My most memorable moment of this year would be winning my match against Paulsboro. This was my first varsity match ever and I was nervous. I had been practicing for a few weeks with no matches or competition so I was ready to wrestle. I knew how hard I had been practicing and knew I earned my win that night. I was focused and mentally prepared to deplete all of my energy in a short, six minute match. I had accomplished my goal with pride and the hard work paid off. Lasting a few minutes on the mat is entirely exhausting for any caliber athlete. Only about two percent of Oakcrest's students wrestle each year so regardless of the outcome, I have a sense of pride and satisfaction. To dedicate yourself and time is a commitment most students aren't willing to make. Winning a match is cool, but it's the dedication you give and the sacrifices you have to make to do well in any sport. Wrestling gave me confidence to be proud of what I am part of. It's not for everybody, but I had fun doing it and it made me a better person then I was before. I'm glad I went through through the season and found it worth my while. Pain is temporary, pride is forever. I believe in that quote because I've experienced it myself. Being an athlete isn't easy and it can be tiresome, but after you go through a season of any sport you're glad you did it. I think back to that night, when I won my first varsity match and honestly will miss wrestling. It's been a part of my life for four years and can't believe it's already over. it's shaped who i am and it will be a part of me for the rest of my life.
ReplyDeleteWhat a year it has been for me. I think my most memorable moment this year has the playoff games this year for football. When we went to Williams’s town I remember the crowed being packed and thought wow we really made it. And after we beat them I was just trying to enjoy that moment forever because it was the school’s first football playoff win. I remember after our coach dismissed us to the busses walking threw the crowed was one of the best feelings I’ve ever felt in my life. Hundreds Of cheering people congratulating you for all the hard work we put in and just proving everyone wrong and telling everyone how we could win and we actually did. Going home on the bus was very memorable also. I remember sitting in the back of the defensive bus telling giftey to make fun of Joey ish and sidiq and having it recorded on my iPod. Then the next game came with even more excitement. The Atlantic City game also memorable because I remember seeing at least 500 of our fans there. It felt good winning that game not only because Atlantic city was very cocky going into that game KNOWING we beat them already, but because winning that game brought us to the state championship. The state championship games kind of changed me a little bit. I remember being more nervous then I’ve ever been in my hole life, but for me just being there watching thousands of people watch me and all my brothers go out there and play for our very last time.. it was very memorable, and tragic at the same time. I went in that game not thinking about what would happen if we lost. We ended up losing and I remember watching everyone just break down. We all felt like all of our hard work was for nothing. But as I sit back and realize what we have done and what we have overcome it just amazes me what hard work can do. If you put in the time and the hard work you can overcome and succeed in anything. That’s what I’ve learned from this year.
ReplyDeleteI think my most memerable moment of the year hasnt come yet. Because i feel the moment they call my name at graduation will be the best thing i remember form senior year , i get to see my friends graduate and i feel as though if that happens it would be something i wont forget. When i get my diploma , and i see my mom cheering me on i will be at my happeist because i would know i made her proud. That is when life starts so i probably will look back at that the most then anything , so i guess i would hae to say that me graduating will be the most memerale thing i remeber in high school.
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment so far is when I got to go out and drive on my own with my friend Amanda. It was Saturday and I was working when my dad called me to tell me that he was going to New York for work and he couldn’t pick me up. He told me that my brother was going to pick me up and that’s when it occurred to me to ask if I could use the car for the day. Usually my dad’s excuse is that he needs to have a car at home just in case but because he was going to New York there was no need to leave the car for anyone. My dad argued me about it and eventually said that I could be he told me to just take care. So after getting picked up from work I went home and got changed to go out with my friend Amanda. I drove all the way to Mullica to pick her up and then we went to the mall for a few minutes. After the mall we decided to go out to the new Hibachi restaurant that they opened up by acme to eat some sushi and Chinese food. We were so stuffed that we barely wanted to get up but we did and I stopped by my house to pick up my brothers friends because they needed to get home. So me and Amanda just drove them all home and then headed back to her house to drop her off. Now Mullica is far from where I am and I’m talking about far. Because I was a beginner driver I was not used to egg harbor city roads and Mullica’s so on my way home I have my parents blowing my phone to get home and because they were bothering me I accidently took the wrong turn. After yelling at my friend because I had no idea where I was at I finally found something that reminded me of where I was at. I fallowed that road straight and eventually got home. My parents were not really upset my mom was just a worried and annoying mother like all mothers and my dad just told me okay. After getting home I remembered that Amanda asked me to call her when I got home and I did but I pretended that I got arrested and after she was worried a little I finally told her I was just kidding. It was a fun day and it was the most memorable day so far because I felt independent to be driving alone and I had some fun with it.
