My name is Jackie Q and I am a freshman here at our high school in the class of 2014. I laugh at almost any stupid thing. I like to listen to music and hang out with my friends (: Dancing is my passion and I am totally committed to it. I am Very Social and I will blurt out anything at any moment, you may find me shy at some point but I’m just a crazy 14 year old girl. Movies can be life-changing and inspiring. When I grow up I want to go to a good college and have a good career that I have yet to choose from. I have many goals and I am determined to accomplish all of them or at least most of them.

I have many goals that I would like to accomplish in my freshman year. Academics are really important to me and they are a big part of my life which is why I chose AVID and a high school that is an AVID demonstration school. One of my goals is to get good grades throughout high school. Next year I would like to take a challenge and try to be in as many honors classes as possible. I want to pass Algebra 1 with an A and move onto geometry. I would like to get into honors English next year. I would like to go to college, so I want to get my A-G requirements. I want to graduate high school with honors and throughout high school at least maintain a 3.5 GPA.

My goals for my family are to not be nicer to them and spend more time with them(: I want to make my parents proud and get impressive grades throughout high school. I am going to stay in this school for them and not transfer out because I know I am in this school for a reason and it’s what is best for me. My oldest brother Chris is awesome and I love him so much! We never argue or fight and we have so many things in common. My 2nd oldest brother is Sal Jr. We argue majority of the time and mostly never get along. My Little sister is Emily and she can be a pain, but without her I would be very lonely all the time. I also have a dog named maxy and she is amazing!! I love my family and even though I don’t show it, they mean the world to me.

Now onto my Friends(: I have many many friends that it is incredibly amazing!! First off I’m looking forward to making new friends here. The other is to stay in touch with my friends from BHS. My friends from BHS that I would like to stay in touch with are Vivi, Frankie, Liz, and Jessie(: I hope I can stay in touch with all of them, and four years from now I can still mention them as being the greatest people I have ever met. Middle school is where I met all of these kids and they are what made 8th grade year the best school year yet!(: I love them all as if they were my brother & sisters(:

Athletics!! Okay, I have many goals for athletics. First, I want to become more flexible by the end of the year and be able to do the splits again. Second, I want to become a better athlete and become a better runner. Third, I want to gain more muscle in my body. Fourth, I want to attempt to try out for a sport for my sophomore year. Possibly Track, Cross Country, Cheerleading, Softball, or soccer. And the last one would be start going to the gym more often. If I would accomplish all of these goals that would mean a lot!!

All of these goals are very attempting to accomplish and I would be very proud of myself if I did. They all need time and patience to be done right. All goals that I mentioned are very important to me and I listed them all for a reason. If I accomplished all of these goals it would be amazing!! My last goals that are actually a dream of mine is to become a professional dancer and move to New York to perform in Recitals. I would also like to learn French throughout high school and move to France with my oldest Brother, Chris(: Well until then, Bye (:
