School has increased in its difficulty over the years. In the past, kindergarten was carefree; all I
had to do was finger paint, crafts, and daily naptimes, which gave me the rest I needed. During my
elementary years, math went from adding and subtracting to multiplication and division, while I also
studied states and capitals. After that came junior high with its more advanced math, which also
strengthened my independent study skills. Recently high school has been the most difficult – my
responsibilities have gone from naptime to chemistry equations. School has had a huge part in helping
me plan for the future.
