Reflecting On My First Year

My Grade 9 Year

My first year at Centennial was very different then any other year. I experienced a roller coaster of emotions this year. In the beginning of the year it was fun to be here and I was enjoying the schedule, as well as hanging out with my friends. But during the middle it got harder for me and the work I got was piling, I was really stressed and it took me a while to finish everything. Now it is already May, and the end of the year is nearing. Things have gotten much better and easier as I have found a way to manage my time and adjust to the new environment, as well as being able to ask more questions about when I am confused. I am looking forward to my next few years at Centennial and the challenges to come.

My Favorite Website

I chose Amazon as my favorite website because you can find almost anything for cheaper than what you would find in actual stores. I like how there are so many options for the same item, and how the reviews can tell if the description of the object is telling the truth or not.

I also chose YouTube because it helped me get through science this year. I’ve always struggled with science and after discovering the Amoeba Sisters on YouTube, I was able to understand biology a little better. And again, like Amazon, I can almost always find the results that I asked for.

My Favorite Video

This is the video that helped me understand Mitosis when I was super confused about it when I had a test just a few days away. I re-watched this video over ten times and now, I almost have every single word said in the video memorized.

My Favorite Image

This is a picture of my cat she was two months old. I got her as a gift for my birthday last year, and am now using it as my lock screen wallpaper on my phone.

My Favorite Quote

“The way I see it, If you want the Rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.” -Dolly Parton

I chose this quote because immediately, the one thing that came to my mind immediately was my report card. I think that one of the main reasons that I go to school is for my future and because a report card tells you how you are doing in school at the moment, depending on my results, I think about how I should keep doing things and what I should do different so I can do well in whatever I want to do in my future. So when I saw, this quote, I thought about all the work I had done this year and why I did it, even though it stressed me out so much. And the reason I did all the work was because I wanted to see good results in my report card.
