Refection of my freshman year at parkway west



My freshmen year at parkway west has been quite an experience. I've learned a lot of new things and gotten to see the real high school world, of course it turned out to be nothing like TV but it was a little similar. At the beginning of the school year I would have considered my self-shy, quiet and to my self. But through out the year I could feel a change in my self, my atmosphere, and even in my grades. I was not my self lately. I started to conform but as this year abruptly comes to an end I can say I survived my freshman year and anticipate becoming a sophomore next year. This year was rough and I had many obstacles with keeping up, staying on top of my “ A” game, being alert and even at times just making an effort .For an example in the first few weeks of school I barely had anyone to talk to. I would just sit down quietly and copy notes but now since the year is ending I’ve seem to become careless and walk into the classroom and just not get right to my work. I will procrastinate, talk, and just not be attentive. But lately I have been working on that because I have some catching up to do. During this change I wouldn’t say it was good, it was bad, and I will try my best to improve my actions. During middle school I was as out and open to everything as I am now academically I was on the roll. But when I look at my self now I saw a difference. But coming to parkway I excerpted it to me perfect, I would just have fun all the time and that it would just be a breeze. But reality set in after a while and it turned out to be no joke.
