Everything I Need to Know...

I was scared, I was lost, I was confused and I felt alone. Beginning high school was probably one of the scariest times I've ever had. Once I was here at Millbrook I was totally lost. So many people, so many classes(A, B schedule right??) so much to do, and such little time in four years. I had no clue where my place and boy would it take sometime to find it. The middle of sophmore year we had to make a choice, to do IB or not to do IB. My initial thoughts, no thanks too much, don't want to do that. After lots of consideration and a large amount of influence from my parents I decided that maybe IB was a good idea. Junior year, I had many mixed feelings towards the program, I loved parts of it and I hated other parts. Now, looking back as a senior, I see it was one of the best decisions I've made. It was one of the hardest things I have had to do, and while my grades weren't always the best throughout the program, the relationships I made were so worth it. I made life long friends and got close with people that I never would have even imagined being friends with. I'm now apart of a family, and that is totally worth the sleepless nights, endless hours of wondering what I'm being yelled at in French, and countless IA's and word counts.
