I was talking about goals with my golf partner yesterday, so I decided to list some goals I had for the year... I think I'm going to separate this into catagories, haha. This is sort of me thinking outloud, so to speak. =P
Golf
I had a pretty good day of golf yesterday. I'm super happy to have been in my JV#3 spot, but after yesterday I've been bumped up to #2! So I'll be playing JV2 in the match on Thursday against Kentlake... I'm hoping to play better and keep my spot and maybe move up again. I'm going to get signed up for lessons soon by the pro at Druids Glen. It's going to cost, but it'll be totally worth it if I achieve my goals and make varsity!
3 Goals for Golf (to be achieved by the end of the season):
- Score in the 40's
- No more than 2 putts a hole
- No more than a double bogey on any hole
**Ultimate Goal: Make Varsity
School
I think I'm finally all caught up with my classes. I just need to work on my time management so that I can keep up with my classes with everything else going on. A friend of mine who is pretty much taking the same classes with me dropped golf because she couldn't handle everything. I really don't want to drop anything, so I'm pretty determined to survive :P
Goals:
- Straight A's
- No late or missing assignments
- Score 5's on my AP exams
- Score 2000+ on my SAT's
**Ultimate Goal: Maintain 3.8 GPA
Extracurricular
There's a lot of other things I have planned to do during the year. I have to go to clubs like Key club which means I have to do a lot of community service hours. I guess it won't be too bad though because I have a lot from theatre and the museum. Plus it'll help with the Junior Project. I also want to start my poetry club (P.O.E.T.'s People of Expressive Talents). It'll be a monthly thing because I don't have much time. It's mainly a club meant to provide resources and feedback for poetry and stuff. I don't know. I'll be done with my museum commitment in January, so I won't have to deal with that for very long. And I have every intention applying for this City of Kent internship where I'll be paid minimum wage for up to 100 hours. Hopefully it'll lead to another job, but if it doesn't then I don't really care because I'm honestly not sure how well I'll be able to balance everything.
Goals:
- Start a successful poetry club
- Apply for internship during winter quarter
- Work lights for Fall and Spring plays
- Regularly attend Key Club and NHS; maybe Interact
So some other things I've got to think about and plan to do are try to get some sort of job shadowing gig with an advertising/graphics design firm. This is mostly for the Junior Project, but at the same time I really want to know what it'd be like working at one of them. Oh and Madds talked to me about going to Europe this summer with a group of other students and teachers. I really hope my parents approve, but I want to be able to pay most of my way to Europe. It'll be able $5000 and if I do the internship I'll be able to make at least $800. Then I will be doing a lot of fundraising types of things. I'm just not sure if I'll be able to come up with all that money... Alright, so I'm exhausted. I started working on this entry in Web Design first period, but could get back to it til way later... obviously. Haha.
