Estoy muy nerviosa por lo que está por venir. Solo falta poco tiempo para que me gradué con mi clase del 2016. Como el tiempo se está pasando muy rápido, solo puedo pensar que el día de graduación está por llegar. Cada vez que me lo imagino no lo puedo creer. Me pongo a recordar de mi tiempo en la escuela, pero no solamente del tiempo en la secundaria, sino tambien el tiempo que estuve en las otras escuelas cuando era mas chica. No se me mete por la cabeza que mi último ya está por terminar pero se que solo hay cosas mejores por venir. Ahora va a ser tiempo de escoger a qué escuela me gustaría asistir. Es algo dificil para mi porque hay mucho por pensar. No solo es de escoger una escuela pero pensar lo que la escuela me puede ofrecer para mi. También necesito pensar de lo que tengo planeado estudiar y el ambiente de la escuela. No solo eso pero, necesito pensar si estoy verdaderamente segura y lista para moverme a otro lugar para seguir estudiando, porque también hay escuelas más cercanas de mi. Todo esto es algo de mucho tiempo de pensar y también porque espero depender de la ayuda y apoyo de mis padres y de mis hermanas. Pero volviendo para atrás, todavía me falta por terminar unos trabajos para terminar el año. Me gustaría terminar un poco temprano para tener un poco de aire para respirar porque este año es el año donde hay más que hacer y más gastos que cubrir. Para hacer esto a mi me gusta mantenerme organizada con una lista de coasa para terminar. Me gusta saber que es lo que necesito terminar para acabar con el año. Aunque todavía no he terminado la secundaria yo se que siempre he querido continuar mi educación. Lo que me hace estar más emocionada es que por fin voy a empezar a estudiar en una carrera de mi interes. Donde voy a poder lograr ayudar a otra gente que es algo que me hace sentir bien. No solo eso, pero a mi me encanta conocer a más gente y hacer nuevas amistades. También me emociona las nuevas experiencias que están por venir. Sea lo que sea estoy emocionada pero a la misma vez nerviosa por lo que está por venir. Lo que sí puedo decir es que mi tiempo al estar en la secundaria fue muy divertido. Siempre voy a recordar mis tiempos en la escuela. Voy a mirar hacia atrás y recordar cuando estudie ahi, y tambien cuando jugaba en la cancha de fútbol con mis compañeras de equipo. No solo eso pero tambien voy a recordar a mis amigos y las memorias que hicimos en la escuela, porque nosotros siempre tratabamos de hacer el tiempo en la escuela más divertido y más chistoso. Ahora que recuerdo voy a extrañar la escuela un poco porque es tiempo de salir a la vida real y empezar un nuevo capítulo en mi vida.
Es la semana de regreso después de las vacaciones de Navidad. Me pregunto porque el tiempo se pasó muy rápido. Me gustaría que las vacaciones duraran mas. Estoy triste porque esto significa que ahora no me voy a poder levantar tarde y es tiempo de regresar a la escuela. Aunque mis vacaciones fueron cortas, me encanto pasar el tiempo con mi familia. Además de estar con mi familia me gusto descansar un tiempo de la escuela y también de mi trabajo. No solo eso pero me gusto la comida que teníamos durante las fiestas navideñas. Solo recordandome se me antojan unos tamales y un champurrado para este tiempo frío. El dia de noche buena recuerdo ayudarle a mi mama para preparar la comida. Hicimos pozole y tamales para la Navidad. Me gusto cuando se llegó el tiempo de abrir los regalos porque aunque ya no este tan chica me gustan las sorpresa. Unos regalos que recibe fueron una computadora, ropa, perfumes y dinero. Ademas de celebrar la navidad tambien celebre mi cumpleanos con una fiesta donde asistieron mis amigos y amigas. El dia de mi cumpleanos me la pase con mi familia que fue muy especial para mi. Días después llegó el año nuevo. Es raro pensar que ahora estamos en un nuevo ano. Es el año en que me voy a graduar de la secundaria para continuar mis estudios en el colegio. Es el tiempo en que muchas cosas van a cambiar. He aplicado a diferentes colegios como la universidad de Sacramento y la de Santa Cruz. Ahorita todavía no he escuchado sobre ser aceptada a los colegio que aplique pero no estoy tan preocupada. No puedo creer que el primer semestre está dias por terminar. Es el tiempo en que me siento que necesito qué tengo que echarle muchas ganas para terminar mis trabajos a tiempo antes de que se termine el semestre. Estoy emocionada pero a la vez también estoy nerviosa para lo que está en venir. Como voy a presentar mi proyecto de salida temprano, estoy preparando para tener todo listo. Necesito practicar para sentiré menos nerviosa. Como voy a presentar en espanol para obtener el título de bilingüe, necesito presentar en espanol. Me siento bien porque crecí hablando el idioma pero también es diferente cuando vas a presentar a un grupo de personas como en escenario. Ahora que lo pienso no puedo esperar a terminar la secundaria y graduar la escuela para empezar mi carrera. Yo se que mi experiencia en el colegio será diferente de mi experiencia en la secundaria y por eso me siento emocionada. Quiero conocer cosas nuevas y aprender mas de lo que ya se. Aunque no voy a olvidar mi tiempo en la escuela secundaria estoy lista de empezar un nuevo capítulo en mi vida donde las cosas serán un poco diferente pero ojala una mejor experiencia para mi. Por ahorita me voy a enfocar en terminar mis trabajos y tareas del primer semestre para estar en buen camino para graduar.
