It’s almost the end of my senior year and I can’t stop wondering how fast time flew, because I can recall the exact moment I started Kindergarten at Lincoln Elementary. To think I am graduating in a few months is mind blowing, I still feel like I still have tons of time before the day comes. Although I am having these feelings, I know June 10th is coming so I need to prepare myself for the real world.
My dreams have always been to go to a four- year university after high school, so once the application process for colleges opened up, I got right on it. It’s funny how ones life can change in a few months because fast- forward a few months and I have completed so many life- altering events; I have completed my FAFSA and I am currently waiting on college decisions. For all of those schools, I have decided to major in Biology or a Biology- related major, which was a bit frightening because I know how impacted that major is in a lot of schools, which could be the reason I can be denied from a school. Although I am still worried, I have thankfully been accepted to six schools: UC Davis, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, CSU San Francisco, CSU Long Beach, and CSU Sacramento. I have yet to be denied, however, I am still waiting on three schools (UC Berkeley, University of San Francisco, and CSU Northridge), so you never know what the outcome of those schools are.
As of my high school career, I am still in the process of needing to complete health, AP Governement, and AP English Literature in order to graduate. I know it may come as a shock that a senior still needs to take health, but there is a long story to explain why, too long and complicated for this journal, but long story short, I still need health was because of issues concerning my transfer from Strathmore High School to Lindsay High school near the end of my sophomore year. I am taking an online course to finish that up, however, with my hectic schedule, it is really difficult to find or make time to finish it, but I know I will get it done.
Even though my senior year is coming to an end, there are still a lot of experiences I need to do before it comes to an end, (i.e.: Senior Sunrise, Grad Night, club trips, college acceptances, Prom(?), etc.). Once June 10th comes around and I am standing in front of a crowd of proud parents, siblings, friends, and teachers, I will happly look back at my school career, and think of all the things I had the privelige to experience throughout all those years. I know I will miss every single thing, (good or bad) that has happened to me, but I also know that all those experiences have, in some way, helped shape what my furture holds.