ReplyDeleteSo far nothing seriously memorable has happened in senior year and some things I want to forget. The moment Im waiting for hasn't come yet. I believe that moment will be when I graduate highschool. Me as well as my family amd friends will be very proud to hear my name called out at graduation. When that happens it'll be very relieving to my parents because they were not 100 percent sure if I was gonna even graduate. After high school thats when real life starts. Yes Im 18 right now going on 19 but after Im done high school I think thats when I can truly say I am completely an adult. Besides graduating being a memorable moment for me, getting my liscence will be too. Just like graduating high school it will show my hard work payed off. It is also another step towards more independence. Those two things are what will be most memorable this whole year. Of course graduating I think is the most important.
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment at Oakcrest High school would have to this year’s football season. I will never forget the hard times my team and I put in the off season to get to the group 4 state championship. I will never forget my brothers I played with and how much shit we went through before Coach Smith came around. He was a great coach and an even greater person. He would do anything for any one and that’s what I like about him. He never held your hand with football or even with the real world, he was like our second father. Not just him all the coaches we could go up to them and start talking about life or football and they would give the time to talk to you. We had a great senior season, went 9-3. Best record that oakcrest football in a long, long, long time. I know I can tell people that I was a player on the Oakcrest football team in 2010 and to say I was a caption is even better. Being picked to be a caption was the greatest feeling in the world. I knew that my brother trusted me to lead them into battle every Friday night and I knew that I had their backs no matter what happen, on or off the field I still looked out for them and they looked out for me. That’s what we were a family. We laughed together and even cried together. That’s what I think made this year so special, I had a family with football and that we had fun together all the time but when it was time to work we worked. The dinners on Thursday night sitting down with all of them and talking about school football and even the weekend were the best, but what was even greater was winning with them. When we won it was a team thing, there was no one person that won the game for us it was all of us. The great thing about that was that we all knew that and in years past we pointed fingers on the loses and wins but not this year, we did it as a team as a family. The great’s memory from my senior year was the 2010 football season and my brother right behind me for the ups and downs.
ReplyDeleteYou are asking me to tell you the most memorable thing this school year is near impossible. Even though this year has felt the shortest, there are so many things I will remember no matter where I am in my journey called life. One thing I will never forget is how my teachers helped me get through the tough times I had and didn't understand. I always thought I was bulletproof and nothing could harm any of us at this age. I was wrong and it affected me in a huge way. I hated what happened but I have to get through it everyday and say my blessings to those I love and lost. I don't wanna tell you that I feel accomplished because of the sports I did because they were just activities I was involved in, I don't think any of the other athletes understand that I am more than my sport. I wanna tell you about the times we had in your class and how much we all care about your opinion more than any other tacher because you actually want us to accomplish something great in life. It's true that you probably won't be reading in any magazine that I helped cure any disease, but you might see me in some crazy adventurous stupid thing that will most likely be life threatening :) you know I like crazy. I will miss you alot and alot of the things we did in your class. You are by far the most interesting single serving friend I've met. Ya see I feel that everything in a school year is single serving, it is quite clever. I think you will be one teacher I will never forget.

ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment of this year would be how the Oakcrest basketball did this year. We had started kind of slow but we had approve from last year. We had went to the playoffs and went all the way to the semifinals,then lost to Shawnee who had won our division. Not the way to end the season but i can say i had tried my best and played my heart out every game. I hope next year that all Oakcrest sports walks in my 2011 class foot step and try to make history again. I wish i could play more one more game with my two seniors basketball teammates and brothers Justin Knight and De Ward. I had a fun time playing with them and it was a good fight that we had tried to put Oakcrest basketball back on the map. I'm going to miss Oakcrest basketball and my great class. Class of 2011 made history for Oakcrest High School. "Yeah Shew Heard"

ReplyDeleteThe moment i remember the most about this year would be seeing my name on that car title. I was so stressed for about a whole month because my wait was finally over. I had just gotten my license and i was already talking to the seller so she could bring in the car to my house as soon as possible. It was a long week for me, having to wait to for the dmv to open and finding time to get my car inspected. The wait was well worth it. This car is so convenient, even though gas prices are shooting through the roof, i dont regret buying this car at all. My beautiful white pearl 2004 Honda Accord LX, most of my friends are telling me i look too young to be driving such a beauty. Just waking up and looking down at it from my window, i just think to myself "you've done well, your hard work has finally paid off." Insurance is high too but hopefully after this 6 month trial it goes down. Ive been driving safe, cant afford to crash or get a ticket. That is what i will remember the most about this year, who cares about osama bin laden! I finally got my car! Im driving to work! I love my life at this point.
ReplyDeleteThus far, my most memorable moment this year has been my boyfriend, who pretty much took over my life, breaking up with me. This occurrence made it to where I had to start all over again and make myself new and improved. Break ups are generally a hard thing, that's a fact, and it gets even harder the longer the relationship lasts for. When we broke up of course I was devastated, but it was my first taste of reality and independence. I did my best not to let myself be upset about it, because the bigger picture was that it was just another high school relationship and I need not ruin my senior year on it. It completely changed my outlook on life, and my entire personality. The break up was the best thing to happen to me. I made new friends that I never would have made if I were still in the relationship. You see, while I was in the relationship, I was comfortable; I had no need to branch out or meet new people because I had Michael always there anyway. Michael actually held me back from growing up. With him I had no motivation to get a job or do well in school because I spent all my time on him. I was bothered by the fact that I’d be graduating and he still had one more year in high school, which meant I wouldn’t see him as much. I was a butterfly stuck in my cocoon still, and Michael was the cocoon. Once that was gone, there was no limit to what I could do. Since then, I’ve gotten a stable job, my license, a car and a whole bunch of new friends that I don’t know what I’d do without. I’ve looked inside myself and realized it’s his loss and I’m only going to be better off without him. I know now not to worry myself with the end of petty relationships, but to occupy and surround myself with people who actually matter. My beginning of the year break up was my slap in the face, my reality check, my kick start to do good and live life my way, for once. I’m finally living and enjoying my senior year, and I wasn’t in the beginning.
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment this year might have to be the football playoff game against Atlantic City High School. It is one of my most memorable moments this year because we had to beat them to go to the State Finals. It was one of the toughest and most pressured games we were playing just because we had to win this game. We all hoped and dreamed for this day because we have never gotten this far ever in our life or our school, even way back in the day our school has never gotten as far as we did. I feel as that I had my best game that day, scoring three touchdowns with one of them as a punt return. I had plenty of tackles and a lot of rushing yards. I watched Zach, a defensive lineman jump up and grab the football out of the air like it was a rebound in basketball. It was amazing, he should have scored we all know how fast Zack really is, not fast at all. I loved that game because throughout my life time, I have never beaten Atlantic City ever and that day in the semi-finals was amazing to me. I finally beat the team that I have never beaten ever and it felt great! One of the best things I heard out of my coach’s mouth was when he yelled, “We are going to States!!” That gave me chills throughout my entire body and just showed me that my dream came true. Dreaming about that moment since my freshmen year finally came true. The class of 2011 al new that this was going to be the year that we were going to do it, we shocked the world and did something that none thought we could ever do. We may have lost the Championship game, but what we can say, is that we been there and that we beat almost every tea that stood in our way. I Can finally say that I went to the Championship game my senior year in high school. It is one of my best memories ever.
