      Last semester was my (and pretty much everyone's) first year in high school. It was a very new experience for me, and I was both very excited and worried. I thought that in high school, we would have more freedom but more work as well. As it turns out, I was right. (BIG surprise, right?) There were plenty of things that I expected, but a lot of things that I did not see coming. 

      One thing I learned from last semester was not to leave assignments until the last moment. If not, I tend to end up staying up very late, completing assignments. This semester, I will need to focus on my schoolwork much more in order to finish them earlier. One other thing is to take more careful notes in class in order to use them to study.
