Miscellaneous Post!



I read on one of my blog posts that Jenn wanted me to post about my high school years. But before I do that I will just throw in this picture here and this picture too! Well if you are lost on the pictures....read my past posts. I might just do something that will shock everyone......write a long post. I am sure that during my high school years I have changed a lot.

  • In 8th grade I was in the same school as my sister who was a Senior at the time. I was sure that I wasn't cool because I was always considered "Jessica's sister". Some of you know what I am talking about. Also in 8th grade I was around for the September 11th tragedies. I also passed all of my classes.
  • In 9th grade I was a loner because I couldn't depend on my sister to help me anymore. I was the only ANDREWS left in the Fairmont High School. I was to depend on my self and me only. I am sure that I enjoyed 9th grade. I also passed all of my classes.
  • In 10th grade I was able to move down to the Senior High Locker areas. It was so much fun because I got to be around all of the other older kids. I also was struggling in all of my classes. I had failed American History and Biology all in the 2nd Semester.
  • In 11th grade I was able to take my American History and Biology classes again and PASS THEM! I was also able to be a teachers aide in the Biology class because of the assignment was against my religious beliefs and I had also done it the year before. On April 28th, 2005, I was baptized at my local Church, Calvary Baptist Church.
  • In 12th grade I was able to do my classes just fine and then I was able to GRADUATE! I am still in classes until the 16 days are up and then I am as free as "Free Willy"! I am so excited to finally be done with High School.

Most of you don't know the struggles I have had with school. During my high school years I was always wanted to get sick so I didn't have to go. Now I realize that its super important to go to school. If there anyone who looks at this and doesn't want to go to school should realize that if you don't go you will miss out on some serious homework. I think that I should stop so I can go to bed. Its like 11:00 pm! Enjoy the reading and put some comments.
