Academic Success

Today is my last day of English. The only thing that will take place is writing a reflection about the last essay- and possibly about what we learned from taking the class. I don't think this is going to be a hard day at all; it'll actually be fun for a change. Last days of school are usually a lot of fun, anyway. . . so this shouldn't be any different from other academic years- during elementary school, high school, and my first year or so of college- at Roosevelt University, of course.
I think that this semester was awesome. I have finally "overcome" my academic struggles. At least, I certainly hope so. If I've successfully improved academically, I hope that I can do just as well next school year. I certainly won't give up trying to acheive the goals that I set for myself, and I won't let anyone else try to tell me that I won't be able to acheive academic victory- because of the challenges my disability has given me all my life.

My Interesting Life As a Student

Springfield, Illinois, United States
I'm living in Springfield, but I'm originally from Chicago. I am now living in a group home for people who are visually impaired. Living at the Mary Bryant Home has been a huge step in my life. I am now able to get involved in activities every day. I am making lots of new friends, and I'm enjoying living with my new family. Since I'm the youngest person, I feel like I have lots of parents and grandparents, and even my best friend, who is like a big sister, to spend my time with. I don't think I'd change this for anything else in the world.
