Course Improvements and Suggestions

I think English 12 was my favorite English class that I’ve taken in high school. The choices of novel we had to read was by far the best. The Great Gatsby was my favorite book that I’ve ever done as a novel or project. The projects we have done in this class were beneficial to me, and i have learned some things that I will take with me, after graduation. This course is laid out very nice. The instructions for every paper or project are clearly defined the day we are introduced to it. In conclusion,  I wouldn’t change anything about English 12.

Speak Truth to Power

My STTP defender was named Librada Paz. She was originally from Mexico, but left with her sister to hope farm to farm in America trying to make a living. She is known for advocacy of farm workers. She knows the struggles of being limited to jobs in America, and the harsh conditions she had to go through to have a good life, in the end. This project taught me mostly that other people have to work a lot harder to have half the life that I’m living. I don’t realize how good I have it. I don’t have to fight for anything, my freedom, peace, nothing. My defender fights for the rights of newcomers, of America, and their right to a clean and safe workplace. I also did not realize the amount of people that work in such harsh conditions, and make way under the legal minimum wage. This was a successful project for Jacob Thering and I. This was took a special interest to Jacob also, because of his knowledge and experience working on farms. The research we did was beneficial in the end; to know t...

My Goals

Setting goals and accomplishing them makes you feel like you’re actually making progress. In the beginning in the year my month goal was to complete my college applications and send them in. After some thinking I chose my top six colleges and I applied to all of them. A couple months later, I received an acceptance letter from each college. I was super happy that even my reach college, SUNY Geneseo, had accepted me because I had been worrying if I had chose the right colleges. My end of the year goal was to decide where I am attending college, this was probably the hardest decision I’ve had to make in my life. I finally chose the hardest, and toughest college on my list, Geneseo. My long term goal was to successfully complete my college semesters with a high achieving GPA. I think if I can successfully adjust to the college life during my summer program I will be set for my first semester and be able to apply for the school of education right away! I really plan on crushing this goal...

Reflection: Grades 9-12

High school was such a fast time in my life. I felt like everything went by so fast. It doesn't seem possible that I graduate in two weeks, it's such a sad, happy, exciting, nerve racking, and stressful feeling. Some of my favorite part of school were the Friday football games, the dances, playing soccer my freshman and sophomore year, and Prom. I regret continuing to play sports in high school. I chose work over sports because I wanted a car and everything else I own now. I wish I would've just found a way to work and play sports at the same time. I wish that freshman year I would've listened to Carll and stuck with track, and sophomore year, I would've just kept playing soccer. Now being a senior and looking back, I definitely think freshman year was my favorite year. Freshman year I made so many friends in the older classes, mostly with the seniors. As a freshman, you had so many memories to make ahead of you, and you had no idea. My favorite teachers, I'll m...
