I will be a senior next year so I have been preparing for this schedule my entire high school. I noticed as an incoming senior I was not given as much as advice as the underclassmen and I also noticed I knew what I wanted. I am glad to have the freedom to leave early and have a flexible schedule next year. I wish there was a system that allowed people to give their guidance. Freshman should speak to sophomores, sophomores to juniors, and so on. It did not make sense to me that freshman were talking to seniors who have not taken those classes in a while and many things have changed.

Reading Resolutions

My resolution pertaining to books is to read more and to find books thats are more of my interest. I don't particularly like reading so maybe if I read books that I actually like I will be able to read more. I know all the benefits that reading has and I would like to gain from them. I could achieve this goal by going to the the library and take a closer look at the genre sections or even ask the librarian for some book suggestions. Reading more will make me a better reader obviously and allow me to read at a quicker pace and to understand the text as well.
