Academics
Academics is one of the major elements in my life. I try to challenge myself in school. I have taken and i am taking several Advanced Placement and Honors classes. I got a 3 on my Advanced Placement American History and Advanced Placement English and Language Composition Advanced Placement Exams. I also received a 4 on My Advanced Placement World History Exam. My current GPA is a 4.1 and my composite ACT score is a 27. I work hard to maintain my high grades, even if that means sacrificing sleep to do so. I try hard to be a model student by staying focused in class and not cheating. I also try to lend a hand to my fellow student when they need so help in class.
Arts
By way of arts, I am a dancer. Dance is an extraordinary art that I adore immensely. I commit the majority of my free time in dance classes and working as an assistant dance teacher. I am dedicated to my dancing so much that i even wish to study it in college. My goal as a dancer is to be able to share my talent and passion to audiences around the world and to influence younger generations. My job as an assistant dance teacher is the first step to influencing younger generations. When I see the way the little children look up to me i know that I am helping them desire to keep on dancing. Through a college education i will be able to find many chances to perform for many.
Faith
I am a strong Christian. I attend church weekly and attend Fellowship of Christian Athletes at my school. But my faith goes further than just attending Christian related events. I desire to be like Christ and build a strong relationship with Him. Through the female youth group members at my church I have been able to connect more with my faith. I talk daily with God and read His word. My youth group and I are capable of holding sophisticated conversions about God in the World today. We have also done several projects and plan to do more. For example, this past fall we collected suitcases for Foster children so they wouldn't have to put their possessions in trash bags. I even plan to go on A mission trip to Arlington, Texas this Spring Break.
