Walking down the school hallway is the most uplifting part of my day. Shocking, right? Most high schoolers feel like school hallways are the ocean, where great white sharks constantly await for the easiest bait to pass by so that they can attack and eat up the little fish. However, my experience isn’t exactly like that. I am more of a shiny gold fish.

I decided to violate a social norm. I choose this option for the living write up experiment because I feel like it is very out of my comfort zone. Violating social norms is not something that people do on an everyday basis and after completing this experiment, I feel as if we should.

In my pockets I have a cell phone with a dead battery

used as both a way to escape, and to express how I feel. My love for music grew greatly when I began high school, but has always been a huge part of my life. I had to make a choice in what profession I wanted to pursue early on. The automotive industry had always been my first love, and still is. Cars and music are my two passions in life.

I stand on the runway with my head held down and my heart racing. Although I have done this many times before, I still get the nervous rush.

Mr. Hall had asked me if I wanted to try pole vaulting my Sophomore year. I didn’t say no before I tried.

Raelene Akgul (Page 1) My Poetic Self Concept I wrote the self concept poem without much thought and from my opinion, without excellent deliverance, yet it felt good, every word, because as I plunked away at the keyboard I felt this overwhelming pride of who I was as a child and who I am today because of my childhood.
