Semester Reflection

So yeah.... the first semester of my Junior year is over. I feel like I've grown more this semester than I did all of last year. I've also had lots of new experiences like visiting colleges and in the musical, I  was able to get a smaller lead with young Clyd. Another thing relating to music is my involvement with Arkhighs, which I have enjoyed a ton. Being able to sing to go to Butler for Show Choir Festival and just being able to learn more about my voice and own taste in music has been great and I can't wait for next semester's BVS. For me, high school sports sucked this semester because of my ankle and not making it to state. I'm super excited for track next semester seeing how I'm running 25 miles a week and I'm getting back down to normal times I feel like it's going to be a good track season for me and the distance team. As a student, I feel like this semester I was the most stressed out I have ever been thanks to AP Language and AP U.S History but I intend to stick both classes out through the second semester. Thanks to both classes I feel like I've improved when it comes to note-taking, annotating and just analyzing what's in front of me. Another thing that this semester has taught me is that I need to just go for things and stop hesitating. For example, I stopped worrying about what people would say about the songs I have been writing and I got great feedback and I know I'll keep writing more music and I would love to perform one of my own songs as soon as I get music to it of course. I think I might have matured this semester too. By which I mean I fill more ready right now than I ever have for next semester and after that. Though there are plenty of self-improvement I need to make. Most of them are small things like keeping a cool head when I get frustrated and not being so nosey. One of the bigger ones being I need to focus on what's right in front of me and what I can control. I look forward to next semester and hope it will improve me as much if not more than this semester. When I started this blog, in my mission statement I said I wanted to "be my best me" and I'm still not there and I doubt all be there at the end of next semester either because all learn about other things I need to improve on. I think we're always improving and I hope everyone has improved in different aspects of their life this semester and that they stick with the blog through the end of the year.
