I’ve kept telling myself that high school is going slow. Now that my senior year is here, it is almost a shock that I’m getting ready to graduate. Words cannot describe the amount of senioritis that I have! Looking back on it now, what good advice would you give to a freshman just entering high school? When Mr. Crawford tells you that dimensional analysis will be one of the most important things you learn in high school, take him seriously or it will come back to haunt you. Who has the most impact on the person you have become and why? My parents and grandparents have had a huge impact on the person that I am now. Being able to grow up around my grandparents and spending time with them has been really great. I’m going to miss all of my grandma’s home cooking! If you had one day to do absolutely anything you wanted, how would you spend it? I would get all of my favorite athletes, celebrities, and influential figures together and spend all day with them, getting to know them and getting their autographs so I could sell them on EBay for money when my dream day was over.
