Blog #3 - Sophmore Year is Over - Brittany Fulcher

So this is honestly just gonna be a short rant since it is two in the morning and I can not sleep. Can you believe we are gonna be juniors once summer is over.  That is wild. It honestly feels like I just read The Outsiders and spent my summer writing in a journal over the book. I feel like it was just yesterday when we had to run thirty laps, maybe 20 sprints, and a whole bunch more in basketball practice during seventh grade because some people did not run all five laps before practice. It would not  have been so bad if it was not for the boys not practicing that day. They all just sat around and watched us suffer. It also feels like it was not long ago when my group in elementary would spend every recess playing kickball or basketball. Elementary seemed to drag on but now everything is going by so fast I can barely keep up. I’ve made new friends along the way. I have also lost some friends or just grown apart from them. Over the course of being in junior high and sophomore year, I learned I need to apply myself better. I am not a bad student, but I have to work harder for my grades. In elementary, I never studied or did anything extra out of class, and made all A honor roll the entire time. Now I have to study or else I’m going down like a sinking ship. It’s only like thatcher for some subjects though. Math is pure torture. This year I made my first F in Mr. Conner’s class. I knew I wasn’t bad at math, but that was shocking. Actually is really wasn’t. Guys, we only have two years left, then we are done. Can you believe that? Because I sure can’t. Honestly I can barely remember the beginning of the school year. I do know it was a good one despite the tears and late nights I spent working on assignments because of procrastinating. I have so many good memories to look back on. Sophomore year was one for the books. I succeeded by meeting all my deadlines in yearbook, AP World History, and CBA. I cannot say the same for coding, that was a complete train wrecks from the start. You can ask Lexi Hall, Kaitlyn, or Makayla.

I’m gonna stop now because I’m pretty sure this is plenty. -Brittany Fulcher

  1. The first part of this had me laughing so hard about the basketball part. Cause Ih my it feels like yesterday we were all playing and I miss it so much. Speaking of the outsiders that book was sooo good. It was fun to read cause then we watched the movie and I was super happy about that.i remember when we had recess and I miss it so much too. Now days I feel like I’m always cramped up inside, and going outside is for after school. We used to play everything from basketball, to kickball, tag, volleyball, and fake high school musical under this huge tree we had. Just throwing this obvious statement out there, but HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL IS NOTHING LIKE THE REAL THING:)) just saying. Conner classes always stressed me out and if always be late to teels cause I never finished my test on time. MSA let me tell ya 11:59 every time... relatable so much. // -Grace Anne

  2. Honestly, I can relate to this so much. I guess it didn't hit me until recently. For me, it is really scary to think about it. In less than two years, we are going to be adults. Some of us are going to college and we are expected to get a job and a house and bills. All of the responsibilities of living in the real world are going to be put on us. At the same time, it is kind of exciting. I've always liked to think of myself as independent, to a certain extent, of course. We are so close. - Heavyn Hadl
