My name is Jason S, and I’m going to graduate from this high school in the class of 2014. For some reason I have a horrible memory for all things except movie lines. I’m glad to be out of middle school and look forward to being in high school and going to college. I’m look

The first thing I’ll talk about is academics. I really want to join the Bio-Science academy, but I need to level my overall grades first. Obviously I want to graduate and go to college, but let’s start with my regular classes. I want to become a better English and Geography student; I want to finish both classes with at least B’s. My other classes are a lot of fun and I expect nothing less than A’s in those. I really want to take advantage of my EDA class, you can aplly to colleges there, learn what you need to go to college, and find money and scholarships in the college systems.

Now let’s talk about my family goals. My parents provide for me and love me, so I need to be better to them. I’ve been pretty lazy, but I want to be a better, less tired, cranky, annoyed son. My brother has also been having some problems in his high school years and I want to help him more with making the right choices. I have some power to help, I want to start going out of my way to use it. My grandparents are also becoming increasingly more attached to me and my brother, and they have every right to. A phone call to them every once in a blue moon isn’t enough anymore.

My social goals are a big aspect in my life. I want to stay in touch with my old, new, and yet to be made friends after high school. I still haven’t heard from an old friend who goes to BHS, and I need to get back in touch. And of course there’s always a girl. She’s incredible, I’m not, and I will change that. I also want to open my mind to possibilities of my “image”. I’m done with being the cool guy, I want to find out who I really am. Clothes, styles, fads, ect are no longer important to me.

An equally big part in my life is my physical health and activity. I want to keep playing water polo and hopefully try wrestling too. Later in life, I want to stay active: going to gyms, running, ect. Maybe I could take my high school sports further as well. My main physical event for later on in life will be playing in the four-man Dolphin beach volleyball tournament in Seal Beach. I never want to be overwheight again, and I will see to it that it doesn't happen.

To wrap things up, all these goals will be achieved through hard work and determination. I don't want to achieve these goals, I will achieve them. I hope to see all you new freshman next year.
