Year

Welp, I had a pretty good year. I enjoyed reading Hamlet that was fun. I think my year started out ok but it has gone downhill! You know my year actually started out pretty poopy. I missed my first day of school and then some because my grandpa died. Great timing Dale (It is a joke rip gpa love you bro). The musical low key sucked. But I made honor roll so that’s good. I tried my best but my best was never very good. Oh well! I still made honor roll (thank gosh). I enjoyed fences and oedipus rex, I really liked oedipus rex (don’t look to into that). I did not enjoy the book projects, not your fault, I know they are helpful and I am glad I did them but I wish I could have chosen my books (like from a list). I loved Things Fall Apart, I really did not like Kite Runner it was written well and it had a good message but I just did not feel ok about it. Beloved was ok but I always struggle when I’m told to read something. I like reading for myself and books I want to read, but it did challenge me in new ways which I was not expecting. My least favorite thing was the personality test. I think you know that (whoops). I just strongly dislike personality tests and I would not have been so bothered if it was just a personality test but it was also a paper and career research and it was very annoying. Doing vocab cards was helpful and I had a good time with those too. My mental state was easy to track with my pictures on my vocab cards.

I do think doing the stuff I don’t like helped me though. Life is riddled with things we don’t want to do but we have to do. Like taxes. I can complain and birch about things as much as I want but at the end of the day I still have to do it. This is sounding fairly rude and I genuinely don’t mean it to be, I did enjoy your class a lot, this is regarding literally every class I was in this year. I think my vocabulary has improved as well, I don’t use it in my blogs because I want to keep a certain vibe going.

I don’t really have much advice for incoming seniors. I guess just to take things one day at a time, don’t take on too much, and remember that life is full of unexpected situations.

I don’t have much AP test advice, I’m fairly certain my advice will not count for next year. Just practice and do your work.
