Hey guys, guess what? This is the last assigned blog for the school year! I will have one more free blogs after this, and after that, blogs are done until next year! I will be keeping this blog for next year, and hopefully, upgrading it a little. More info, improved banner, ext. Anyways, this week's blog is about the unexpected surprises I have had during this school year. I've found out none could be directly faced on Media, since I have experienced all that jazz last year, so lets see what else have surprised me.
Firstly, I did not expect to make so many new friends. Last year at the Family Night, I was the small fish in a big pond. Next year, I'll be the big fish in the big pond. Anyway, I was looking up to the 7th graders, because they knew what they were doing, and when I saw the new students at Family Night, I didn't know any of them that were there. And now, a year later, I know them all, and some, I am good friends with.
Secondly, I didn't expect to have so much responsibility thrown at me as a returning student. Last year, I was a new student, and I was getting used to doing minimum work, and getting good grades. Now, as the returning student, it is the complete opposite . I have to do a lot of the work, while my partner does minimum work. I didn't expect to do a lot of work, but having Tristen as a partner, I got a lot more than expected.
Lastly, I wasn't expecting to not go on the STN Trip. Last year, I went to Orlando, Florida with the other kids on STN. This year, I ended up not going. At first, it was because my parents were expecting my sister to visit from California to get away from College on vacation. Well, she ended up running out of money sooner than we thought. So she ended up staying at our house a month or so before they left. I missed all the fundraisers, and pretty much all the scheduling. On top of that, my parents didn't want to pay $3,000 on such sort notice. So I still didn't go. Thanks sister. I think I am going next year to Atlanta (I think that's where it is) But I still am not sure.
In conclusion, those are three things I didn't expect to happen this year in Media. Hopefully, next year, I am surprise ready, and enjoying my last year. But, you never know what is lying around the corner. Bye!
