High School - My Thoughts and Goals

The entire time that I was in Middle School, I would think about the next level on the food chain, high school. The first day was not exceedingly bad like I thought it would be. Teachers just introduced themselves and their courses, and I wasn't really worried. I still feel the same, and I hope that I can reach my goals for this year and throughout high school. 

I have a couple of goals for life that I would like to reach in the next 4 years. First of which being my choice of college. I have had a list of 3 colleges for a while now, and mainly because I have always known what I have wanted. The three main colleges that I would like to apply for are MIT, Stanford, and Harvard. I know that I will have to work hard to achieve this goal, and I am ready to go full speed ahead to reach it.

    My first day was kind of confusing, but I've gotten better. My goals are similar to yours but Yale is my top school. Though Harvard or Stanford would be great too. Maybe we could go to college together! :)

    It's cool to see how motivated and excited you are for high school. If you really push yourself to get good grades, I know you will make it into those schools.

Week 8 Free Writing

I noticed something very puzzling over this fall break. Every year my family takes a trip to Destin over fall break. We all have a great time as long as there are no red flags. And that was the problem with this year. Every single day that I went to the beach, there was a red flag even though the waves were very calm. Upon getting into the water, my feet fell from under me and I fell face first into the sand. It was painful, to say the least. I experienced something called under toe. It is actually very normal, and I was just stupid enough to not expect it. Under toe is caused by the waves that hit the shore and start falling back into the ocean. It creates a very powerful pulling force whenever there are strong waves. If this force is strong enough, then it can be very deadly. So just be careful the next time things look calm and always check the flag color for that day.

Harrison Bergeron Response

Harrison Bergeron is an interesting jab at how the future United States of America would look like. The story is set in 2081, and America has been drastically changed by a new set of amendments. These amendments form a new department of government called the Handicap General. The Handicap General's job is to make sure that all people are on equal grounds in every aspect of life. Harrison Bergeron focuses on a family that has just lost their son to the Handicap General, and their son has started a revolt by claiming to be the emperor. He is shot by a shotgun right after. One interesting part of this story is how America has completely changed from its original values. America was meant for everyone to be equal at the starting line and not the finish line. Being equal at the finishing line completely messes up society as a whole. This is because more people could put in more work than others, and yet still be equal to them. One example of this would be comparing...
