reflecting on my first year

  • by Aeowyn

my grade 9 year

Overall, my grade 9 year coming into high school has been a very enlightening experience. I feel that I have matured mentally and learned many things. one lesson that I have come to learn is to never judge a book by its cover. multiple times this year I judged people so hard at first glance, but now everyone that I judged ended up becoming my friend. I judged one of my now closest friend.

my favorite website

my favorite website is “my avatar maker”. Avatar Maker – Create your own avatar online this is one of my favorite websites because, it’s meant for school so nobody can get mad at me if I’m on it, and its sort of leaning toward the side of being a game.

my favorite video

Last semester in math class my teacher showed me and my class an inspiring YouTube video about a girl’s life experiences and how she overcame her trials. I thought it was so inspirational, so, ever since, I have been watching one of these life advice videos every time I need encouragement, and this video is one of my favorites.

my favorite image

This is one of my favorite photos from tik Tok because of the feelings it gives off. it gives pushing through life even though there might be rain and making the best of it. this relates to school because people as students should apply this to their lives. things may be hard in the moment but if you push through and actually try then you might find it fun.

my favorite quote

“a person is only limited by the thoughts that he chooses” – quote by James Allen

I chose this quote because it applies to not only life but school too. most people have a problem with procrastination but like in the quote we are only limited by the thoughts we choose. it may be hard but making the choice is the first step to success.
