Reflection

When Newcome assigned us all to "reflect" upon our high school career in a positive way, I laughed. High school hasn't been the greatest for me, and i honestly believe that those people out there that say high school was the greatest years of their lives, are totally pathetic.

I guess the only reall good thing i got out of high school are life lessons i learn myself, not those that were taught. I learned tolerance, aaannnddd when to cave in and quit due to the stresses of tolerance (Basketball). I've learned not to judge a book by it's creep cover, it may just turn out to be the love of your life (Brian). Iv'e learned that girls are nasty, cruel, mean people who know where to hit you hard, but that when you find one that isn't, you hold them tight (Tia). I've learned that teachers were once BA's themselves (Newcome and Evans). I've learned that some adults just never grow out of their high school ways (LINDA!!!!!). I've learned that when senioritis hits, it hits HARD (now :-) ). Iv'e learned that to take up for your sister to girls that tear her down, may just be the greatest thing an older sibling can ever do for their little sibling. I've learned that working everyday, as well as attending school everyday, equals no social life, and actually causes more stress.

School really hasnt taught me too much, its more so the setting that teaches the lessons you will forever use. Be yourself, and don't care what other people think. Be your own person.