ReplyDeleteMy Most memorable moment was Oakcrest football. I met new people like Zach, Ish, Joe, Glenn and all of my other teammates who made my season great. Coming at Oakcrest and playing football I wouldn’t think some of the kids would accept me the way that they did. We first started the season 1 -2 where I thought the season would only go downhill from there. I was wrong, we finished the season 9-3. We made it all the way to the group 4 championship. It felt great, the atmosphere in the school, all the energy was great and it went into all the winter sports. It wasn’t like everybody was playing for their self we all became one and played as a team. My other memorable moments are that we had a great basketball season. Although I didn’t always like being there, I made the most out of it. We went to the semifinals and lost to Shawnee that one the division. I got to play with good people like Justin knight, Jeff skinner, De Ward. It was a great experience. I could probably say this is my best year of high school besides freshman year. Coming to Oakcrest wasn’t a bad thing after all. Now we are in the final stretch of school. I can’t wait for it to be over’ but I’ll remember it for a lifetime.
ReplyDeleteI feel the most memorable thing that happened so far this school year is when I got my car this was a time I will never forget I worked all summer saving up the money I needed in order to pay for my car on my own and when the time came and I actually had it in my possession the feeling was amazing. I remember everything that happened that day I was sitting in class then I heard my name on the loud speaker and it told me to report to the office and when I got there my mother was there and told me that we were going to go get my car. I hoped in my mom’s van and saw 2 of my friends Andricci and Sean then we headed out to the DMV and got my car registered and the title put under my name and the insurance then we were on our way to pick up my car. When we showed up to the place where my car was at I started to get a little nervous because I was waiting for that moment for months and then it was finally there I was just so excited. Then I walked in got my keys and ran to my car unlocked the door and jumped in the driver’s seat I was amazed I was sitting in my very own car it was shocking to be able to say that. I turned the key started it up and was pissed to see the car was on E I was like wow just my luck the first day and I already had no gas I was kind of mad but then I just pushed it aside and filled it up. Then we drove around all day and got a couple of things to eat I got a pair of earrings and some shoes then we headed home. This was just an amazing day that I will remember for the rest of my life there were other cool things that happened this year but none come close to the day I got my car.
ReplyDeleteThe most memorable moment in my senior year did happen yet. When I hear they call my name at graduation I know I will never forget that. I’m going to remember hearing my mom shouting out my name as loud as she can be. I’m going to remember walking up and shaking someone’s hand. A couples year later after I look back at my diploma and seeing my mom cheering me on I know I will be happy and I know I have made my mother proud and I know I’m going to remember that day because I think that’s the most memorable day of your high school days. There are some other memorable moments but I think graduation is the most. I guess I just have to wait and see. That is when life starts a new chapter.

ReplyDeleteOne of the most meomorable things that happen this year in my family was my cusins wedding. We were all excited expecially me since this was the first time i would be attending a wedding and not seeing it on tv. The wedding it self was great even though we got yelled at for taking pictures in the church, they had a beautiful set up with many flowers and a lot of guest. The party afterwards was cute, They had the new couple dancing and the throwing of the flowers.Also, the food was awsome exspecialy the cocolate foutain. Thats one of the memorable moments that happen in my life and my familys.
