Let's see what's new with me. Oh, yes, I am now a high school graduate. I am done with high school, but without a doubt, I already miss my fellow high schoolers. We did it all. I wouldn't rather have it any other way, but oh well, we cannot stop progress. For a fact, we'll run into each other real soon someday.
So let me see what's new. For one, I am going to college. For once, I am going to listen to my mom. She is known for making poor decisions, especially when they pertain to me, but right now, I'm not going to worry about that. I really wanted to go to Marymount Manhattan College, but maybe it's time to be real. I'm not even paying for the school, financial aid is. My tuition is covered. But if what my mom says is true and I get the unused money back, then I can save that up for NYU, which is my main priority. So I will be heading to the College of Staten Island for one year instead. I am actually psyched about it because I love the commute between Staten Island and Brooklyn/Manhattan, and unlike my friends, I actually like Staten Island. But NYU is where I WILL be in sophomore year, trust me.
My GPA for Term 4 came up to be a 2.9, how, I don't know. I thought it was supposed to be higher and better than that. I am a little disappointed with myself, as I really wanted to go out in style, with grades that were off the wall. But hey, at least my rank is within the top 20, and at a recent awards banquet (where I received some awards and more money for college), 19 other kids and I got recognized for it, so it's all good. I am content with that.
What's new? Oh, yes! I am getting my Advanced Regents Diploma!!! After FOUR attempts, I got a 66 on my Math B Regents, and I also took the Latin Regents; I got a 79.
I am good to go! Phase 1 of my life is complete! (That was to graduate high school with a top award.) Phase 2.1 is complete: get into college. All I need to do is complete Phase 2.2, which is to get to NYU, and complete Phase 3, which is to pursue my career in filming and make my own TV show! Then my life will be complete. Stay tuned!
