Year In Review

2009-2010 was a pretty good year for myself. My academics have been at the grade level that I have wanted them at for both semesters so I am pleased with that. I started the year off with being the captain on the junior girls volleyball team. I couldn't have picked a better team myself, we had such great girls this year and we all got along so well. Our road trip to Weyburn will always be a high school memory of mine. The other sport I was involved in was softball. Our softball season couldn't have gone any better. We are city champions! Again we had such a good group of girls that made our time together so much fun. I was only able to attend two out of the three dances that were held this year but both of them were a great time. Throughout the year I moved houses and got my licence so those were two pretty big changes in my life that happened.

Next year, grade eleven, seems like it has come way too fast. After I complete my finals this year I will be done half of my high school years which seems crazy when you think about it. Next year I plan on playing the same sports, volleyball and softball. I am super excited about volleyball because I will be trying out for the senior girls team which will be a struggle. I would really like to play with those girls and also to be able to be coached by Mr.Foster and Mr.Ash. I will rejoin the softball team again as well. Hopefully 2010-2011 will be another successful year for me at WKC.

Exam Stress

Preparing for final exams next week is not going to be fun at all. I will start this weekend with studying for my first exam which is anatomy and then work my way throughout the week with each day a bit of each class or either a class per day. For my math final I am going to study a chapter each day so that I am prepared for the final before the weekend because I am going to Winnipeg on June 18th for a softball tournament. I do find it a stressful time because it is hard to remember certain things that you did throughout the semester and also trying to remember everything from each class. I am not too worried about my math final because I did really good on my midterm but my English final is a different story. These tips are could actually be helpful while I'm studying because I tend to get too stressed during this time. A tip I would like to add to this is to make sure to get as much sleep as you can. It would be smart to start getting to bed at a good time now so that you are caught up on your sleep by the time finals come around.
