My Life as a Student
“I wrote this piece to entertain myself of the school year and keep pushing until the end. High school really hit me starting from this year and worse along its way up to may. I kept finding myself in the dark, trying to avoid the reality of having to keep working my way up through education. Education I feel like never seems to be complete in any means and will be forever continuous.” -Kelly Yoon
"In the Eyes of a Football Player" by Kate Shadburn, 11th grade
“This was taken during a Lambert JV football game last season, and it captures the point of view of a football player during a pinnacle point in the game.” -Kate Shadburn
Monday, I should wake up early and go to school
Or should I go back to bed with the cookies I stole
Tuesday, I’m set and ready to go
It’s a great day until I spill coffee on myself
Wednesday, we’re only in the middle and got to keep working
But first, gotta have another cup of caffeine to do so
Thursday, so close yet so far.
Continue studying but also start loving yourself
Friday, afterschool traffic is war
It’s time to party and break life rules
Saturday, my happiest day of the week
I simply just want to jump in the pools
Sunday, I go to work which I somewhat enjoy
After 4, urgh, I have another full week to destroy
