Junior Year is almost over.

Well, it seems that after what seems like ages, my Junior year of High school is finally coming to a close. In that time, I was able to learn much, like how online classes are not fun and how AP tests are not fun to study for when you don't know the material. Nothing really changes for me. A little extra studying and exercising this summer will basically be it, in order to prepare for both the SAT and life after high school. Still, it will be sad to see people I knew go, mostly the people from MVGS, but also others, like the seniors at Handley.

Although I only got to really get acquainted with about 3 or 4 people from Handley, it was really nice to get to know them. I just realized that my thinking process is already beginning to deteriorate. At this rate, I'm not going to be able to get a perfect on the SAT because I'll only know vocabulary and nothing else. Did I just get sidetracked?... darn. Well, MVGS was a great experience. I really enjoyed it, through both the bad and good times. Some teachers could teach very well, and others... prepared me for the teachers of college, whether they be good or bad. I was introduced to a load of new computer games, such as Halo and Trickster, and also many people from different schools. I knew of a few of them, such as Tomy and possibly Schuster, through after school activities (i.e. Academic Team), but I never actually got to know them personally. Now, I haven't really gotten to know them personally much more, but I have befriended them, at least, and many others as well! Yes, although Govy school could be a challenge at times, the friends that I made allowed the challenge to be much less painful. They all understood the challenges, so they could sympathize with you.

As this year comes to a close, I hope to write in this much more, and care a lot more. I believe that I have to do something like this in AP English anyway, so I'll just be practicing. I hope that I can remember, perhaps I'll just set up an alarm on my phone or something. Well, anyway, I hope that all those who are leaving high school forever as this year comes to a close have fun in college. The rest of those underclassmen, well, see you next year.
