Hello. I’m Gracelyn. I’m a freshman here at foothill, class of 2017 and I’m here to tell you about my goals for freshman year and beyond.

I have several goals for my freshman year academically. For English I hope to actually enjoy reading, in EDA I want to be educated in the digital art, I want to ask questions and understand biology, I hope to really grasp everything in Algebra 1 this year, and in health/ geography I want to pay attention even when it’s boring. Those are a few of my academic goals for freshman year.

As far as my social life goes I’d love more than anything to keep in touch with everyone at Ventura and beyond. One friend that especially sticks out to me is Waverly. Another friend named Olivia; but that may be a little hard considering that she moved out to Somis, CA and is attending Moorpark High. I do have a strong core group of friends here at Foothill, but all that matters to me right now are those friends attending other high schools. And those are my social goals for this year and beyond.

For family I don’t have many goals, but one that does stand out is trying not to argue with my mom. Other than that everything seems to be going good.

This year I have 3 goals for sports and my health. First of all, I need to eat better. And keeping this between me and you, I’m a closet junk-food-junkie. Secondly, I want to get back into swimming. I used to swim a lot from age 8 until about age 12 and since then I’ve been dancing which brings me to my 3rd and final goal for health, being dance. Since my first dance class I’ve been hooked. I never stop dancing. And I want to keep dancing for the remainder of my life, hoping to go far in the dance world. And that right there is my 3 goals for being healthy.

As you can see, I have many goals for freshman year. Some of them may not be accomplished but I promise to try my best. I hope to have a great year and that’s that.
