Assignment 24 Ben Schaeffer

I think Junior year was a whopping success. I came a lot closer with some friends I made Sophomore Year, and I didn't find it ridiculously difficult as some people made it out to be. My only regret is not trying harder in Calculus and Spanish last semester, but I still made good grades. The biggest lesson I learned is that if I really want to achieve something, putting forth extensive effort is very helpful. At this point in Spanish last semester, I had an 88, but I'm going to finish this semester with a 95. AP Spanish is not easy, but I navigated it well by studying every night. I made most mistakes in time budgeting miscalculations leading to cramming, but I didn't take a lot of risks. Generally, I'm a pretty conserved guy who only takes a leap of faith when necessary. This summer, I will play a lot of lacrosse and try to spend as much time with my father as possible, as I don't have a lot of time left living with him. Next year, I plan on taking classes that interest me, and my goal is straight A's and to win another state lacrosse championship. I will reach both these goals by working hard and studying. I also plan on savoring every last minute with my friends.
