“My friends inspire me to come to school and they help me get through the day. They inspire me
because they help me out with school work and I like having someone I can talk to throughout
the day. My plan after high school is to go to the Paul Mitchell cosmetology school in Austin. I
chose to do that because I have been interested in it for a long time. I plan on doing this for a
while. I decided I wanted to go this year because I started to look into it more. I want to
specialize in doing hairstyling. My favorite parts of high school are theatre arts and swim team.
They are my favorites because they are something I have been doing for a while and I was
happy that they have them in high school. I got into art and theater in middle school but I have
been swimming since I was seven. I am looking forward to when the swim team starts. I am
looking forward to this because I hope I can make the state team again. I placed 5th in the boy’s
relay for the swim team so I hope I can do that again.”
