Personal Narrative: My 8th Grade Accomplishments

During 8th grade, I got called out to the counselor’s office. Entering the counselor’s office, the counselor told me that I was in the honors class. The day I graduated Junior High with honors changed the next 4 years in High school. I promised myself and my mom that I would be graduating High school with honors. For the past 4 years, I have worked so hard to be in the honors program, again. I started to take advanced classes and then I started to take dual credit classes my junior year. If it wasn’t for being in the honors program my 8th grade year, I don’t think I would be as worried about my grades as I am now.
The one who influenced me to keep striving and to have determination is my father. Although, my father and mother are not together

he helps my mother in anyway he can. I look up to my father because even though my father had to drop out of Junior high to help his family with money, he still became something without a high school diploma. My father works a lot for his money and I have seen the downfalls of not finishing school. For example, when he texts me he misspells a lot and something it doesn’t make sense and when he talks to me he doesn’t know how to pronounce big words. He is the man that keeps me striving to further my education and gives me determination to become a veterinarian and never give up on my dreams because he never gave up on his dreams.
