Starting this term as a Grade 10 has felt different from last term. I’m more settled now and I understand how things work. The workload is still a lot, but I’ve gotten better at planning my time between classes, assignments, and activities. One moment I’m really proud of was during the debate competition. I represented my class and we did well — bringing home a medal made me realize how much practice and teamwork matter. I’ve also enjoyed the joint sessions with the other school because they’ve helped me become more confident when speaking and sharing ideas.
Academically, this term has been a turning point for me.I scored 49 out of 56 and even though I had aimed for 50, falling short by just 1 mark pushed me to reflect deeply. It reminded me that small mistakes and not doing enough practice exercises can cost you. I’m not discouraged though — I’m using it as fuel. I’ve already identified the areas where I lost marks and I’m committed to fixing them. For the rest of the term, my focus is clear: start revising early, do more practice exercises consistently, and ask questions until I fully understand. I’m determined to improve, beat my target, and prove to myself that I can do better next term.
