My Expectations of HS

As I went through elementary and middle school, I didn't think much about my goals and expectations for high school or beyond. The only thing I really expected in myself was to maintain good grades... and in return get at least two days free, called a 'weekend'. :]  But now as I realize there are four years ahead of me that will effect at least the earliest part of my life, I feel I should do more to be prepared. I have new expectations in myself and goals that I'd like to be reached by the time I graduate from high school. And yes, the answer to the question asked so often to people in high school, after I graduate from high school I plan on going to college.
My expectations in high school include getting good grades, doing some extra curricular activities, sports, some art classes, a language class, etc. Pretty basic things in order to graduate, but of course these expectations will change along with my interests in high school. I realize that the things I do in high school have the ability to effect the career path I choose and how qualified I will be for certain things. Along with these expectations, I am thinking about doing the Running Start program, and other ways to earn some extra credits. I hope to do very well in school, and experience great things along with it.
