My Reflection


The past year I feel like I have made a change and became a different person. The biggest change that I have made this year was my view on school and my education. I believe that this change was a good effect on my life. I now realize and see things that I never thought of before. Like the fact that school is really important and it predicts my future. I always knew that school was important but I never really wanted to do better and take it serious until I got into high school.
 Before I got to high school I really didn't like school and never thought I would. I completed my work and passed my classes, but deep down I didn’t care and never knew what an affect it had on my life. It seems as though now I deeply care about school and my education because I know how important it is. I used to believe that school just wasn’t for me. My plan was to graduate high school as an average student and be done with school after that. I didn’t really have goals in life. However, now I believe that I can graduate with good grades and I would like to go to college. 
During this school year I have become more optimistic about the future. I am excited to know how my life will be.  I am more determined to make smart choices in life so that my future will be as good as it can be.
Coming to parkway really changed my view and opinion in life. Hearing everyone talk about college and even seeing some of the  seniors go to college really had a positive affect on me. It makes me what to be successful and so the same. I now feel like it’s my job to achieve big goals in life and I am glad that I changed for the better.
