Throughout my time at Mountain, I have learned how to be adaptable, in sixth grade with such unexpected changes in our learning environment with COVID. In seventh grade, I think that I learned to be more self confident, because seventh grade is kind of just that year in between, so it feels kind of awkward as you grow in to your body and personality. In eighth grade, I think that I have learned how to be more responsible, respectful, independent, and reliable. The event that most shaped this growth was my internship, because it pushed me in all of these categories.

The biggest lesson I have learned during my time at MMS has probably been to just stick with the people you trust and love, and make sure that they love you back. These people are the ones who know you best, they can be friends, family, anyone, but they always hold on to you and pull you back when you need it. They make the worst things better, the most boring days a hayride and they make you smile when you think you can’t anymore. They are the people that you try your absolute best to hold on to, and never let go, because you know that if you do, they will too. These people for me are my two best friends, my parents, and my dog, of course.
Will & Jyles
Will & Jyles
Will and Jyles are definitely not the most snuggly and sappy friends, but that is what makes it fun. Being friends with them is just about having fun and laughing, if drama starts, they just walk straight away, because they know that eventually, someone else will solve it. I think that this is one of the main reasons why they are my best friends, they just have fun, and they have taught me that drama isn't worth it. So when I get upset, or start drama, they walk away or ask me why I'm upset, and when they do, I realize what a big waste of time it is. This has helped me a ton in and out of school, because it has helped me just be happier in general.
mom & dad
mom & dad
My mom and dad are the most influential people in my life, and I'm glad, because the more I can be like them, the better a person I will turn out to be. Both of them are so smart, unique, supportive, and loving. Even though I don't always want to be around them (like most teenagers), I know that deep down every single thing they do in their lives is because they love me and want me to have the best life possible. They have taught me to have an open mind about everything and welcome differences, because they make us better people, they have taught me to question the system, and find every possible way to be myself.
Cornbread
Cornbread
Cornbread is my eight year-old dog. He is an easygoing, loving little pooch. When he sees that I am upset about anything, he rushes over and helps in the only way he can, licking my face as much as he possibly can and tackling me onto the ground until I am laughing hysterically. In 6th grade, when we would have remote days, Cornbread was my helper in completing assignments, whenever I needed a brain break, he would be ready with his favorite toys to play with me for as long as I would. Cornbread, just like the two knuckleheads I call my best friends, just wants to have fun, and I think that it is one of the best lessons they have taught me.
In highschool, I will definitely have to use effort to adapt to a new learning environment and try my best to succeed. I will use integrity when I make mistakes and always hold myself accountable. I will use respect in the way I treat my peers and teachers. I will use refinement by progressively improving in all of my classes as time goes on.
