Freshmen Year

My impression of Stevenson after almost a full two weeks is positive. I've met so many new people through all of my classes and people I already knew. There are so many activities and events to attend like the football games. Although it's so different than when I went to Catholic School through Middle School, I like it alot better. Compared to Catholic School, Stevenson has barely any rules. When it comes to homework, The difference between Catholic School and Public School involving homework is that if you forgot your homework at Catholic School, you would get no credit, but at Stevenson, the rules are so much more relaxed.

Waking up in the morning is difficult, and getting to school in time can be hard. By the time I wake up and decide what to wear in the morning, I barely have any time to eat breakfast. Waking up at 6:00A.M and not getting home till usually 5:00P.M seems like such a long day because of practices after school. Once I get home and eat, it's time to start homework already.

When I think back to the first day, I remember walking into school being afraid that I would get lost. I was so nervous about being late for class. I learned that it's not as hard as you think to get around because all of the halls connect to one center cirlce all. Passing time is intimidating at first because you think seven minutes isn't enough time to get from class to class, but I've learned that it really is. I have alot of friends in my lunch that I sit with but if you dont hurry from fourth hour, you might not find a table to sit at. I've come to enjoy Stevenson, my classes, and the people.
