In junior year I felt like more of an adult, just because I had my own ride to get to school with, there was prom to look forward to and high school was coming to an end. I remember school wasn’t so rough for me in the past years but when I started the year I didn’t want to pay much attention to the teachers but to my friends instead. I got involved with this one guy who had the same interests and similarities as I did and soon after we got so attached to one another to where we always wanted to be with each other. I did go to every class and listen but I didn’t do the home work or assignments that were due because I was focused more on having a boyfriend. I enjoyed having someone liking me and wanting to spend time with me other than my own family.

I was able to be successful in my classes and continue to be in my relationship. Eventually at the end of my junior year I finished with A’s and B’s throughout the year because I always went Mrs. Pugh whenever I struggled in one of my subjects. I learned that it’s possible to juggle having someone special in your life and be determined while taking classes.

Now that I’m a sophomore in college, I still am learning how to get by with getting my assignments done and turned in on time, working out, and having my own time. I am very grateful for the opportunities that my education has and will lead me to. With each and every class that I’m taking I want to be able to take the information and connect it with my life right now.
