I’ll miss being able to see friendly
faces in the hallways and having
in-school responsibilities. I will miss the interactions. I had such AMAZING
teachers that helped pick me up when I was down
and inspired me to do my very best. I struggled
throughout the year but having to push myself to the
very limits and eventually succeed has left me more
than satisfied.
Galveston, because I had the
opportunity to go on a cruise. It
was a new experience and gave
me a new perspective of the
ocean. Summer 2016. Aruba and Bonaire. Crystal-clear,
blue seas and sandy, white beaches. If I had the
chance to go back, I definitely would.
I look forward to going to
Universal Studios in Florida this
summer! It won’t be my first time
out of the state, but Florida is
always somewhere I wished to go! Spending time with family and friends, playing
in a Sunday soccer league. There are some new
movies and attractions that I would not mind
seeing/visiting either. Whatever it is, I am excited
and ready to go have fun.
I’d like to go to L.A., specifically
around Hollywood. It’s always
caught my eye…the views, the
city and the recognition it has. I would choose to travel to Vietnam. As someone of
Vietnamese descent, I would love to visit the country
that my parents grew up in. I want to be able to
understand the true difficulties of what my parents
went through and to understand my “roots”.
Taking all the opportunities I can
to help out my school and be
able to help students too. I also
look forward to learning more
about my favorite subjects, like
science and English! Graduating and moving on to college, seeing
and talking to friends, and exploring new things.
I look forward to improving myself, my skills and
character. I will continue pursuing my dreams and
pushing myself. I am ready for the ’18-19 school
year, but of course…I am going to enjoy summer
as long as I can!
