Journal 5 Reflection of the first quarter of Senior year

This is the last blog of the first quarter and it gives me a chance to reflect on the first quarter of my senior year. It is crazy to believe that I only have three quarters left in high school. I expected senior year to be easy and fun. It is defiantly fun but not easy, there are so many different things I have to do from staying on top of my grades in each class to making sure I have everything in for the deadline of the colleges I want to apply to and working at Hallmark Senior year is a crazy year but I am looking forward to all the things we get in our senior year. We got our senior polos which look amazing, some of us have been here since 7th grade so we are receiving six year shirts which I am excited about, later in the year we receive class shirts and at the end of the year we get to go to ball and Boston for our class trip. It is sad to think that senior year is going by so quickly because I am going to miss everyone, my friends, my amazing teachers at Bishop Kearney and the faculty. I want to try to continue to do my best with my grades I know some classes are tougher and I want to try harder in those classes to keep my grades up. I am excited about reading Hamlet and the Scarlet letter; I have heard so much about them that I am defiantly excited for them.  When I think about the first day I came to Kearney it seems like forever ago, but I remember thinking that senior year was so far away but in reality it was not at all. Even when I came into 9th grade at Kearney it was crazy to think that senior year was a few years away and now senior year is going by so quickly and it will be sad when it is over. I know what I want to do after high school but I feel like I am too young , for some reason when I think of senior I think of tall mature people that are ready for college. When I look at our class we are shorter than a lot of the people that were seniors our freshman year, also there are many immature people in our class that may not be ready for college. Senior year has been amazing so far and it can only get better. From the pep rally, spirit week and homecoming to all the little activities we did this first quarter, it was worth every bit of stress it caused me. I will admit it that it is very stressful and I have had those days where I feel like I cannot get everything that I want done, but I realized that I just need to keep pushing forward and continue to do my best. I want senior year to be fun and I want to enjoy it with my friends. I hope this year goes by at a normal pace so it is not rushed and so I can enjoy being with my friends and family at Bishop Kearney longer.
