Hey, my name is JJ and I am a senior at Elbert County Comprehensive High School ( I know the comprehensive part makes us sound like total idiots but it is just a name). I absolutely hate my high school because it is small and with it being small it makes me feel like I am on display sometimes because I am not your "typical" male teenager. Even though I hate my school, I have met some AMAZING people that I hope to stay in contact with for the rest of my life.
At this point in my life, I am ready to graduate high school and go to college. I think that I have served my time in high school "hell", and now it is time for me to be released. I can't wait to go to UGA next year, because it is going to be so nice to meet some new people and make new friends. One thing I will keep in mind as I am about to make this transition is that through good times and bad, I will always keep this one poem in mind."Don't Quit"When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high;
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit;
Rest if you must, but don't quit.Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you can never tell how close you are;
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you are hardest hit-
It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit.-unknown
