struggle, everyday I struggle. Bitter sweet feelings fill my mind and my heart, My mind wonders if I can finish this year with a diploma, and be ready for the next chapter in my story. wondering if I have done the right thing by living on my own, and trying to be independent. The thought often flows through my mind; are my parents proud of me for making these choices ? Are they disappointed that the words of advice haven't been taken seriously? But then does it really matter what they think?It does matter what they think,Everything matters. But the most critical thing that matters to me, being able to come back to this place I call home after my many years of studying and living my new life in the south. To see my mentors, family,old friends and fo's and being able to tell them what I have been telling them over and over, my life has become something wonderful.

doughnut hole country

Seeker and an achiever is definitely me . I read this paper and I definitely think school focus on the kids who have the best grades and the ones who shine the most on the field and the court. They seem more willing to put money down for those kids, rather then the kids who have so much potential but are not being helped as much. I believe that all students have the right to get an equal chance at becoming what they want If a high school student wants to get out of there home town and see the world (or a small piece of it) I think they will do what it takes to do that. But I also think if a students has obligations or just wants to stay they will stay. I'm looking to get out of the town and even the state. I want to prove to people that just because I don't have the best grades and I don't get into sports that I too can become something wonderful. I have started applying for college and I'm very aware that getting into a good school is going to be hard because my grades have been poor. But If and when I do get into college I know I will be ready to take steps to be what I want to be. The choice to leave a person's home town is up to them and know one else. Even though someone can be influenced to leave or stay the desition is up to them.

when I Grow Up

As I have started thinking about the future after graduation, college in Alabama seems to stay stuck in my mind. I'm Planning on going to a two year college, and transferring to a university. I have been thinking about going to school to become a special education teacher. being patient and helping people are two of my strongest quality's. Starting in May I'm going to start training to become a white water rafting guide. I know several amazing teachers who are rafting guides. They have become great influences in what I want to do. My goal is go to school during the year in Alabama and come back to Maine for the summer to be a rafting guide. I have been west to Wyoming, and by far it is the most beautiful place I have ever seen. traveling is probably the top thing on my list to do after college. One day in the far future I would like to have children and get married, but I want to experience life and at least check a few things of my list unless I find someone who has an agenda that is compatible.
