A new life Entering a new school is always difficult, because it is a new stage in our lives.During these four years I have learned many things in class and in high school in general. I have had good and bad experiences. Some were unforgettable.My first year at Lindsay High was very difficult for me, because I did not know any English. Only two of my teachers spoke Spanish, so I did not communicate with most of my teachers. However, I think it was good that most of my teachers did not speak Spanish, because it made me try harder to meet my goals. By the end of my freshmen year, I had good grades.When I think about my first days at Lindsay High School and how hard it was, I feel happy. Even though I do not yet speak perfect English, I can express myself and understand what others say. I am proud of what I have accomplished.I now that when I graduated from Lindsay High School, it will be then end of a stage in my life, but it will also be the beginning of another stage. I'm nervous about it, but at the same time, I'm excited. I have studied something that I would like to do in the future and that will give me the opportunity to have a good future so that I can achieve my dreams.I'm ready for what awaits me in my future because I had good teachers and who have guided and supported me during these years at Lindsay High School. In the future, I hope that I meet people as wonderful as the people I have found here.
The Beginning of my Last Year
At the beginning of my senior year in high school, I can not deny that I was nervous and scared but it was not the same feeling as in my freshman year. This year is different since this is the last year that I will see many of my colleagues, we will start preparing for graduation, and finish fulfilling all the requirements. I feel calm because I feel that there will be nothing that prevents me from fulfilling my dreams and goals. As the last year just started I'm at the pace I need to be, I'm not behind on anything and I do not have to finish any class from last year, I'm currently working on finishing my journals for my major project. The elections I received this year were AP Spanish, ELD, Algebra 2, Accounting and CNA I think these classes will help me a lot for college because they are extra classes that we do not need to graduate. All my classes this year I like and I feel very comfortable with the teachers and colleagues who touched me. My favorite class is accounting because I have discovered that it is something that really passionate me to do, I thought it would be more difficult but really in the short time that we have I realized that it is not doing and that you just have to learn the procedures and it is easier . I think that taking this class is going to help me a lot in school since I am starting to familiarize myself with the career that I have chosen. This year's schedules were really different from last year or the years before I think this program is better. Not only the schedules have been different but in the short time we have classes I had more task than in previous years, I think this year will be more difficult but maybe that is good for us to work hard and to finish All on time and have no problem when you do the graduation. The class that I think is going to be more difficult is economy because we have a lot of work, one of my favorite classes is accounting because it is something that I really like to do and entertains me. Another class that I like a lot is Spanish because I like the readings that I read and as it is my first language is easy to understand. I feel that the time is passing fast and that more and more is the time to leave this school and my composers, I am excited to start a new stage in my life but also I feel a little scared.
Near the End
This is my last year of High School and I am nervous about the things that are going to happen in my life when I finish this important stage of my life. These four years have been difficult because I still do not speak English well. In these years in High School I have lived important experiences that I matured and to think different, at the beginning it was difficult because it was a drastic change in my life. I lived with my parents in a place even smaller than this where all the people know each other and you know who you can trust, I had my friends and family. I have been visiting my family in Mexico every year since I came to live here and although I still miss them and I love to live here because here I have more opportunities to study. At this moment I am working hard to pass all my classes. The classes that are costing me a lot of work to spend is economy, this has been the class that I work hardest because I have had to stay after school to finish jobs that I can not finish in class. I am working hard and I hope to finish this class in time so that it does not affect me for my graduation.I am excited about graduating from high school and one of the requirements is to do my senior project. I have done some things to complete it as my life map, my job shade and talk about me but I still need some things. I think if I'm going to finish everything I'm need on time and I'm working on it.When I made my job shade in a beauty salon this was a great time for me to solve all my doubts about cosmetology. The person who helped me was a very kind woman who told me about her career and how she managed to have so many clients and people to trust her. That was an unforgettable day for me.In my future I plan to enter college to study accounting, I decided to study that and not cosmetology because I believe that in this career there are more opportunities to work. When I did my job shadow I realized that although I like the cosmetology I do not see myself in my future in a beauty salon. Apply for Porterville College because I think that it is better for me to enter for two years to college to improve my level of English.
The End of a Stage
I'm excited because the winter break are approaching, and my plans are to go to Mexico to visit my family, as I've done every year since I moved here. Something that I am very excited about traveling to Mexico is that I will be with my whole family and I will see my friends that I have not seen for a year. I'm very excited to spend the good night parties, Christmas, New Year and all family parties with my family. Mexican food is another thing that I miss very much because although here there are also many places where they sell; I miss stress the food I ate when I was a child and the places I used to go with my family. I also like sweets, ice cream and all the Mexican dishes. every time when I go to Mexico I try to eat of all mexican food and I spend time with my family.This year is different from the others because they are the last break that I will have during my time in the high school. I'm worried because I do not want to be behind pace in my classes and that it will a motive to have problems to graduate. At this moment I am well in all my classes although there are somes who are giving me more work like Economy and CNA. I think that although I am fighting more with these classes I will finish them in time and they will not be a problem for my graduation. I like that 2017 arrives because every time is closer the time of the graduation, the time to start a new stage and meet new people. I know that the experiences I have lived and I will live in my high school stage are moments that I will not forget because they have helped me to grow more as a person.I am working in my senior project and i am working too in met all the requirements to graduate. I am working in my community hours to finish on time. My plans were to go to SCICON but I will not be able to do it because for the next time they go I'm going to be in Mexico so I'm going to look for another place to do them. I'm starting to do my powerpoint for my exit interview, I'm going to do it in Spanish and English because it's easier for me to talk about my life in Spanish. When I finish high school, I'm going to continue studying, so I filled the application to enter PC. I choose this school because it's close and offers the career that I want. I do not want to have problems to graduate so I will work hard to finish everything I need and be able to enter the school that I want.
