This is easy

9th grade

Join Jazz Band

Take Latin

Take AH English

Join FBLA
10th grade

Not take AH Chem

Not take Spanish 2/3
11th grade

Not take AP Chem

Take AP Psych instead

Take US History II Honors in the beginning of the year (I dropped out of AP before it counted on my record)

As a result of my screw-ups.


As an alto saxophone player, I missed two years of band classes. In fact, this year, my junior, I have to take Symphonic Band (rather than Wind Ensemble) because of AP Chem and its double lab periods. If I took Jazz Band… damn my options would have been endless. I could have taken Jazz Ensemble AND Wind Ensemble this year…
Spanish is kicking my ass. The 88 in 2/3 (my only middle B besides AH Chem… getting to that next) ruined my chances for Spanish Honor Society. That teacher could not teach…
I don’t even want to go to the medical field after I realized that, when I grow up, I shouldn’t just be what my parents want me to be. Too bad I decided that last month, and now it’s too late to drop AP Chem. At least I can still push for an A- in that class… but sophomore AH Chem was TERRIBLE, I nearly had my first C…
