Review of the Past Week

My first couple of weeks at John Carroll has gone pretty well, I hope that they will better as time goes on. For the first two days or so I got lost on whether to go left or right when coming from the stairs. I am learning quickly though, and it is becoming easier every day. I made the girls JV volleyball team, which was a good way to make new friends. Only three freshmen tried out for volleyball, so I had to really bound with the sophomores. From having the week of practices I recognize more people in the hall ways, than just the five people that came from my school. The girls on my team are very kind and they are very willing to help, they all have become my new good friends. It make my day easier knowing that I have friends in the grade above me and that their is a person in the halls to say hi to. My advisor's name is Mrs. Drummey, she is a very nice lady and she provides us with food during advisory. My hardest day is Wednesday, I have all my classes then, and Thursdays are my best because I have mods six, seven and eight off. Over the past couple weeks I have learned that it is important to put subjects in the subject spot when sending an email to a teacher. If you do not put a subject on the email, it will most likely go to the teachers spam mailbox. I think one of the most difficult things is knowing what bell is yours. I have a class where 3-5 bells go off but none of them are mine. The way I deal with this is the teacher normally says have a good day, or I just wait and see what the other students are doing. I have also started to pick up on pattern in the lunch room, like Wednesday I will always bring a lunch because there is so many people in the lunch room that I won’t have enough time to get in line and eat. I hope that as I continue to go to school that I will become more comfortable with the school and that I make lots of friends and memories here at John Carroll.
