Made me suffer a lot, even though my mother and father always made me practice and not forgetting allowed me to understand many things.

From a freshman to a senior I grew a lot because in freshman and sophomore years I had always touched that I had to more years then I could catch up all of my credit so I could be able to graduate. But that did happen because in freshman I was a really social person and my grades were really bad I was not doing my homework I would rarely go to class than I had to get into a contracted. Even writing essay it always been hard for me because I would not practice now through junior and senior years I have been during I really improve a lot because now I go to my classes every day do all of my homework I practice all of my essays. And even sometimes I try to get involved with school like going a sport and it allows me always having a good Gpa so I could be able to play the sport. How does my learning impact my learning experience during high school? What I reflect in my learning experiences that it was not bad, but I think could have better because if I weren 't paying attention than I think that I know I was able to do something that allowed myself to make my parents proud. And how in my junior years I was able to pass all of my class by making all effort that I have ever done by not going with my friend, doing my work asking questions of something that I did not understand also I would be more focus than I ever been during my high school

Even through all of the trials and tribulations of trying to make it through high school, I still decided to continue my education. I have pushed on and tried my very best to go on with schooling with what I was taught and what I have had to teach myself. Throughout high school I had to work on my school work around my parents schedule due to the fact that they work shift work and I have to watch my two younger siblings. Not much has changed in that aspect of life, I still have to work around my parents schedule and watch my little siblings while working a full time job. Something that has helped me to get through both high school and this first semester of college is that I do my very best to figure out how to do assignments on my own and was always willing to ask for help when I couldn't grasp how to do something on

When I started Unity High School I thought that it was going to be boring school because my first choice was Skyline but my mom made me come to this school so I had to obey what my mom wants because she takes care of me and helps me with whatever I need help with so going to the school that she wanted me to go to was the least I could have done.

As I write this, I’m sitting in the air conditioned 20 by 30 foot Campus Ministry room. It makes me feel nostalgic to think that it was just last year I was sitting in a room by the same name with strikingly different characteristics: cramped, muggy, hazy yellow lighting. Since my freshman year the entire building has slowly evolved from the latter to the former. Now as a senior, the renovations are over halfway completed, and it makes me feel funny to think that in the near future the Wahlert of my freshman year will be long forgotten in both appearance and culture. As graduation gets closer, however, I have realized that my frustration toward the internal changes of Wahlert do nothing but overshadow the good memories I have of Wahlert.

As a freshman, I enrolled in a private school, called Bridgemont High School. It was a very small school and did not have the same help as the public schools offered.