My most memorable moment this school year has been getting suspended for the first time my whole life. It wasn't a good memory but it is something I will always remember. I went through re-k till 11th grade and I didn't get in any trouble. Then my senior year comes and BAM suspended for four days over the dumbest reason. I always thought my whole life that people got suspended for like fighting or doing something really bad but apparently I'm a bully but that's besides the point. My most memorable moment so far my senior year had definitely been that, it may not be a good memory but I will always remember it and I'll make sure to tell my kids not to "bully" other people. :P After prom and graduation this answer would most likely change.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of memories that really stuck out to me during my senior year. I cant think of just one really good one, so ill just briefly describe a few. My first and greatest memory will be of how much smoother being a senior has been. To be able to go through a year without the problems I used to encounter was great. I made it through a whole year with all but one enemy, and I feel pretty good being able to say that. No body likes that feeling when you have to worry about people talking about you, or when you have to put up with someone messing with you. I for one am someone who is completely against all of that stuff because it’s not worth it to me. I have my friends, and theirs no one standing in my way, so what more can I ask for? This doesn’t really sound like a normal memory, but its something ill always enjoy to remember. Maybe it’s the maturity of the people I’m around? Or maybe its just a perk of being a senior? I think its safe to say that its just really nice to be at the top of something. Now of course they’re where a few mishaps during this almost perfect memory. Such as I happened to get snagged with a psychotic ex girlfriend, but hey I guess every guy gets one of those eventually, so no sweat. On to my next memory. So another thing that caught my attention this year, was a new friend I made. She really made a whole new impression on me. I’m not really sure why, but she’s always nice to me and always does things that I like. She doesn’t have texting,( which is the greatest thing in the world to me) she always calls me up at night and she always wants to hang out. What more could anyone ask for? Well anyway this girl changed my impression of the female race from really bad(<-sorry Bunje), to something a lot better and I’m really glad it happened. I’m always going to remember that, so it makes my list. That sums up a few of my most memorable things this year.
ReplyDeleteOne of the most memorable moment in high school was not just one moment it’s many moments. Its everyday being in 11th period having fun a being challenged with work, words and debates. Yes I struggle but I also think that if it was too easy to get a passing grade it wouldn’t feel right. It might sound crazy but it is true if it wasn’t for Miss. Bunje I would not have had to really start focusing and not just half- *** my work. So the memory of going to 11th period. Being challenged on things that I believe is one and learning how to not do it the other way and do the right way like writing. Yes I will still make mistakes but I still will work hard to do better thanks to Miss. Bunje. Why is this a memorable time was the teacher but also the learning environment. Not many teachers try to understand their students but this year was different it is more enjoyable to be in class learning, reading and many others. Not going to pretend everything was always great but it was great 99% of time listening. Actually wanting to hear a teacher read a story and wanting to learn. Being in 11th there was never a dull day there always something funny or something fun to do in class. From jokes being made from students to teacher or from teacher to student. Or just having discussions on life and or relationships it was very unexpected to have a teacher that you could relate to or wanted to hear her advice or tell her your problems.Miss. Bunje 11th period English 4 has been a learning experience that shall never be forgotten. Due to all of the things that have happened the good the bad and the funny.Usually after each I think to myself im not going to miss any teacher but I can honestly say this year I will.Even throught all the things people said the good and the bad when they heard the name Miss. Bunje this is and will be the best English class in all the four years of my high school career all thanks to BUNJE.
ReplyDeleteMy most memmorible moment this year would have to be when i won my first wrestleing match. it was memmerable because this was my firlst year wrestleing and i was winless for the seson.it was also 2 days after i got pined in 13 seconds.and i was thinking about quiting but i decided to keep goin when i won i felt great.i had worked hard for almost 2 months befor it happened. that win kept me happy for months and is one of the few things that have bee good during my senior year
ReplyDeleteI would have to say my most memorable moment is to come in about a month, when I hear my name called at graduation. After so many years of school it's all finally going to come to an end. I kind of wish I listened to the seniors that would tell me enjoy it because it goes quick. It feels like just yesterday I walked into Oakcrest as a freshmen and in the blink of an eye I'm in my sr year. To hear my name called on graduation night will have to be my most memorable moment of the 2010-2011 school year.
