You are about to enter your last semester as students at Colfax High School. What are your thoughts and feelings about this? Are you concerned about making it on your own next year? Discuss!
Um, well I am pretty excited to get out of the high school atmosphere. I have heard that college is a lot better than high school so I want to see if that statement is really true. I am a little scared too because I will not be living with my parents, and that will definately be different for me. I am used to seeing my mom and dad pretty much everyday, and when I am in college I won't be able to do that. I remember always saying that I couldn't wait to get out of the house, but now that I am almost out of the house it is a little scary. I will definately miss my parents when I am gone at college. I am not concerned too much about making it on my own next year because I am only going to eau claire next year which isn't that far away so if I need anything, I can always get ahold of my parents if I need to. =)
OMG!!! I'm so excited! I remember sitting in my elementary classrooms and counting the years until i would graduate. It's wierd thinking that it is already here. I am so excited to move to green bay next year and start over. It will be a fun adventure. My parents of course don't want me to leave, but at the same time they are very excited for me. I'm excited to expand my group of friends and meet my new roomate! UGh! It's gunna be soo much fun!
I am very excited to graduate and beable to live on my own and make my own choices and decisions. I will deffintely miss highschool and the athletics, but I think its time for me to growup and be on my own. I think River Falls will be a lot of fun for me!
The fact that we are entering our last semester in Colfax is kind of depressing and exciting at the same time. Colfax school has been a big part of my life since I was six years old. There are a lot of people and activities that I will miss incredibly. I'm definately going to miss high school a lot. The fact that this is almost the end makes me sad.
However, at the same time, entering a new chapter in life will be fun and exciting. Lately, it feels like life is too much the same day to day; so much so that I sometimes forget what we've done in school. That is probably the biggest reason why I'm excited for college. It will be new, fresh, and more interesting. I will have a lot of fun learning at a higher level and preparing for a career. My biggest concerns entering college involve friendships. I don't want to "just forget" about my high school friends like so many people do. David and I will be together at Stout, but I hope we can stay connected with all our high school friends, along with making new ones.
ok, well...I am excited, yet I am content where I am. I know that I will miss all my friends and, I mean, I have been in this building for 13 years and I know I will miss all of the "high school fun stuff" (sporting events, homecoming, prom, wintercarnival ect.).
Though, I think I will be nervous at first I think UWRF will be fun, especially since Amanda is comign with :). I am sure I will call my parents often, and "stalk" many people on facebook and what-not.
The only thing that I won't miss about high school is the drama, though there is bound to be drama everywhere you go, hopefully it will be less out-in-the-open and less in-your-grill.
I will probably call home more often then I should, but Nichelle will be there, so there will be a little piece of home there with me.
Oh, yea and did I mention that Amanda is gonna be my rooooomie!. :)That make me less nervous because I don't have to worry about a crazy, mean roommate.
Anyway I am actually pretty sad to be leaving high school. I love being able to see everyone, and our school just feels like a big family to me. We all support eachother when things go good or bad, and I juist feel so welcome and apart of something really great here. Being in school for 12-13 years together has brought us so close that I am sad to see us breaking apart. I know I will do everything I can to keep in contact but I know that our little "family" is growing up and growing apart.
I am really excited for college though, I have been looking forward to it since I was a kid. I have always known I have wanted to go to college. I can not wait to be on my own, and do things for myself.
I am not really that nervous about being away from home. Though I will miss my parents and my sister very much, I have been givin the oppertunity to spred my wings a little bit and be away from home. I have spent a summer in Colorado without my parents (though I was with other family it was my first time not having mom and dad around), then I went to Europe again without my parents, and then this year I went to Florida with another family. All of these experiences have been stepping stones, during them I was responsible for myself, though I had people that were close to me there, I did not rely on them like I rely on my own parents. I am excited to see how I do on my own!
I have had a lot of fun in my high school career at Colfax but I am ready for a change. Four years of high school seemed like a millenium when I was an upcoming freshman. Now looking back, it went by much quicker than I had expected. I am not concerned with next year because I will be living at home and going to UWEC. If living at home gets old, I will probably set up something that I can get out of the house, but for now I am quite content with the home life(Mainly because I can step off of my back porch and go hunting!) It's all good.
My last semester as a Colfax highschooler should be pretty sweet. I think it will be lots of fun and filled with excitement. It's neat that our class is so small and close, I think that it will make graduation a lot more intense. I've always felt kind of stuck in this small town so I'm excited to finally leave for a while and check out some different places. I'm not worried about being on my own at all. I understand there will be hard times, especially with the expenses of college, but they can always be worked through.
I am estatic about beginning my journey. I'm excited for the things I will be experiencing on my own. It will be different and maybe even hard at times, but I believe it is important to be independent. I value the education and memories that I had at Colfax High School, but I'm not sad to go. I always knew that there was more than just high school, and that high school was just a preparation for the bigger things in life. I know that my journey will not be easy all of the time, but that is what kind of makes it exciting; not knowing what is going to happen and where I will end up.
I'm super excited to be starting my last semester of high school! I always think that the second semester is the most fun because of the musical, forensics, and track. I'm also excited for next year. I think that I'm ready to be off on my own! It'll be a big change, but I'm excited for it. But I will miss seeing all my friends. :( I do know from experience what it will be like in a way, since I have switched schools a couple times. It's always scary at first to do something new, but it ususally turns out to be a lot of fun!!
Yeah, times flying pretty fast here. This next semester's gonna go just as fast, if not faster than the first! My feelings are neutral. While I'm excited to move on and go where I'm lead, the reality is also setting in . Not only being away from home, but taking on new friends, new teachers, and a new school will be an experience within itself. This next semester I'm just gonna try to make the most of it, leaving with no regrets. Work hard, encourage/uplift, and have fun. Just remember whatever next year holds for us will be what we make it. Go get em' guys!
AW! This is so sad! I've always imagined what it would be like to be so close to graduation, but now it's actually here! I'm happy that I will know people at River Falls (Dani!) - that's really comforting. But I'm gonna have a hard time being away from my parents. I'll more than likely cry - I'm not even kidding! :( I, like everyone else, will miss the comforting and familiar environment of high school, but hey, we've all got to grow up sometime, so I think that we should all make the best of this new and exciting adventure! But let's still keep in touch, okay? :)
