I'm a year-round swimmer, and during the winter season
I swim for Pennington. The rest of the year I train with
a club team. When I have morning swim practice, I drive
to school with a friend. Otherwise, my dad drops me off
on his way to work. When I get to school, I usually go
to my locker and get my stuff. Most mornings I stop in
at the Admission Office. I was lucky to become a campus
guide as a freshman. I enjoy meeting new people and introducing
them to Pennington. |

First period I have French I with Madame Voorhees. It
is my first time studying French, and it can be difficult
to pronounce. |

Exploring color in art class. |

After French, I go to World History Honors, an intense
class. Right now we're studying European colonization
in the Americas. It's really interesting, and I always
look forward to this class. |
 |
I took Introduction to Art as my fine arts elective and
really loved it. Though I'd taken art before, we did more
drawing and worked a lot faster than I'd done before.
My favorite medium is drawing with charcoal, but I want
to take Introduction to Photography next term. |
 |
I always have lunch with Kim, Liz, and Lisa. My favorite
lunch is grilled cheese and curly fries, with strawberry
cheesecake ice cream for dessert. I also have something
healthy, like salad and fruit, and sometimes we go off
campus for lunch. |
 |
After lunch I have Geometry Honors, and it's really challenging.
I took Algebra in eighth grade so I was able to move ahead
when I came to Pennington. |
|
 |
I have Biology Honors with Mr. Hall. He is also one of
the Girls' Varsity Softball coaches. All of my teachers
are involved with activities after school. |
 |
English I Honors with Mr. Thompson is really hard, but
I love the reading. I especially liked Romeo and Juliet
because it was suspenseful. The test questions are really
complex, but I grasp the material, so I do well. Mr. T.
is funny, and that makes the class enjoyable. |
 |
I have a study hall at the end of the day, and I can
find friends and talk, or do work, or go to the student
center or library. I make good use of my time because
I have a challenging course load and am busy with swimming
in the evenings.
