Missing in Action....

Today I was feeling a little bit under the weather, and decided to take it easy this morning, and not go to WISE class. Yes, I know Ms. G I'm very very sorry. Although I did do the good student thing, and went to find Ms.G when I came into school. She told me that during class we talked about Student Evaluation spots, and talked about the sample presentation. She also mentioned that we were assigned to write about our WISE experiences by addressing juniors. The prompt for this assignment is "What I know now, that I didn't know in September..."

Coming into WISE my Senior year I was expecting a nice easy ride through high school. What I have come to learn is that it takes a lot more effort than you'd think. Of course, I knew I had to do a good amount of work in the first semester, and continue through individually with a project in the second semester. But as time passed I began to worry about my actions. As the first semester whizzed by with reading books, writing essays, and keeping on tab with my basketball season, the first semester was over before I knew it. Now onto the more difficult time, focusing during the second half of the year. One thing you have to realize is how you're gonna feel around April and May, and that is lazy. Senioritis does play a large factor, but it will arise in any classes you take. On the bright side I do really enjoy my time in WISE. The people were good to be around, and both teachers are helpful, informative, and most of all cool! The material we speed through in the beginning of the year will really pay off in the future. As for the project, it helps you build as a learner, and also as a person. It makes you really focus in on a goal that you set from the beginning of the year, and hold it until the end. It's a great learning experience for yourself, and will help you get a good start off in college.
