    When I was in high school, I always knew I wanted to acquire a higher education.

  • Personal Narrative: Life As A Transfer Student

    498 Words  | 2 Pages

    As we grow older and progress from the days of nap time and color books of kindergarten to the football games and school dances of high school we undoubtedly change a great deal. We change how we dress, what we like, and even who we are friends with, but through all this turnover there is one persistent question that remains, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”. I have always dreaded being asked this question partially because it is such an infinitely complex question that requires such a rudimentary answer but also because I have never truly realized what I wanted to be when I had ceased to grow. This was none more apparent than in my first month of kindergarten. It was about an hour towards the end of the school day when we were asked to answer the seemingly straightforward question.

    The first nine weeks has come and gone already within the blink of an eye, and time seems to be moving along at a record pace. This first nine weeks was interesting as well as difficult. It was interesting in the fact that I once more had to take different classes with nearly all new teachers, having to become accustomed to original teaching styles and their conflicting ways of grading from classes of old. Also interesting was my schedule in the way that my final class concluded at eleven forty-eight; this turned out to be a blessing. I remember one day maybe three to four weeks into the quarter when I decided to stay up late watching a football game or something, and the next day I was extraordinarily tired and felt as if I was a zombie.
