The first thing is trying to get straight A's. I had straight A's for a while in middle school but as the classes got harder I started getting lower grades. My hardest subject to get an A in is math. I hope to improve in that class, and I hope to at least get through two quarters with all A's.
The second thing I want to do is to be more social. I'm not very outgoing around new people or people I don't know. My old school was very small and I've been there since I was three, so I was very comfortable, outgoing, and social there. But now that I'm in a bigger school and in a lot of classes without friends I'm super close to, its harder for me to be that way. I want to come out of my shell a little bit and meet new people.
The third thing is I want to join a sport. I never was really too into sports but I've been thinking about lacrosse and I'm thinking of trying out for it in the spring.
The fourth thing I want to do is become a better writer. I really like writing, and I hope that here at John Carroll I can improve my writing skills and come up with new ideas for books or short stories.
The fifth and final thing I want to accomplish this year is get more involved with fine arts. One of my favorite hobbies is drawing, I have many sketchbooks at home and I do it a lot to pass the time and I like thinking of new things I can make. I hope I can find some new techniques or ideas here, and learn a lot more about art and what it is. I want art to be a hobby that I continue to do for a long time. I also may want to try and help out with the theater productions, or helping with costumes or sets for it too. I want to get more involved in the fine arts department and improve my drawing a lot this year.
These are five major things I hope to do in my freshman year here at John Carroll.
All your goals are pretty commendable, and, even better, they all sound do-able. I can see you having a great time at JC with the plan you have set up for yourself!
