John Edwards 1B 1/27/11 Goal for the New Semester A new semester is on the horizon and changes must be made and new goals must be set. Last semester was not the best, grade wise and there was a long punishment for this. This semester will be different, with more studying time and actually doing all of my class work and homework. My goal for next semester is to get on the honor role because it will pull up my grade point average, it will get me into a good collage, and it will help me to no longer be grounded. This semester I will pull up my grade point average by making the honor role. In order to achieve this I will need to study for long periods of time and complete all my home work. One of the biggest reasons I did not do so well this semester is because of not doing the home work that was assigned to me. If I complete my home work and turn it in on time, without procrastinating, my GPA will go up. Another major reason I did not have a good average this semester is because I did not study. Studying for tests and quizzes would prepare me and enable me to get better grades. A good reason for me to get on the honor role this semester is so that I can get into a good collage, like ODU. Collages look at your grade point average to determine if you are right for their school. Collages, like ODU, like to have keen minds with high grade point averages so that they look like their school is a good school to be enrolled in. Collage is necessary for me to get ahead in life. With good grade I can go to college. In order for me to become a teacher I need to go to college and I want to do that more than anything. The most important reason of all to make the honor role next semester is so I can be free and no longer have to stay inside all day. Being grounded is not fun, especially when you have friends that have not seen you in three months. Getting on the honor role will take me off of my punishment and allow me to see my friends once again. Once I see my friends again, I will be able to return to a normal life of hanging out with my friend and making new ones. This next semester my goal is to get on the honor role and return to a normal, stress free, life. With good grades I will have back my sanity with some new perks as was. Such perks like the ability to get into a decent collage, like ODU. I will also raze my grade point avenge for the year and release me from the prison that is my room. By getting honor role this semester I can achieve all these things and more.
