My High School Experience
When i think about my high school experience, there are many things that come to mind. Some of them are: good memories, bad memories, mistakes, lessons, happiness, heartbreak, misfortune, joy, drama, and most importantly, fun. High School to me seemed like it past by really fast, almost too fast sometimes. I learned many valuable life lessons as well as made life long friends. I learned the value of hard work, dedication, and also how to tell your real friends from the others. It was tough but overall a great experience that i will soon miss.
When i think about high school and all the memories, some of them were good, an some of them were bad. Most of the good memories involved my good friends and most of the bad memories involved just me. Some examples of good memories in high school is just like going to the different sports games with my friends. My friends and I attended many of the football games, basketball games and some baseball games. The sounds, the atmosphere, and the company of your friends is what makes the events so fun and exciting. Just good memories for me in general in high school include just the basic seeing people in the halls during passing period, doing class projects, attending assemblies, as well as just seeing people in class everyday. Some of the bad memories in high school for me include girls!!! I had 2 girlfriends in high school and both have a very special place in my heart, but they are the ones that caused me the most grief in high school. Surrounded by drama, fights, and disagreements most of my bad memories have something to do with them. Don't get me wrong i enjoyed one of the relationships i was in. Her name was Richelle Talbot. We were together for only 8 months but i felt like i had found a great girl. Some of the mistakes, lessons, happiness, joy and fun were all in direct relationship to the time i spent with her. She made my high school experience enjoyable as well as difficult. I would say that one of the biggest life lessons i have learned from this high school relationship is that you should always be yourself. People respect and enjoy the person that you really are inside, and if they don't, they are not really your friend.
Since being a freshman, i have changed in a major way. Coming into high school i was a shy, unmotivated young man that didn't really know what he was getting into.