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment this year was during the basketball season. It was my senior night and our last home game of the regular season. It was a coincidence that we happen to be playing our school rival Absegami. The stands were pack and it was a tight game. I believe to the best of my ability that we down two points with almost two minuets left in regulation. We were on offense and I was on the left wing behind the three point line. Justin Knight was up top and passed me the ball on the wing. Absegami were playing a two-three zone, so they were giving us the three point shot. I just caught the ball and shot and it was good. It hit nothing but the bottom of the net. That was a huge shot that put us up by one. The game wounded up going into overtime. In overtime their was a similar type of situation. We were down four points this time with less than two minutes left. This time position at the top of the key. The ball still came from Justin who happened to be on the right wing. I caught the ball and with no hesitation I shot another three and made it. We were now only losing by one point. We got a stop on defense and got the ball back still only trailing by one point. Back at the top of the key I got the ball and having all the confidence in the world I shot another three. This one bigger than all of the other ones, goes in. We went up by two points in overtime and that shot put us up for good. We ended up wining the game in overtime by four points. I was so proud of myself. I felt like the hero of the game.
ReplyDeleteIt was hard to think about my entire senior year and think about my most memorable moment and just one at that. Nothing came to me when I read this blog so I had to do some hard thinking about break my senior year down. Between sports, friends, and just school in general it was hard and difficult. I had some fun ties senior year don’t get me wrong but nothing pops out to me that would be that important to write about. When I had my senior game in soccer that was definitely a highlight of high school I ended up in the newspaper and I was really excited about that. One of my best friends from middle school got into one of the best fights that I could ever say I seen. I know for a fact that that fight mad a big impact on my senior year and the way people reacted to that fight. Also during this year I finally turned 18. That was a huge thing for me, I mean it kind of stinks because now I can go to jail but I doubt that’s going to be happening to me anytime soon. Its really hard to choose just one really really really memorable moment. I’ve went through changes like getting a car and having more responsibilities like having a car and paying for gas and starting my first real job pretty much everyday after school. My classes and teachers certainly got better and worse and I can say that some teachers I wont forget and some I hope I do. So with that being said…I cant just pick one (sorry bunje) I will never forget never forget those few things I talked about earlier as well as these next few that I’m going to say. Throughout my normal day in Oak ill my most memorable moments would be not ever going to study hall and just walking around the lonely halls with anyone of my friends that had off that period like my friend Katie that had EPA for the nurse. Gym class with my two best friends Carmella and Alexis and just those girls constantly messing around with the teachers we had aka Sykes haha. Walking to culinary late basically every day and never getting in trouble. Chris walking me to my next class after Stocks with Mr. Ceirg and being ranked number 2 for Stocks. Last but not least my English class with you Bunje has always made the end of my day better then I could have imagined.
ReplyDeleteThe most memorable moment that i've had this year, was a certain situation that happened to me a couple days before new years. I remember the day like if it was just yesterday. I can't specifically tell you what the situation was because of personal reasons, but I ca definitely say it was a lesson learned. I lost a lot people who i thought would never give me their back, but everything changed in one night. Everything happened so fast. The only people that stuck by my side were my family. People aren't what they are set out to be and they say they're your best friends, but when you need from them in your time of need they turn their back. I cried myself to sleep, and sometimes I couldn't even close my eyes. I didn't feel safe anymore. I saw the true colors that these people who i shared multiple memories left. I see that no one in this world can be trusted, and because of this one night my whole life changed to the fullest. everything seems harder to believe, I don't look at anyone the same anymore, i can't open up to people, and its been hard for me to live a normal life. I try my best to forget that night, ut its impossible to forget when you know someone did something grimey to you, ad when you lose people that you've been close to you for so long. I ask myself why would something like this happen to me? At times I thought about getting away so I wouldn't have to see these people, but you have to face your problems no matter how hard they are, because that's what makes you wiser. In public I put on a mask to hide the pain and tears, that way people won't ask me whats wrong with me, but behind this mask I wanna hide and break down into tears. I find it hard to see past my fears and I feel as though no one understands me, but then again there is no point in opening up to anyone because it comes to the conclusion that no one can be trusted. I believe things happen for a reason, but not this. I know that know life won't be the same and i'm going to have to carry this day for the rest of my life.
