The high school daze

I've decided that high school is where you leave on world and enter the next.  It is not the same as any other place you've ever been.  You see all types of people.  But you have to open you mind to see them as individuals, not as the stereo types everyone else makes them out to be.  You can't judge people off their outward appearance. I know the old saying, "Don't judge a book by it's cover".  It's so true.

Cross Country: as far as I can go

Two words.  Cross country.  It started out for me as an idea to participate so I could put it as a sport on my college application.  I'm rethinking my idea.  Today was my second day.  I told my mom yesterday that that was the most I had ever run in my life.  They had us run a mile as a warm up.  And I had a hard time recovering from even that. But I was told that after a week, it get's better.  So, I'm going out on faith.   I'm going to go as far as I can go.

My day with the upper classmen

Well, I've decided that the upper class men really aren't that scary.  Today, was the day that they joined us. And ( to my amazement, I wasn't scared of them!), they were super helpful.  So, in conclusion, I really liked having them there.  School, is not what I thought it would be...........it's even better!  My relationships with my friends have gotten so much better than I could of hoped for.  My classes are going to challenge me and help me succeed in this world.  High School, here I come!

First Day of High School

So, as I said in the last post, I started high school today!  I have to say, things were much better than I thought they would be.  I thought it would be intimidating and scary, and I was fearful of it.  But, today was an only freshman day, and I really enjoyed it.  Now, I am some what ready to face tomorrow and live through high school.  Because this is going to be the most amazing 4 years of my life.

Starting High School

So, because I am following the law, I am starting high school tomorrow.  I have said that I am so afraid of high school.  It was always the unattainable status for me.  I grew up around high schoolers and I loved them, but it always seemed to me that I would never be there.  I think that's what's the hardest for me, when I think about going to high school.  But because giving up is not my thing, I'm going, and I'm determined for this to be an amazing experience.  All honors courses and some cross country on the side?  This is gonna be good.
