners and I were eagerly waiting for the results: the ultimate critique of our work. For the past six months‚ we had been feverishly perfecting our business financial plan for the FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) state conference. Through countless hours and late nights‚ we finally arrived on the daunting stage as a finalist

My bag swings on my shoulder as I run towards the school doors‚ attempting not to be noticed. Pretending not to care as people fall silent while I run past‚ my auburn hair flowing in the wind behind me. “Hey!” “Jasmine!” “What went down last night?” “I heard that the police came to your house.” I listen to the miscellaneous shouts of the crowd as my heartbeat slows like a bass drum in a ballad. Someone takes hold of my hand and pulls me to face them. It’s Maya‚ quite literally

thing I’ve ever done in my life thus far was taking Spanish in my first two years of high school. Throughout my whole scholastic career‚ I never really had to try. I came to class‚ did the work‚ and then aced the tests. This history of nonexistent challenge was interrupted by my enrollment into foreign language. For some reason the ideas taught within the class never really resonated with me and for the first time ever I was no longer an “A student.” This took a huge hit to my pride but it made me want

My high school English Class experience I was born in Beijing where it is difficult for me to get in touch with English. At that time‚ It is impossible for me to meet foreign people on Beijing. I didn’t know English until I was ten years old‚ but I was not interested in it. Therefore‚ my grades on English were not good all this time. However‚ after graduating from junior high school‚ I decided to study abroad on America so that I must be absorbed in studying English. Hence‚ I started to expect the

sometimes my friends because they might be confusing. One of my goals is to not wait until the last minute to do all my homework because sometimes there are a lot and I won’t be able to finish it in time unless I stay up extremely late. In order to avoid doing that‚ I will always ask my siblings or parents to keep reminding me to do my homework until it’s no longer a habit.

Of course‚ I was Gabriella because I best fit the physical description in our small class

always been the student to struggle with grades in school. I was never one who made straight A’s. I always seemed to make a few A’s mainly C’s. Junior High was a tough time for me‚ as well as high school. Almost every course I took in junior high and high school I struggled in. I suffered more in high school than I did in junior high. I seemed to always do terribly in the same three class; geometry‚ biology‚ and history. Looking at my final report card my sophomore year and seeing that I made not just

Ever since my first day of school‚ my parents have observed that I work most effectively within an environment that contains an extensive ethical and organizational framework well as many opportunities to stand out and lead if possible.

Changing in High school is kind of tuff; especially when you are going to the best High school in the city. I had to mature and get on my “A game”‚ because there are other people trying to beat me. From football to scholar ships‚ I had to change really fast if I wanted to be on top. I had to bring my “A game” to football‚ because other kids‚ like me‚ wanted to take my spot as a receiver. I changed as the coach wanted us to change. I changed from staying quiet to speaking up to the coach. I had to
