wow its almost over haha. i'd have to say along the way i learned the most about myself. i feel like i really learned alot about who i am and the type of person i want to be. My biggest thing is that i hate living with regrets. this tic of mine has helped me and deffinatly drove me to do some stupid things haha. but i'd have to say my biggest regret is not doing better in school and getting better grades because i feel it hindered me in my college search. my fondest memorie of highschool was my first varsity wrestling match where in won in double overtime againt some tool from William Floyd. The only advice i'd have to give anyone coming into H.S. is so ballance your friends and your work and do as much as you can. stay involved and dont let yourself live in regret!!!
I've learned that the only way to to learn anything is to challange yourself. I've also learned that you shouldn't just do something because everyone else is...it's better to be your own person even if it means being excluded from somethings. I don't regret anything besides not doing so well on the SAT. My fondest memories were with my best friends just hanging out being able to talk about anything with each other. I also enjoyed taking part in many clubs, events, and dinners that went on thoughout school. One of my favorite parts of school was being on a sport and being able to become close with my team. We did a lot of fun events and it was like having a seond family.. that's going to be one thing I miss the most about high school...I want the underclassment to know that it doesn't pay to slack off in school.. have fun, but not so much that it interferes with your schoolwork... Also, practice healthy lifestyles and join as many clubs and sports teams as you can bcause it's quite the experience and keep you busy... Also, although the SATS are a huge waste of time and horrible tests, study for them because they help you get into good colleges.
Over the past 4 years, I have learned that if you want something, go get it. If something is that important to you, work hard for it and don't stop. You'll feel awesome in the end. I think I can safely say that I don't have any regrets. There are things that I am not proud of, but I'm glad they have happened because it has shaped me into the person I am. My fondest memory has probably been the day I realized that I have only a short time left at home and now its time to grow up and start your real life. My advice for underclassmen: Enjoy yourselfs, because 4 years goes way to damn fast.
Now that we're nearing the end of high school I can see that along the way I did learn a lot. Mostly about what's important and what isn't, what my values are, and basically who I am and who I want to be. Also, I learned that if you work hard and put effort into something, you will succeed and be rewarded in some way, even if it's just from feeling accomplished and proud of yourself for doing what you had to do. I don't have many regrets because I see all my mistakes as something to learn from. I like living that way because a lot of times it drives me to always work hard and do my best. I'd have to say that some of my best memories in high school are just little things like meeting new people and hanging out with my friends. Also, doing gymnastics was probably my best experience of high school because I met some of my best friends and had such an awesome time with them. I want the underclassmen to know that high school will be a challenge, but the important thing is to always try your hardest, make the most out of your life, and always be open to new people and experiences.
Throughout this class I've learned a lesson I am definitely going to bring with me to college, and hopefully the rest of my life. From the numerous assignments given in this class I have learned to not leave things until the last day before they are due. And especially not until the morning of which they are due. Paul Falliah once taught me this is just setting yourself up for Failure, and he was right. Every assignment in this course that I had written a real outline for and done at least three days prior to it's due date I received an A on. I received two A's the entire semester. Even though this is my senior year, I completely regret handing in assignments that were not my best work because I rushed them the night before. There were even some assignments I was forced to hand in late because they were not even coherent by the day they were due. I am glad I realized my mistake, and hopefully Ms. Sundberg will one day forgive me. With the negativity aside I do have many fond memories from WFC. The day of Ms. Sundberg's epic absence which lead most of us to unite in a common Quake 3 server and shoot virtual rocket launchers at each other the entire period was a good time. Along with my everyday bathroom adventures which I once actually found myself playing badminton in gym against the gym coaches were always exciting. To my fellow underclassmen, have amfap(as much fun as possible) during your senior year, but don't take it too lightly, there is still time for learning and working hard especially in Writing Fo' College.
