Just Being Me...
Being a high schooler is tough. Lots of drama, fights, and people changing. But I love it. I don't think I would want to be anywhere else. I'm preparing for my future, and loving every minute of it. Something I like about school is the freedom. Thinking back to middle school, we didn't really have the freedom that we have now. We still had to walk in single-file lines most of the time, and now we can pretty much go where we want (with a hall pass). Something I dislike about high school is the work. I have homework almost every night, and there's a lot more to do in class, and when it isn't finished, that gets added to the tons of homework I have to do.
As I progress from year to year, I am forced to make new choices, like what kind of people to hang out with, whether or not to study for my exams, and things like that. My freshmen year was probably the worst. I came to the high school not knowing anyone but the other freshmen. I would always wonder why the upperclassmen hated us so much (now I understand). Sophomore year was alright. I didn't have as much problems as I had freshmen year. I enjoyed sophomore year, I had pretty good grades, and I got through the year without many problems. Junior year, I'm pretty happy. I have amazing friends, good grades, and NO drama, unlike my first two years here. It's great to know that I don't care about all the stuff that I used to freak out over.
If I could live anywhere and any way I wanted, I would probably just stay where I am. No matter what people say about it, I love Bethel. I like the people here, the school, just everything about it. I still live with my parents, and most people would say that they would move out if they could, and I used to say the same, but if I really think about it, it's really not all that bad. They pay for everything, so I don't have to pay for anything. The ONLY thing that I would change is that I would have a job. I hate not having money to spend on what ever I want to. If I could be anything I wanted, I would probably be a doctor. Their salary is pretty good, and I want to be able to help people. If I could do anything I wanted, whenever I wanted, I would travel. I love travelling, and seeing new places. I like being on the road, and I don't like staying in one place. I would like to visit every state in the United States, and then maybe some other countries. Five years from now I hope to be graduated from college, or at least almost done with college and starting a career in the medical field. Twenty years from now I want to be married, with a family and a couple kids. Thirty-five years from now, I hope to still be with the same career, and family that I had 15 years ago. Maybe a bigger house or nicer car though, because I hope to have a lot of money, since the job I want pays well. Fifty years from now I want to be retired, spending time with my family. I want to be happy with my life, and the choices I've made. That is what I'm working for right now, is my satisfaction in my life when it's at its end..
