My Plans for the New Year

I will be referencing Karen Kallas's blog assignment for this article.



The year 2015 brings many exciting things with it. It is the year I will graduate high school, enter college and move away from my family. This year is one of the most important years and a major mark in the rights of passage. This year not only determines many future aspects but also builds a strong foundation for all future activities. However to insure I continue down the path I want to go down I must make a few goals.


  1. I will spend at least 2 hours a week researches different colleges. The reason I am going to do this is so that I can gain an understanding of the different options I have and learn about colleges that offer majors in what I am interested in.
  2. I will maintain my grade of a high B and strive for an A in my AP English IV class. I will do this buy completing all assignments in not only a timely manner but also by giving my absolute best work.
  3. This semester I will strive to have close to perfect attendance by scheduling all trips on school breaks. If I am able to have good attendance I will not have to take my semester finals and it will make my high school transcript look nice.




I have currently been accepted to Texas A&M University Corpus Christi. I am in the process of applying for an apartment/dorm but am waiting on my mother's tax return so I can fill out my financial aid paperwork. College requires a lot of responsibility so setting and keeping these goals will help me prepare for the transition of high school into college.
