I tend to ponder too much. I always ask myself, where does time go? It almost feels like life started moving faster. I look back and think about when I was little. The days where all I was worried about was going to play outside. The days where I would pose to take pictures with my closest cousin.
I am so grateful to have those memories captured as I am able to look back at them. Realizing that now I am a whole different person from the way I look to the way I think.
School has taught me so much.
Beginning school not knowing English was definitely very challenging but it really taught me to be strong and always try my best.
As time moves forward I see that sometimes all you have to do is keep going and trust the process.
All throughout my school life I would feel really unsure about my work, but look at me. I am so close to graduation which is sad to say as it is getting closer to the end of high school.
Although there were times where things got hard, it was all worth my effort.
I feel so proud because of how far I have made it.
It is crazy to think that high school is only a section of life as I have my whole life to live ahead of me.
So many memories were made with many new people around me. Learning to adjust to a social life was definitely new to me. I made new friendships and also lost some, but it is all part of the journey.
Overall my high school experience could have been better but I am just glad it is over as I will start doing new things in life, such as college.
I daydream about my future and things like my dream house/life. Thinking about things like these is what keeps me going and gives me motivation.
One of my greatest things that motivates me is my mom. She has always been such a hard worker and I just admire her so much. I look up to her because even after she has gone through so much, she still cares for my siblings and I as if there was no tomorrow.
Everything I do is for her because I want to be successful and make her proud. I want to see my mom smile as I walk the night of graduation.
All I hope for is to be successful as I have tried my best starting from preschool until now graduating high school. I know that the same little me that kicked the teacher and ran away from preschool on the first day, as I was scared, is looking up to me right now smiling as I am progressing in life.