ReplyDeleteMy most memorable moment for the past year would have to be all the fun things I've done and all the new friends I've made. This is my senior year and I wanted it to be one of my best years ever I started out going half day oak and half day acit, but I got suspended too man times there so I stayed at oak for half day that made things alot better I get out at 11:09, I have to say since september this has had to be one of the funnest years and one of the worst years of my life, this year has taught me alot. I have done alot of fun and stupid things but im not going o let that put me down. this is the end of a 12 year part of are lives. I want to have memories of this year for the rest of my life. I remember all the weekends when me and my friends did some of the CRAZIEST things, I remember my first year of having a car and me and my dad putting a motor in it, I remember getting my job at pepboys, I remember all the bad things too unfortionetly there were alot of them too, but there was something good that came out of them thats me learning from all those bad. to some it all up my best memory of this year isn't one inpeticular one its all the little things that happened this year that I will remember the rest of my life, and theres still enough of the year left to make a real memorable moment
ReplyDeleteWell, I've been through so much this past year so many memorable moments its hard to choose which is best. I would have to say that my most memorable moment was actually when I became homeless. It wasn't for very long but the mental stress of that on anyone is enough to break the strongest person. Though luckily i wasn't alone i had my die- hard best friend Ray Zeak with me. Not being alone isnt the same as losing everything because you still have someone to talk to about how crappy things are or how to make them better. Eventually he convinced his mother to take us in and i had somewhere to stay again. The same though kept going through my head what happens when i cant stay here no more. How am i ever going to fix my life with out a stable enviroment to think or feel safe. Until one day me and his brother Wayne were sitting in the living room talking. He told me man usually when people go through what you guys have they just break down and become some sort of crazy in-human natured person. He told me that it isnt how well you support yourself financially that matters, its how you handle a change or a fall per say and roll with it to get back up. The only real thing I learned was how to keep my own thoughts and not adopt some desperate "I'm going to steal from people" behavior. That was my most memorable moments in this past year.
ReplyDeleteThis year was of course a crazy year. The fact that this is the last year of high school and all the pressures with it. It has been a very stressful and complicated year. I don’t really think about all my friends and teachers and all the other crap there going to miss when leaving school like others. The few friends I have are only my close friends that I’ve known for a very long time. I don’t exactly make friends anymore, and I just really stopped trying. But this school year was definitely a pain in the, you know what. But I’m really not sure what my most memorable moment was about this school year. There really wasn’t any “moments” so say. In school it was the usual stress. Teachers hate you because you sleep in class, can’t remember anything, test and quizzes are harder than ever, got to think what college will be like, it just goes on. But outside has been just as stressful. I work a lot, more than I should for a kid still in high school. Work causes me to be tired a lot and affects my performance in school. Of course me being the idiot didn’t think must about what’s more important. Almost like I knew but didn’t know at the same time. So I guess the so called memorable thing about this school year is struggling to just make it through the year and graduate. There is no way I am going to be a super senior. Also how work has made it harder to do my work with school. I ended up screwing up, again, like I always end up doing. I need to try to fix it, I just hope I can do it in time, before it’s too late. I just wish I realized all this a lot sooner, how much I screwed up and what I need to do to get myself back on track. That’s really all I am though, just a screw up, at least that’s how I feel. I just hope I can pull through and just get all this bull crap out of the way. Because right now, I’m so incredibly miserable, and just hate myself. I just wish I could actually read.
