We are now six weeks into senior year and everything seems to be balanced out properly. So far everything is going good in all my courses. Although, I did get a minor setback on my path when I wanted to stop taking a class. The class I wanted to get taken out of was psychology because it was getting a bit tough for me. As I thought it over to myself I thought I would try and get out because that class doesn’t relate to what I wish to major in. I had a meeting with my counselor and I explained to her that I changed my mind about going into the medical field after having my job shadow on a teacher. We discussed the situation and she explained to me that even if I wasn’t going to major in medical or physical it would still be a good idea to remain in the class. I would have more opportunities when a college sees I have went beyond and have taken the classes they recommended.
As I continue to stay in that class it’s a bit tough on me but I try to keep my mind focused. over a little period of time, the class got more and more interesting. i could honestly say i am debating on going into psychology in college. Before the semester ends I will need to make sure I am going strong in all my classes, have my senior project done and mke sure i stay on top of all the college application dealines. So far as the time is ticking I have enjoyed going to every football game and having a closer relationship with my teachers. Focusing more on school, California State University applications have already been started. It is such a good but challenging feeling when almost having to submit them. It’s head pounding trying to decide which college should be attended and taking a large step in choosing your future. I am so glad to have teachers who give me their advice on which school to attend and constantly being reminded to reach for my goals.
Time is going by faster than I expected it to. It is almost time to submit applications and begin the drive. All conversations lately have been regarding graduations, universities, and majors. This all goes back to coming in as a freshman wondering what school I wish to go to and what I want to do in life. And now four years later I am actually filling out college applications deciding on my future which all feels so unreal. A few more months are written on the board and part of me will leave but part of me will stay. My mind wonders and my heart melts to my stomach thinking about what college I will get accepted into. I am ready and looking forward to what the rest of the year has for me. I know part of it will be challenges but the majority will be success building up into my future.
