My metamorphosis came about when I entered high school. My English teacher assigned a project in which we began mapping out our high school experiences so that they attract the attention of our desired colleges. After class‚ I opened up to her about how I did not have any direction in life. I had no clue what I wished to be or even why I was going to school. To my surprise‚ she didn’t ridicule me. She simply asked me to recall a time that inspired me when I was a child. It could be anything from

The bus will be coming soon‚” my sister yells all the while roaming around aimlessly around our room. I respond with a grunt and

Looking back to middle school I remember the fear I had for someday having to go to high school. My teachers always told me how different and harder it would be when I went.