ReplyDeleteI think my most memorable moment this school year was just my whole senior year; I really don’t just have one moment. Well it’s my most memorable moment because in the beginning of the year I still was acting like a child, like doing dumb stuff getting in trouble. But now I know this is not a game anymore and I have to get it together because I’m on my way out of here and on my way to the real world. And acting like a child in the real world is not something I want to do. This year is going to set me for my later years I collage in stuff like that because this year I also had to work hard, like I am in-danger of failing a class for the year. And I need to get a 91 to pass, so when I found that that’s what I need to pass I started to getting more into the books and stopped worrying about little dumb stuff like parties and hanging out at all types of the night. I started to study more and know when there is and isn’t a time to party and stuff. And that right there would have me great for collage long as I still keep the same mind set. Because collage is not something I wouldn’t want to mess up or fail in because that’s not free its a lot of money that I don’t even have to waste.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, even though it may sound corny, my favorite memory of this school year is meeting my boyfriend Steven. It has only been almost three months with him but i can already tell that he is going to be in my life for a while. I was bored and super stressed out right before he came back to Oak and before then I never knew or heard about him. So far I am a happier person and we remind each other of things we have to do for school. I'm just really glad that i finally have someone good in my life who treats me right. This whole year has been stressful for me so having someone to talk to that understands helps a lot. I get to end this school year on a happier note thanks to him. This is first time I am with someone who doesn't stress me out or argue with me about stupid things. He's getting his life together and I'm planning out mine. Once again I know it may sound corny to pick meeting my boyfriend as my most memorable moment but he means so much to me.
ReplyDeletealls i can remember is when i read on facebook that mrs. bucci had died. it wasnt too long ago when i was cuttting rose stems in the school store with her.. her explaining to me how cooperative and controlling i am with the reach students.. i havent noticed how amazing she was! it reallly took a toll on me because she was trying to give me little words of advice to set me straight and what path i should take in the future. mrs. walters always told me how she should have listened to her. you dont realize what u got till its gone, i know its corney but its the damn truth. she had made me realize what im capable of doing and what i like to do, so i figure i minus well listen to her and actualy look into getting me dagree in child development. i miss seeing her everyday third period, miss hearing her explain to mrs. walters how gorgeous i am and charming my smile was, and to never forget that people love you for who you are and not what you do. i will never forget this because its my most memerable moment im always going to rememner, just for the simple fact im revolving myself around her words.
ReplyDeleteLets se my most memorable moment was when i walked into oakcrest on september 7 as a senior in highschool i was just so proud of the fact that i had made it this far and that i havent given up yet but as this year went on i realized that i started to give up around the third marking period especially in english class and now im doing it again this is a very bad thing for me to be doing right considering we only hqve less than a month left of school and i need to pass english in order to graduate so now i feel ashamed about i said at the beginning of the year when i said i wouldnt give up but that i would have tosay is the most memorable moment of my senior year and when i do graduate hopefully i will not have that same attitude that ihad at the end of this year in college and in life because it is not a very good one to have
ReplyDeletemy most memorable moment in the 2010-2011 school year would be my experiencing it all with my girlfriend jasmine by my side. that is something i would definitely look back at in the future with her. we have been through it all and she has been there for me whenever i needed her most. she always stuck by my side and always held out her shoulder when i needed it most. she has pushed me to work harder and picked me up every time i fell. if it wasn't for her i wouldn't be where i am now. even though we do fight, in the end it doesn't matter its the love that we have for one another that counts. that is the one and only girl i want to spend the rest of my life with and i make sure she knows that everyday.i have made mistakes in my past but we looked past that and started of a new beginning and now it will be a year soon that we have been together. she wants us to have a good life in the future and pushes me to work harder because we both want to have a great life together. i want to make her happy and our children happy living a good life that we plan to have. that is why she is my most memorable moment because she is the reason why i can live up to expectations and work for a better life. thanks to you her talking to you Miss Bunje shes helping me and pushing me to work harder to pass your class. i told her it because its too hard but she told me that she will help me and i thank her because i know she cares and she would be doing all of this for me if she didnt. it because of her that im going to get this all done and pass your class because i want to make her happy and ofcoarse you (Miss Bunje) because i dont want to let you guys down because that is not the person that i am. this is definately more than 400 hundreds words =] i think.
