Assignment 24: Elizabeth Piper

I think my biggest disappointment was not making the first team of all-city for archery. The beginning of the year started out very rough and I wasn't able to meet the minimum score and I did not make the first team. However, throughout the year, I greatly improved and now I am one of the tope archers on the team. This turned out to be a positive, but I have other regrets from this year as well.
I procrastinated a lot. I procrastinated more than I have ever done before. It left me really stressed and I did have a hard time catching up at times. Overall, I believe in all of my procrastinating there was a lesson to be learned. I learned that it's not worth it to watch that next episode of Netflix or reorganize my desk to distract myself from homework. I need to just dig right in because in the end it is the best feeling to know that you have been productive and you have completed the tasks you need to do.
My procrastination didn't help when I joined many new clubs and took on more responsibilities. I started tutoring, I joined the Student Voice Team, DanceBlue Committee, EAP and the Bluegrass Youth Sustainability Council. I also took on more band activities, and archery. Not to mention the five AP classes I took this year. It is fair to say that I have been busy. Between studying and all my activities, I have barely found time to sleep. It has been very rough, but at the same time I learned every moment of it. I have gotten better at time management and I have found many new things that I  love.
All in all I think that junior year has been a success and I am thrilled and sad to be a senior next year, but I can't wait to see what adventures it holds.
