Hi my name is Harnoor and I am a freshman here at our high school, “Class of 2014”. I am a person that you might remember in a couple years as a competitive person. For me life is like a race. I don't know why but I love to compete. Like other incoming freshman’s I have many goals in a wide range of areas, starting from academics to college.

First of all, I want to make the JV or Varsity BHS Soccer Team. As you may know it is not easy to make a JV or Varsity team. To make a JV or Varsity soccer team has been one of my dreams since I was a little kid. I will give it my best shot to make my goal come true. Second of all, I want to get a 4.0 GPA or higher. I want to get a 4.0 GPA or higher in all of my 4 years, because I want to make my parents and my sister proud of me. Currently, those are my main two goals. But, I have many other goals as well. For example, I want to stay friends with my current friends, I also want to make new friends. Another goal I want to achieve is to make this the best year ever, mostly because my sister Sukhpreet goes to the same school as I do now.

“Family” whenever I hear that word I think about the good times I have had with my mom, dad, and sister. Family means a lot to me. Without my sister I wouldn’t be where I am today. We have had good times and bad times, but one thing I will always remember is that I can always count on her. She will always have my back and I will always have hers. We grew up so fast that I want to make it last while we are still young. This is most likely one of my most important goals.

"College" my family and I have been talking about going to college since my sister was a freshman 3 years ago. Everyday..... literally everyday we talk about going to college. I know, my sister knows that to achieve the goals we want to achieve in life we have to go to college. Our dreams are going to stay dreams if we don't go to college. The colleges I want to attend are UC Berkeley,UC Davis,UCLA,or UCSD. Most likely their are many more colleges that I don't know about that I would probably want to attend.

Overall, “GOALS” are something that you will always have. It doesn’t matter if you’re a kid or an adult, you will always have goals. By the way if you have any questions just come say, “Hi”. I won’t mind. See you in the hallways.
