GOODBYE+MY+FRESHMAN+YEAR

GOODBYE MY FRESHMAN YEAR!!

the beginning of freshman year was scary, with a new school, a new environment, having come from a small charter school, and a large campus. being at the bottom of the food chain once again is always a nerve wracking experience, but both luckily, and unfortunately, i had a summer school course to prepare me both academically and socially for the jump from childhood that is high school. i admit, i may have been confident in my writing, as my junior high school teachers were, but jumping straight into an honors class? bad choice. first semester i had some pretty... undesirable grades due to said circumstances, causing me to switch to college prep English, raising my grades overall substantially. the first few months were scary, and hard, but i am so grateful to be finishing strong.
