Sophomore, you only get to be it one time, unless you fail classes, but I haven’t. As a sophomore people expect you to live life, show youngsters ( freshman) how to act, and be responsible for your own work and take responsibilities for your own actions.

This year as a 10th grader I learned many things, it’s hard not to learn something new about anything, school, friends, etc. In the beginning of the year I got chorus. I didn’t like it, the teacher started singing and I was like no I don’t want to be in this class, I don’t like opera music. In that class there was another girl that was really, really loud so all you could hear sing was her, so no one really had a chance to show their voice. Until finals day we all had to find a song and sing it, wow I was so nervous, but I did really good, well at least I think I did. And being in that class, even though I didn’t like it I learned how you’re supposed to stand to project a beautiful and loud sound.

Since 1st grade I have always been a really good student, always had good grades never had F’s or D’s or C’s I was always either a straight A student or A and B student. But this year I had so much trouble in 1 of my classes, geometry. It was the hardest class I could ever have. For the longest semester ever I thought I was going to die! In that semester I was stuck with a D, which was not good. When the report card would come and my parents would see it I would get so embarrassed, instead of being sad I was embarrassed. Getting A’s and B’s is a really big deal for me because I want to go to college and getting C’s and D’s won’t really get me there. So I decided to work extra hard in that class. And by working harder I got to a B. By having the geometry class I learned how to take responsibilities for my work and for the things I do, because I leaned that your parents can only do so much, which is talk to your teachers and see what you have missing, but that doesn’t really help, I learned how to be organized with my work. This helped me a lot because I know for a fact that I will be very successful in life.

And we can’t forget this class. Since I was a little girl I have always loved to read and write. My mom would buy me books like every week because I would read them in 1 day or 2. Before this class I would love to write but I never really did it I was really lazy. But when they gave me this class I learned to love not like love writing. I love the way I write poems and quotes and essays. I learned to love my own writings. I have asked really smart friends to read my blog and they tell me that I’m a really good writer. This class is my favorite because I learn how to improve my writing.

Sophomore year is a year to shine in the places you have never thought you could shine. It’s also the time to learn and have fun.
