Summer Plans


     
    In the summer, I am busy with softball, fair, I get to celebrate my birthday, I have basketball camps, and other small stuff. 
   I look forward to fair the most because I get to see my friends, and fair has a lot of different things to do. I am a 4-her so I have to work the Food Stand, show my projects, and I have to work the Exhibit Hall at least once. I love fair because my friends that aren't out for softball or anything I am involved in the summer, I get to see them at fair and they always look different! I love just being able to walk around fair and just talk to my friends. I also love riding the rides.
      On my birthday (June 26),  my family and I are going to be in our new built home. So I am hoping to have a lot of girls over to explore the new house! We will probably go swimming, like we always do, and we might have a campfire!
    This summer, I am going to do a lot of swimming and four wheeling!  I love being outside in the summer because my hair gets lighter and everyone gets tanner! Dad says that I am going to be outside twice as much once we get into the new house because it is all going to be new. Even though we won't have grass for another year!
    Another thing that I love about summer is softball games. I like playing in the hot weather, even though I can sometimes get headaches. Softball is a huge part of my summer. I love watching the tournaments! Mom used to work in the Concession Stand a lot, so I would always go with her to watch the games. I also love playing softball in the summer because at the end of the season, we always poor our water bottles on the coaches and we always have swim parties at Brooke's house because her pool is huge!
      In the summer, I am always practicing either basketball or volleyball because those are my two favorite sports! I am going to a Marion Camp this summer just to keep caught up on basketball, so when the season starts I won't be rusty and it gives me something to do! 
    Towards the end of summer I start wanting to go back to school because I miss my friends and I haven't seen different people in a long time. I also like seeing last years teachers and being able to talk to them!  I can't wait for seventh grade because you have many things to get involved in and you are known as the "big kids". But I don't look forward to the homework. My summer is pretty busy!

How I Want to Be Remembered

       When I graduate High School I want people to say, 'She was a good kid, a nice girl, very athletic, she deserves to go to college." Something like that is my goal. Being a High Schooler can be hard. Your friends change, you change and when I graduate I want to be happy and have a Scholarship and be attending a great college. By the time I graduate there may be different teachers and different principals, but I want to be able to see them smile or maybe even a tear as I finish my Senior year.
        Graduating is a big step but making it to a good college like, Stanford or Harvard, is even better. I am planning on going to either Mount Mercy or Iowa to be a Pediatrician and either play College Basketball or Volleyball. I love little kids and I want to be busy. In order to go that far and achieve that goal,  I need to work hard, get good grades, stay out of trouble, and be very determined. 
         Now, graduation Middle School isn't that hard because people always say High School ruined their life. Middle School people are just getting mature, or like adults. They are getting in relationships and going out to movies with friends. Parents usually are very laid back at this stage, and I want to be remember as a kid who went out with friends but didn't get into drugs or got in a bunch of trouble. Me? I can't wait until High School! I am excited for the sports getting more competitive and I can't wait until my friends and I can go hang out! Some people don't care how they are remembered they just want to get out there. I want to have a good reputation and when the Wildcats are playing at home I want to be a Wildcat again, so I will come visit! 
         Graduation can be very bitter sweet, it's a happy time because you're going to college and you've achieved so much throughout High School, but yet you don't want to leave your friends. Even now, I feel old. I'm going into seventh grade! I can only imagine how many people use that reason to stay. Graduation is one thing I won't forget. 
          When I graduate I want all of my classmates to miss me, I know I will miss them. I want my teachers from younger grades to be there so I can give them a big hug. 
         My reputation is important once I get into High School. I don't want to be a druggy student who doesn't get their homework done and who people doubt that I will get in College. I want to be the exact opposite. Leaving school should be hard for everyone who is a respectful and responsible student. That is how I want to be remembered.
