I’ve had two pretty rough months and it has heavily reflected on my academics and my willingness to actually do things on time and care when I do things. Well, I think I started caring so much about everything that I got overwhelmed and basically froze, was failing multiple classes, and virtually had no time other than what I had in between dance team and studio or when I got home at ten and whatever time I had before I fell asleep at my desk.

Like other kids, high school is a place where one tries to understand who they are and often mistakenly tries to become someone that they’re not. With my experiences in high school, the academic and athletic strains that begged me to quit, and the community services that I participated in, the person that I am today would be nonexistent.
