Starting high school was a terrifying idea to me. Different teachers‚ class times‚ lockers‚ drama! I remember that I always looked up to my older sister while she was in high school. She had tons of friends‚ played sports‚ participated in student government‚ and went out for the school play. I wanted to be just like her when I started high school. In middle school‚ I lined myself up for this‚ I played soccer in the fall and basketball in the winter. I helped out in the school plays‚ and I joined

The first time I was ever daunted sitting at a drum kit‚ was at my first gig with my high school jazz ensemble during my freshman year. It was the night of the Presidents Circle Dinner‚ an event dedicated to the individuals who donated a substantial amount of money to my school. All the people I had to impress. Not only was I new to playing in front of a crowd but I was also new to playing jazz itself. During the performance of C Jam Blues‚ the band director pointed at me‚ hinting that I‚ the second

I have 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

Shelter Madziva Osborne High School Growing up my mom has always encouraged my siblings and I to continue our education to as far as college. My mother never really got the chance to attend college because her family could not afford to put all their kids in school. She had seven siblings and an extra bill for school was not something her parents were able to afford. I consider myself really lucky to be alive in a time where there are so many opportunities to be able to afford college. If it were

didn’t need another lecture by my parents if I get caught. The spray can ran out just as I finished my work. This wasn’t one of my best crimes but I sure was satisfied by it. I stood in awe at my high school’s sign. The sign used to say Riverdale High School but thanks to me Riverdale was replaced with the words rotten hell. The red and blue lights almost blinded me as Officer Valdez parked behind me. I was too familiar with the old man. I’m still amazed on how he’s looked the same since

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

My brother Jake. 16‚ now a sophomore. He helped me more than anything to overcome my fears of going to high school. When I was going to 8th grade I was worried about going to high school and looking for high school. Like what if they didn’t accept me? I was looking for the perfect high school to go to. I was looking for days‚ and I was looking for all the traits that would fit me. My brother saw me one day and said” hey you doing all right?” I wasn’t really in the mood to talk so I just ignored him

For the last 4 years of high school I have been my school’s mascot. It has shaped me in many different ways. Our mascot is Seymour Mule and his partner Annie Mule. We are Woodrow Wilson Senior High "Home of the Mighty Mules." Being a school mascot isn’t something you exactly plan to do during your high school years. But somehow I managed to do it and love it more than anything. I didn’t exactly choose to be our mascot‚ it happened due to luck. One day during my freshman year we had a practice fire
