Life Experiences ( April 19, 2012)

The sole focus of Pacific American School is acadamical achievements that will enable students to get into excellent colleges. Due to that, every student entered PAS with one only wish: Get into the top ten colleges. Everything else can be sacrificed. I myself included.  I joined several programs because I wanted to gain credits. Two programs turned out I liked, one turned out I disliked, but I still continued doing this anyway. Seemed like the longer I remain in PAS, the more deeply I became a only book smart nerd that doesn't know how to do anything in the real world. I had no socialize skills or real life practical skills. In TAIMUN, it took me longer to actually get into the writing mode and figure out what really is going on. It also took me longer to gain the courage to go interview people. OVerall though, it was a great experience This summer I am looking forward to do another program that should really enrich my high school experiences as well. SO excited! I have started reading Pride and Prejudice and it was amazing. I love the witty remarks passed between Darcy and Elizabeth! Quite Awesome! I like it quite a lot. MY mom just came back from the parent teacher conference held today and I better go say hi. Alright, so I'll draw this journal to an end.
