What I learned...First Quarter

This quarter I was basically worthless. I learned that in order to make things in my life balanced my senior year I have to divide my team evenly among my activities. Applying for scholarships and colleges has been a big part of my life in the opening weeks of the school year and consequently my grades haven't been exactly where I would like them to be. I know that going to a good college is very important to me but I still have to maintain good grades in order to reach my ultimate goal of receiving scholarship money. I also learned that my mom is crazy in many ways. Most of the time she is funny and weird but sometimes she turns into a scholarship Nazi. I'm pretty sure she would kill me if I didn't apply for every scholarship known to man, which is a tough feat to conquer. I love my mom but sometimes, because of her fervour towards scholarships, I think she is just trying to get me out of the house by the cheapest means possible. O well, this quarter I learned I have to work for what I want. Thank goodness I get three more chances while I'm still stuck in high school...
