Class Of 2011

Hey All!! :)

So I have had things to blog about in the recent days, but its either finding the time or the creativity to write to make this appealing to you guys!! haha :)

I am 3 days away from my FINAL year of High School... Crazy I know right?!?! It feels like just yesterday that i was a little freshman, freaked out by the high school. And now i am ready to completely live it up and enjoy every min of my Senior year.

It is completely insane for me to look back on how I have grown in the past 4 years! I remember starting my freshman year and I was so nervous, completely freaked out, insecure, & God was definately not a major part of my life. I knew He was there, but that wasnt my life at all.

I am honestly proud of who I have become and glad that I have changed for the better. My life in previous years was focused around things that were not for the greater good, not good for me, my friends or my family. I am sooo grateful for wonderful people that have stuck by me and surrounded me in my life. They have truly made a difference in my life and I am so blessed! God has completely changed my focus onto Him and how to live out my calling. And even though I go through dry spots with Him, He is always there.

On Tuesday, the class of 2011 will be starting their Senior year, and I cannot wait to see what is ahead for all of us! :)

God Bless,
Ashley

High School

Hey all! :)

On my poll on the left side of this box you guys voted! :) Thanks so much please keep it up! :) Record amounts of voting! :)  So by only 2 points the topic.....High School, won.

So here we go!

Ok so I can be the first one to tell you that high school has its perks and its definate downfalls.  So to give you a clearer picture on my values, I am going to list the perks and the downfalls of high school for me right here for you....

Perks
-Friends
-Education
-Meeting new people
-Clubs
-Music
-Great role models (Teachers)
-New knowledge
-Homecoming!
-Spirit days

Downfalls
-Cheating
-Swearing
-Drugs
-Alchol
-Sex
-Drama
-Cliques(Not too many but they are still there)
-Non Acceptance

So you can clearly see the difference of the two lists huh?!

A common misconception that is put out there is that "high school is the best time of your life!"-----totally incorrect! It definately has not been the best time of my life. And dont get me wrong, I dont HATE high school. I love having the time with my friends and spending time with them etc I LOVE THAT! Its just the fact that I feel that people define their lives by high school. And if you do that, your not going to go any where!

I know im totally preaching to the choir right here!

Ok moving away from that part of it and into something else about High School.

As a high school student we are SUPER STRESSED! Its insane!  I really treasure the nights that I can relax, when that rarely happens. We all have so much going on that I feel that we hardly have any time for the important things in life to be completely honest.

Ok guys im gonna be completely honest right here.... this is SOOO tough for me to write! I have no idea what to say, and how to express my opinions! Ahhh im going to try again with this statement and then leave it at that.....

High school has its good and its bad. For me I do not feel accepted by many people. Thats what High school seems to be about is fitting in or making fun of those who dont. This is why high school is so tough for me to write about.

Honest? YES.

Please comment! Feedback would be great! :) 
I will put up a new poll as well about what you would like to hear about next. Please vote, you can vote multiple times :)

God Bless,
Ashley
