The person on the top is representing the look of which I imagine my character Matthew Miller to look like I in no means own the picture.

          High School. It's the time of your life when you go from being a mere child to what people call a 'young adult.' It's the time where you simply just grow up. When you realize that you're being violently thrown into the real world with no real preparations. It's when the Slackers realize that they have one more year left and have been just getting by with pure C's and maybe a random A or B around. When the Nerds put on stress to get the perfect 4.0 GPA to go to Harvard or some other big University that certain jobs only look at. When the Jocks put every fiber in their being to win the Championships in their final Senior Year and hopefully get scouted by other athletic Universities to eventually-hoping to end up in a professional football team.

          High School is the time to figure out who and what you really want to be. What you want to do. Where you want to end up. It's the cause of major panic attacks and stress that requires some sort of relief usually drugs or drinking will do the trick maybe even sex at certain situations. It's also the time to say goodbye for life to some friends you only talked or saw because you all were grouped together and attended the same school and yet you know once you head out pass those school walls that the only time you will ever hear from them is in the notifications or news feed on your Facebook and that's if you're lucky. Old rivalries will be lost and won't be remembered till the 20th or 10th High School Reunion going back down memory lane laughing at how foolish you once were.

           High School is the time when you scramble against the odds to finish that chapter of your life as you eagerly, nervously, or dreading wait for the new chapter that will eventually begin. Old ties will die but new ones would be formed. High School is simply the beginning of what all awaits to become. And I, Ryder Black am happy to announce that I found my true calling in my Junior Year, History.

          History may seem boring at first for many student and adults but I found it fantasizing on how everything came be to be and how it eventually made up the model world as we know it today. The wars, religions, and uprising made me feel like I knew everything about anything and that is why I decided to become a teacher of U.S. History and World History.
