ENGL 1101 24 September 2012 Graduation Day Graduation is one of the few times where others not only share in your excitement, but can aso be even more overwhelmed for your "big day”. Graduation is a ceremony used to celebrate the moving forward after working hard in one arena in preparation for your future. It is the only time I can think of where a student may quench the thirst of closure in one endeavor and the start of another all in the same breathe. Although we view graduation as a celebration, for me it seemed like a big fat eviction notice since I would no longer be living with my parents. You see for four years teachers, parents, even previous graduates spread the hype that on the day of graduation you will have the time of your life.
Tryouts began after school on a beautiful Monday afternoon. Instantly, I realized the skill of this team was way above what I had been accustomed to. For the first time, I began to feel unsure of my talent. The list was posted every morning following try outs. Every day I woke up and rushed to school with the anticipation that my name would not be there.
My eleventh grade year was also a disaster because of the struggle of passing my biology state test and I was really distracted and just wanted to go back to the alternative school but my mom and the principle would not send me back. My senior year I transferred to Christ Missionary and Industrial high school (college) the year flew by but I really enjoyed myself there. Now I am still here at CM&I , I supposed to be a summer graduate if everything goes as planned. Once I finish high school I plan on signing up for the air
The class of 2018 is amazing, and we need to show the upperclassmen what we are made of. I would also like to get our class more involved in the fund raising process, because how much money we earn determines how amazing our junior prom will be. We can be the start of something extraordinary, and with the help of some leaders, we will blow away the seniors and the sophomore class will be who everyone looks up to. I want to be Sophomore Class President to help make your experience at Trenton Catholic Academy, completely unforgettable. Everyone always says “High School is the best years of your life.” And to me that sounds like a pretty big statement to live up to.
To many of us, high school could be the best times of our lives and to others it can be the worst. Our high school years is when we are maturing, they can be troublesome, stressful and maybe even something more blissful. Like in life, I also want to accomplish goals in high school. My major goal for high school is to receive a 3.5 or higher GPA each year graduate of course, I would like to be a good student, and lastly I’d like to have good friends. Throughout my years of high school I will change my mind a million times, make a billion mistakes, and learn a gazillion things but there will always be goals I want to accomplish.
The Journey through Law Enforcement Academy graduation day is the most blissful day in many recruits’ lives. After years of studying incipient recruits will conclusively, be starting their life dream, with commitment and dedication, to their incipient vocations as a law enforcement officer. Incipient officers seem to lose their pre academy amities from the commencement. Old friends will just drift away as a vocation in law enforcement takes their place. At the cessation of the 1st year, a new officer will often feel distanced from people they knew before the academy, since for the past year they fixated on new relationships with other officers.
She was my first best friend; I was so upset when she had to move. I joined a soccer team for the first time and realized it would be what I stuck with for years and then join the school team in high school. In middle school when a close friend, Daniel Dixon, passed away from a fatal car accident I thought I would never be the same. When I got put into the accelerated classes which would change my life forever because it would be put on my transcript and would allow me the chance to get into the very best schools in the state; when this happened Brandy Hamiter and Savannah Martoi became my best friends. Then in High School, a big group of people spent their whole week trying to beat the seniors at most school spirit.
Older people always tell me they would re-do there high school years over again, but not me. Graduation day had to be the best day of my life, finally my senior year was over. I could finally get away from the horrible memories I had and start over. I couldn’t believe I made it through Brennan High School. A lot of people always think Brennan High School is for bad kids, kids that get kicked out of school that might be true for a few but most of us were there for emotional problems.
On June 16th, my hands were shaking, my palms were sweaty and I was frantically reviewing notes. Why? It was the day of my physics finals, everything we learned since the beginning of the year comes down to this. We were al dreading that day and by that point, all I wanted is to be done with it. After 3 long periods, I made it out alive.
A couple of the things I noticed were the differences in the scheduling and rules and attitudes, responsibility on my part, and the work load. In high school, we were required to be at school by a certain time of the morning and once you arrived you were there for the day having seven or eight classes with a thirty minute lunch break. In college you have more freedom with your class schedule. Some students may have a class at eight in the morning and then not have another one until two that afternoon. Others may only have class two or three days a week, depending on how they arrange their schedule.
