Hello friends and fellow bloggers! My name is Sarah and this is my AP Composition blog. I am 17 years old and I will be a senior this year. Despite my difficult schedule, I'm very excited for my final year at MHS. Now I suppose I should talk about my life.
I was born in Watertown, Wisconsin. When I was about a year old, my family moved to Black River Falls, and when I was four, we moved to Shawano. Finally, we moved to McFarland when I was seven. This August will mark our ten year anniversary in McFarland.
My family consists of my mom and dad, my two brothers, my dog, and my fish. My mother works at Care Net Pregnancy Center and my father works at Dean Health. My brothers and I all work at the Angie O'Donnell Aquatic Center-- also known as McFarland High School's pool. This job will take up most of my summer. I teach swimming lessons and lifeguard. Along with this, I am also on the swim team, which I have been a part of since I was 12. I spend about 8 to 12 hours at the pool a day, with a week off between swimming lesson sessions. Despite the long days, I love my job. I have found teaching to be very enjoyable, and I would like to continue it in the future.
Art has been a huge part of my life. I love creating all types of art, including drawing, painting, ceramics, and photography. This is something I've been doing ever since I was little, and I will continue it as long as I can. I plan on getting a degree in Art Education in college. Last year, I was in an art competition called Visual Arts Classic (VAC), for which I received two first place awards. I hope to enter this competition again this year.
I am a fairly introverted person and I enjoy spending a lot of time on my own. I like to just relax and read, draw, or watch TV shows and movies.
My senior year will be very busy. I will be taking four AP classes, along with swimming this fall, working with our school's GSA and Driftwood, competing in VAC, working at the pool, and getting ready for college. Senior year, bring it on.
