High School Musical

possible at my school. I believe my experiences of stepping outside of my comfort zone and pursuing interests outside of the ordinary have given me a foundation on which to build the next level of my education. I am a three sport athlete, a straight-A student, an active volunteer in youth sports, and a section leader in my high school band. From the beginning, I have always been involved in sports and band, but as high school has progressed I have become more involved in my school. I…

When recounting the past four years, I find that I am proud of half of that time, and embarrassed of the other. When thinking back to my first year of high school, I cringe in disappointment at the recollection of my younger self. I was the stereotypical teenager- I held no regard to important things in life, but instead lived for pleasure, making horrible choices along the way. However, since then I have undergone a long, treacherous journey that I can thank for my complete transformation. I…

“Dreaming Big” For my entire life, I have always been a dreamer. I fantasized about everything under the sun. Imagining clouds tasting like cotton candy and pet tigers on aureate leashes. I would also dream “realistically” about starring in High School Musical, becoming an international Pop Star like Beyoncé, or having a private limo. Needless to say, I have a lot of hope and imagination (sometimes a bit too much). I’ve always had it, and that is why my strength is my weakness. I struggle with…

your family. Plenty of my friends would disagree with me because they actually really want to live without their family when they finish high school. Most of them say the reason they want to live by themselves is because at some part of your life you’re going to have your own family which also means living by yourself. Therefore, living by yourself after high school would be a great opportunity because you need to be able to learn and experience it. Living by yourself is very tough and scary.…

ends up befriending everyone in school. Well, that girl is me, except I don’t get the boy or the insane popularity or the happy ending, not yet anyway. Maybe my life will find some parallels to those typical high school movies, but that time isn’t now. Moving definitely decreased my chances of that ever happening and transformed my perspective on the world around me to this day. I am a person who never liked change, so moving away from my friends and going to a new school was devastatingly…

day at Bremen High School. I have gained new friends, and created life- long friendships. I have been pushed in every aspect, from softball to academics; each area has made me a better person. I have learned that no matter what I want in life; I can achieve it through hard work and dedication. This chapter in my life has flown by way faster than I ever thought it would. As much as I hate to end this chapter, I know I am more than ready for future. I can never thank Bremen High School enough for…

inside. I longed for something that would give me a sense of satisfaction like I was actually accomplishing something when I completed it, but what would do that for me? I remember sitting in Mrs.Daniels class in my fifth grade year of elementary school. Mrs.Daniels stood up and had announced to the class we would be given one of two choices. The…

The musical I went to was “Heathers; The Musical”, lyrics and music by Kevin Murphy and Laurence O’Keefe. Which is about a high school girl named Veronica Sawyer who was nobody until one day, three of the popular girls at her high school decided to she would fit perfect with them. Funny thing was that they were all named Heather. After being whisked away from her boring life and put into the Heather click, she meets a boy named JD who she falls in love with. Veronica, later in the year,…

with (Detrick “Components of Music”). I have always loved to sing, and was an alto in my high school choir. Being an alto, I was always assigned the harmony. I have grown to have an obsession with harmonizing, and it is now easier for me to pick out the harmony that the melody, which feels awkward to sing. I am willing to expand my musical exposure, yes. I had an amazing choir teacher all throughout high school that worked diligently to expose us to all genres of music. I am able to appreciate…

whether in any way it should reflect my high school experience. I could be sassy and say something like “That was the most fun I 've ever had without laughing” (Annie Hall movie, 1977). Alternatively, my quote could be “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.”(Dr. Seuss, Oh the Places You’ll Go). Should I choose something some else has said, or say my words? I am just confused. High school was a confusing period of my…
