Junior year was a bit challenging for me. It was not challenging because of the work, but I joined a career program. I had to keep up with both of my schools. For me to be successful with so many things going on, I had to stay organized and think ahead. My success was that I kept all my grades above a C+. Throughout my whole high school years, I had someone to motivate me. I wanted better for myself. I knew If I did the right things, good things would come to me. I like the finer things in life and I plan to have them. I go to school and work to have a better future.
Describing my junior year to a stranger would be like a college student describing their junior year. Starting my career in high school is a blessing. You have a good idea of

Being so focused on meeting other people caused me not to get to know my cousin. Come to think of it, we share a lot in common. I also had a paying job after school hours. I babysat Monday through Thursday and then I worked at a grocery store on the weekends. It was a challenge working with kids, keeping the house clean, and doing homework all at once.
Getting closer to my senior year was very exciting. My biggest accomplishment will be walking across the stage. Making my family and those who care about me proud has been always a happy moment. I like to keep people happy. Giving back to those who helped you are very important.
Even though I had so many responsibilities, I still had some fun time to hang out with my best friend. My freshman year, I already felt like a senior. It was my sister’s senior year and I was a freshman when we went to school together. I always hung out with my sister and her older friends; they even treated me like a senior. I always was included in their plans. My junior year was a long ride for me. I had my ups and downs, but that is with everything that comes in life. I’m Just proud of myself for getting through Junior year. I am just one more step closer to my dreams. I Am very happy to start my Senior
My Senior year was supposed to be a a time to remember but it was not. I got into my first accident. My friend and I wanted to go eat after school. We all meet up in the parking lot. We decided to go to Chick fil a. Chick-fil-A was a long way from our school so we car pooled.
Sophomore year, I learned more about hard work than ever in my life so far. I doubled up in science, I was constantly bogged down by copious English assignments, and my basketball coach pushed me further than anyone had ever before. I made a lot of bittersweet memories in the hot, musty OAC that winter during those practices. Junior year was an absolute blur. I made an effort to engage in my friendships and learn more about the people around me.
I was so excited for the year due to the fact that i got to experience Y&G with my brother. Little did I know that senior year changed my brother. My brother Riad had always been a shy kid until senior year. During his senior year he started to experiment with different drugs and alcohol.
My Freshman year was the best year ever! I got to be in marching band, FFA, and I got a tremendous academic placing. I definitely did a great job this year compared to last year. I broke out of my comfort zone and worked my hardest to get a high GPA, and join some different clubs. I met new friends and even passed driver 's ed.
By the time junior year began, I had already been settled in my environment and I knew how to succeed in the classroom. This year was definitely the toughest for me, especially due to the fact that I was in advanced classes that I had to balance with my life outside of school. However, I sill maintained to achieve a very high GPA and receive awards for my accomplishments. In addition, this year solidified what I wanted to do the rest of my life; the experiences I had in the classroom demonstrated the love and passion I had to science and medicine. I know now that I want to pursue a career in the medical industry, and I hope to one day become a pediatrician or a pediatric surgeon.
My proudest achievement would be getting into Cumberland International Early College and making it oy my senior year. The three years I have spent at Cumberland International have been very difficult because of many reasons such as being on the campus of Fayetteville State University, taking almost two years of high school in only two semesters, and being pushed to excel from the beginning in order to prepare to take full level college courses by our tenth grade year. Although I struggled during my time at CIECHS it was a truly amazing opportunity to be accepted as the third graduating class of its time. Being at a school that had only been running for two full years has both positive and negative aspects. We were changing the curriculum
I could have easily continued to be sad about my life and I would probably be in the same boat I was junior year. But instead I decided to view things as an opportunity, realizing along the way that I could use all the bad in the world to make myself a better person. I began to grow very thankful for my life and the hardships I had faced because I understood that they built the person I am, and continue
There hasn’t been some an event that I consider special but I’ll hope that will change in the last 2 years of high school. However, 3 eventful things have happened like in the last school year I met Maria Camila Rodriguez but out of kindness we call her “The Rich Girl.” A party for my fifteenth birthday was celebrated in the ninth grade as well and my newest friend is Leah Duboy, a new student at the school. Whom, I hope make memories with.
By the time I graduate high school, I will already have my college associate degree that I will have earned through my hard work and dedication. Even though I went through a lot at such a young age, it has shaped me in every possible way. I was exposed to a whole different language and culture, but I was able to succeed through my strong desire of success and dedication. I am thankful for every challenge that I had to go through because if it was not for them, I would not be the person I am
My journey consisted of many good and bad times, and throughout the years I discovered my strengths and weaknesses. I made new friends, took on different tests, accomplished many things. My first year was my most difficult, being new to the school, but as the years went by, school became a more fun experience for me. Knowing that the 4 years of high school was a journey for me, I was able to brace myself for the difficult times to come and the rewards I was going to receive. At the end of the journey, I had gained a lot from these 4 years, but it also prepared me for my next journey, my journey through university.
Currently, as a senior, I am gratified with all the decisions I have made throughout my four years. I am now leader of the SAFE Club (Students Are For Equality) and the FOR Club (Friends of River). The SAFE Club's main goal is to create more cultural awareness, and discuss current events dealing with race, gender, and sexual orientation. The FOR Club's main objective is to promote a healthy environment in our school and neighboring community by volunteering in any way possible. I am also in FMP (Freshman Mentoring Program), which guides high school freshman on the right path socially and academically.
It was finally my time to shine and then I would be heading off into a new chapter of my life. It was honestly the most exciting, but scariest feelings when I would think about it. In less than a year I would be walking across the stage on the football field and saying my goodbyes to my fellow seniors. The school year was really relaxed though, I did take the more advanced classes, but since I had taken them previously, I was used to all the pressure and the amount of work that was thrown at me. Yeah, some classes were more difficult than others, but I knew how to cope with the crying every once in awhile and slight depression from the amount of stress.
I’m still with the same crowd as last year which made me comfortable in school. This year is one of the eventful year of my life. Crashed hopes, success, failures, and many more. I’m starting to be more vocal to other people. I’m starting to unfold the recklessness that’s within me.
I had to leave my mother and sister who was only five years old at time to go to college and find myself. Carrying this load on my shoulders everyday really took a toll on me. Each semester presented a battle that I had to face with determination and sheer will power. I had great semesters, okay semesters and what in the world is going on semesters. Undergrad was my best and worst experience.
I have had a few major things happen to me throughout my life. Most of the important events happened in middle school and further on. I did accomplish a few things in elementary school. Once I was in middle school I joined the scouting organization and achieved good grades. In high school I was placed very high in my class after struggling at the beginning of the year.
