Freshman Reflection

Before I had came to The High School called Parkway West, I was very different. I was going to a Charter School called Walter D. Palmer Leadership Learning Partners Charter School. In their I really didn't like to do my work and play around most of the time. Instead of me putting my work first I would put Fun time/play around first. I often realized that I should be giving my all so I can get into a very good High school, but it was just the end of the year so I wanted to have fun with my classmates and friends one more time. Now I see my strives and expectations differently. In Parkway I put my work first and when I am done my work I choose to play around later. Also before i wouldn't get very good grades but now, I have improved so my experiences turned in to being good. For example, In my History Class I would always go to sleep or talk while the teacher was teaching, now I listen so I can move forward and learn more. Also for example, In my Science class I would just find everything my teacher was talking about boring so would not pay attention, but in my science class i have now, I find it very fun and amusing. My expectations for coming to Parkway West was to become a better person and cooperate more far as activities after school. Also my expectations coming to Parkway West was to get A's and B's and get on Honorole. Since coming to High School I do spend less time with certain people because that are not as much around me as they were before. We go to different schools so we are are apart from each other.  During this year it has been very important events in my life this year. One important event is that  My cousin has had a baby named Aiden Rivers. Also my cousin had got shot on Erie Ave for selling Drugs. Another one is that two of my cousins had went on their prom and both of them graduated.