Many has changed since my last journal entry, I have been in school for about four months now. I have had lots of homework from classes, it has been somewhat stressful but I am trying to adapt myself to completing homework and using my time wisely. I have been working hard this year because my senior year has came with a lot of more work and harder classes. Not to mention that I still have to work on my senior project. I am trying to make sure that I finish my journals on time and update my website so that I can have it ready for others to see. Before the semester ends I need to make sure to pass all of my classes because I am looking forward to graduate with my all classmates. I want to try and graduate with honors so I am also making sure that I am on pace for my classes so that I am able to pass them for the semester. I also began to apply for colleges and scholarship to help pay for college. I applied to four different CSU’s and am also planning to apply to UC’s and community college as a backup plan for myself. Thinking about it makes me nervous and scared because college is right around the corner and will be a big change in my life, where I will become working towards my future career and prepare to become independent. I have been preparing for college because I have taken school more serious and set deadlines and goals for myself. I have also been managing work after school where I work with elementary students to help aid in any homework troubles and to better their academic development. This has gave me an insight on how my life will become in a couple of months although it may be even harder. Besides school work, I have really enjoyed my senior year I have made more memories with my friends. I have attended football games, gone on fields trips and met new people since my last entry. I even went to visit a University between that time, and took a trip to scicon and reminisced of the time when I was younger and went with my classmates. Thinking about it makes me really miss being young naive while in elementary. The time when I had no worries besides getting in trouble by teachers, now I have to worry about turning in essays, managing work and making sure I apply to college, scholarships and financial aid. Since after graduation I plan to go on to college, I have to make sure that I am aware of all the different deadlines there are because in order to go to college I first have to apply and the application comes with a process. I have completed the California State Universities and am currently working on applying for EOP in the process. After I will do the same for the UC’s which come along with a personal statement and a different essay to add on. Throughout the whole process I have had major support from my sisters because they help me in anything that I need especially questions about college since they’ve been through the process and for that I am thankful. In my next entry I’ll be done applying for college and hopefully a weight off my shoulders.
So far my senior year has been good, but there is not much to say yet since this is only the second week of school. The first day of school went by smooth and I finally got to see some of my friends again since I didn’t see many all summer. The first week of school felt long since we have to show up to every class including advisory, not to mention we now get out of school fifteen minutes later, so the day seems longer but I am hoping to adjust to this new schedule and the whole idea of school work and having homework daily. This year I plan to be able to stay on pace and complete all assignments and be able to turn them in on time. I don’t want to fall behind this school year since it is my last year here at Lindsay High School and like everyone else I am planning to graduate and go on to college next fall. I hope that senior year is a great year and one where I will enjoy what time is left of high school because I will soon be moving on to the next chapter of my life and continuing to work towards reaching my goals. Currently I am working on my senior project but I have only done one journal and some clubs and activities, however I will be updating my website throughout the school year. This school year I plan to be involved in with some school activities as well as clubs and play a sport. I am thinking of playing a new sport this year since I have already played soccer for two years. I will be joining FBLA again and Spanish Honor Society this school year. If things work out for me as I plan, I will maybe be working part time this school year if time allows and if school work doesn’t get hectic. I want to start saving a bit of money for college and be able to have some type of income for my personal self. In order to work towards my goals this year for my future I am looking forward to working very hard in order to go on towards college next year and pursuing my career. Some careers that interest me are business and accounting. Although I am still not sure what school I want to go on to for college I am hoping that by the end of this year I will have figured out what it is that I want exactly in order to become prepared for what is next. I will soon be applying to colleges and don’t know if I am more excited or scared. I will also be applying for scholarships for school because I know that college is not free and I am hoping to win some or at least one scholarship that will help pay for school. By the end of my senior year I will have hoped to been set and prepared for graduation and been accepted by the college of my choosing and most importantly be ready for the next chapter in my life that I will soon come to encounter.
Junior year has been many things but most it has been a long journey. This year I have had more work and expectations from teachers. They require you to do more homework and classes are getting harder. Although one thing I have learned is to always try to stay on pace, because once you fall behind you begin to fall behind in all your work and just set it aside. Since I don't like having any homework I try my best to finish all my work during school hours. This makes it easier for me because I like to go home to relax, or go out and do whatever it is I feel like doing. Yes, sometimes there is a lot of school work to be done that I have to take home but I prefer to get it done and finish it before the deadline. The way I manage to stay organized and remember things is to write down or type it in on my phone to remind me what to do, this way I won't forget about homework or deadlines. Basically I don't like doing school work at home or especially during our breaks from school, yet teachers always give you school work during breaks! I don't understand why since they are days off from school where we should be able to enjoy them and spend it with friends and family not a pen and paper. This year I have had most classes with friends and others where they are not there and have made new friends as well as people I can count on for help. The bonus of this is that I am able to do projects with friends and people to work together with. Since elementary school my friends have stayed the same throughout my years in school till this day. Many have found new friends which I could have done too, but these friends I have known since we were kids and have been the funniest people to be around. They make a joke out of any little thing and can get you to laugh out loud, that is why I enjoy some time with them and have the funniest memories with them throughout my school years. Although this school year is not over I do plan to be in a sport. In recent years I have played soccer but this year I plan to do something different and be in a different sport. I have joined new clubs as well this year such as FBLA and Spanish Honors Society. These clubs are a way of having fun, experimenting new things and enjoying time here while at Lindsay High School. I have tried to not make this year stressful on me since senior year is coming up and will have more work to do. It is crazy how next year we will all be seniors and will walk down to receive our diplomas. This year is still not over yet but I will try to enjoy it and make the best out of my last years in high school. There is only one week left of junior year! Time went by really fast next thing you know I will be graduating. high school with my fellow classmates. This year was one hard and crazy journey with school and life. I know that next year will be even more crazier and different but I am hoping to get the hang of it and not give up even when I am freaking out about school assignments. Overall I am so over this school year and can't wait to start enjoying my summer vacation!!
