I am now done with first semester of my senior year, and I am feeling rushed. I now only have one semester of high school left. Knowing that I have already had seven semesters of high school and now I’m on my eighth, I feel a lot of pressure to finish all my courses as soon as possible to guarantee that I graduate and attend college. My mind has got the hint that I am super close to graduating and therefore, I need to stay on pace or even ahead of pace in my classes since I will be missing a few classes here and there for activities. I finished first semester off great, I passed all my classes and ended up with a 4.29 grade point average for first semester senior year which now puts me at rank 17 in the senior class of 2017. I feel accomplished, all my hard work was shown when I received my report card. I had actually been struggling with most of my classes but I put in the time and hard work in order to be able to pass all my classes even with a 3.5 or 4.0. Unfortunately, I was not born intelligent like a few others may have been, but that does not stop me from trying, I believe that I can always learn and still never have enough knowledge. I am struggling the most with Chemistry, I find Chemistry very difficult but I still managed to get my work done and pass first semester. I applied to colleges last year in like October and November and I have got accepted to three of my four schools already. I have been accepted to Fresno State, Sacramento State, and Stan State. I am waiting for a response from San Jose State but they stated that they will begin accepting in middle or late February. So I may still be accepted to San Jose State as well. I am hoping to also get accepted because if I do then that will mean that all the schools I applied to accepted me. It feels good getting those acceptance letters and even emails notifying you that you have made it into college, it pushes me more to finish all my courses in high school and move on to further education. So far first semester of senior year went by as fast as a race car and I know that second semester will be the same. These few days in second semester are already over and before I know it i'm going be doing my Senior Exit Interview and then later on graduating. I feel stressed because time never stops and I feel like I am going to run out of time and I can not turn assignments in late. I can not afford to get behind pace or slack off because I want to be able to walk at graduation with the rest of my class. Hopefully this new semester goes as good or even better than last semester.
