Summer has now come to a close and with that I must re-enter the CAS mindset and note down some goals I hope to achieve in the coming year. Last year I was quite successful in completing the goals I had set for myself and now, once more, I am excited to work on achieving these goals again.
Goals for 12th grade year:
- Creativity: My goal last year was to reach a basic level of competence in a musical intrument and I achieved that goal by practicing guitar regularly at home. This year, in addition to continuing with the guitar, I would like to take some piano lessons at the local Yamaha store. I will look into doing this but with the workload I have this year and school activities, this might prove difficult to find the time.
- Action: My goal last year was to go to the gym in order to stay healthy and fit but I found that the location and hours of the gym by my house was not convenient and now, this year with the added workload and responsibilities I need to find a different way of incorporating action into my life. Similarly to last year I am a leader for Habitat for Humanity and therefore will be participating in monthly builds. This is a great way for me to get exercise since it demands rigorous heavy lifting and such.
- Service: As mentioned before-hand, I am a leader of the Community Service group Habitat for Humanity and similarly to last year my goal are to focus on going on builds and trying to build as many houses for the less-priviledged as possible. Another goal that I hope to accomplish for Community Service is to create a blog for Habitat for Humanity so as to reflect on our builds and achievements. We hope to do this so that instead of having reflections of our builds on many individual blogs, it will all be on one.
