We've had some trusty times together through the course of AP English. Remember that one time, when I wrote
Dear Journal, today I start AP English?
Dear Journal, this is a journal within a journal. J O U R N A L C E P T I O N.
All jokes aside now. I am going to miss AP English very much. We started off as scared juniors, and have progressed to being the coolest kids in school. Okay, that might be a slight hyperbole, but we deserve some recognition. I've never learned more or worked harder, and it's sad to see AP English coming to a close. I really feel like we've all become closer, or at least come to respect each other. AP English unified us. I found myself talking with people I never would have before, ranting about English and Data Sheets and other nonsense. Sure, it was rough. Near the end, I just wanted it over with. But when I sat down to take the AP test and felt completely confident, I appreciated all the effort I'd put in. And now we have only a few days left.
So ends the best English class I will probably ever take. In college I'll have introductory writing courses which will probably seem to easy. Hopefully I won't forget how to write, but I don't think that's possible, since the rules of analysis are burned into my brain by now. Also, the quotes. Etched in my brain forever.
Basically, Journal, I'm going to miss everything. I hope that all of my classmates find success in their college endeavors, and that Ms. Serensky's senior class next year doesn't drive her crazy. (They probably will, as I'm sure we did)
Yours Truly,
Sarah

What you said about this being the best English class we will ever take is probably true for all of us and that is a shame. Despite how much I dislike English classes, I have to say I enjoyed this one. Also, I agree the rules for writing and the quotes are etched into our brains never to leave us.
ReplyDeleteI also had that realization as I took that AP test and thought "wow, this is pretty easy..." I already knew that AP English was worth all the work beforehand, but taking the test and feeling so confident only solidifies my feelings. I will truly miss the "togetherness" that AP English has provided us all with.
