I Got My Poem Published!

Last Friday, at home checking my email, I found out that my teacher had submitted my poem to be published in the school's Literary Thread, mine got published and is on page 8! I am so lucky to be one of these people, I don't know if they select a few or they allow everyone, but I think that this is one of my milestones in life. I think that this is wonderful and that later in the future when I get some of my stuff published this is going to be good to go back to. The things that colleges look for are the little and always big achievements that you have done in your high school. I think that if I have a billion of my poems submitted, I am likely to stand out to one of the colleges. I want to be a Chemistry Major, but art or poetry as a minor, and I have a strong heartfelt liking to UCSD, it is where my Dad works along with my Aunt Nora, on my mom's side! I just wanted to thank my most favorite and remarkable teacher that the school, SDA, has to offer: Mrs. Youmans. I think that her efforts to push me foward in my acedemic studies really helped me in seeing my true goal, and I would not stand here wishing for my goals in life had she not guided me in the right direction.
