Ending The First Semester

My school year this far has been pretty good, but of course I would go back and change things. First on my list would be to get out of art class. Drawing is not my artistic art form. I am a lot better at cooking and writing. I failed the class miserably, for many reasons. Again, I am not artistic in that sense.      Mr. Doughman taught me how to do the artwork, and I did understand. But I just couldn’t put it into action. And in my opinion, I didn’t have enough time to do it. I would take projects home, but I’m not going to let that take over my entire night. I also had math homework, which is another thing I would like to change. The first quarter started out great for me, but then it just fell to pieces. I had joined The Stunt & Cheer Team, and also the school’s musical. I enjoyed both of them very much, (and I recommend joining them to any new freshmen next year) but I started to lose focus on my homework. I couldn’t understand it all the time, even if I did ask questions in class, and then I couldn’t turn it in. by the end of the quarter, I realized something had to change. So before school would start, and I still had problems, I would come in and get help. My teachers were always more than happy to help me. What I have learned this year about myself, is that I can do whatever I set my mind to, but I have to make sure I put forth my best effort to succeed.
