seventh photo

Another success I had in my high school career was shooting my first deer. This usually happens in middle school but I didn’t see any deer my first 3 years of hunting. It was a great moment and luckily I didn’t have to gut it. It was small but she really did taste good!

Probably one of the best trips I have ever went on was last year when we went on a carnival cruise and then we went to the wizarding world of harry potter after that. There is this shop called Ollivanders wand shop and you 40 people go into a room. Then they simulate the wand choosing the wizard on one or two people. They usually pick a child but he chose my sister and me to go through the simulation.  It was so exciting and Harry Potter has been my obsession next to golf ever since I read them when I was younger. It has defined my childhood and my high school career

One of the greatest achievements my high school career was making it to state my sophomore year for golf. It is tied for one of the best moments of my life. Not only did we go to state, we placed first in our sectional when we were most likely to get third. I have never tried so hard in my life and succeeded so greatly on one thing before. We ended up being the first girl’s golf team from memorial to go to state.

After family one of the bigger things that defined my high school career was golf. Golf is my hobby, sport, obsession, and hopefully one day will be a part of my career one day. It has defined my high school career and at some points I thought it was more important than school. That might be the reason I didn’t get the best grades my freshman and sophomore years because I needed to sort out my priorities.

The next picture I decided to do was a family picture. This is my mother, my stepdad, my sister, and me at the capital protesting against collective bargaining rights. I thought this was a good picture because family is very important to me. And one of our new mottos as a family is a family that protests together stays together. It was a weird thing to bond over but it did effect my senior year greatly.

I decided to do my photo essay on my high school career. I will talk mostly about trips I’ve taken, triumphs, and, of course, golf. What a better way to start of my high school cover photo is to use my senior picture. This was a long and stressful day of trying to take the perfect picture and of my mom yelling at me to smile. But I think it at least turned out decent.
