2010 sounds like 2009

Every year, I'm asked from somebody what my goals are. Year after year, they seem the same. Get good grades, play well in basketball and still have fun. And again, I set these same goals but with a little higher expectations. Last year I was able to improve my grade point average, and I hope to the same this semester. I'm beginning to figure out how school goes. How I can maximize my time is was a goal my freshmen year, and it's only until now that I'm beginning to get it right. It's what's allowed my grades to improve. Then there is basketball, considerable the other half of my life. Not only do I hope to play well, but now that my role on the team is so much more important, I feel like my goal is instead to carry the team through district and onto the region and hopefully the sweet 16.
But as my junior comes to an end, my focus on both basketball and school have increased. College is scary! and the closer and I get, the more I hear about it, it makes me scared, and angry that I didn't push myself harder earlier in high school. But I'm doing what I can now to make up for what I did earlier.
It's not any new goals that I've set for myself in 2010, its just the focus and drive to achieve them has changed.
