How old are you?
18 years old, so I’m officially legal now! My birthday is October 1
How is your senior year going so far?
I’ve liked my senior year so far. It’s going good, it’s by going quick, it could go a little slower. I’m getting ready to go to college and I’m playing a lot of sports.
What sports have you participated in?
I did cross country in the fall, I’ll be doing basketball in the winter and then swimming in the spring.
What are you least looking forward to this year?
Mmmm, probably getting denied to a school I really want to go to, and not doing well in basketball.
If you don’t mind me asking, what college do you want to go to and what do you want to study?
So the schools I want to go to are Cal Poly Pomona or CSU San Bernardino and I would like to major in kinesiology and athletic training.
What is your worst memory from high school?
My worst memory is falling asleep in every class and getting caught.
What is your favorite memory?
My favorite memory would have to be when my friend was shaking his milk and he thought it was closed, but it was still open and the milk kind of went everywhere. Yea that was a funny moment.
What has been your least favorite school year?
I would say my sophomore year because I was struggling in my classes and I wasn’t where I wanted to be, mentally or physically.
Do you have any tips/advice for underclassmen or any juniors getting ready for their senior year next year?
Do not procrastinate. Procrastination will kill you in the long run, especially if you are an AP student.
