At first I wanted to go to Foothill, but someone told me that it is harder than Buena. That made me want to go to Buena for high school. I knew a few people who went to Foothill, and they told me how much they loved it and why. I thought about what would be the best for me, and I decided that I would go to Foothill, and my heart was set for it too. I learned about my two options, Buena and Foothill, from people I knew. I talked to my brother about Buena, and I talked to some people who had graduated from Foothill, and a friend who had been attending Foothill, about this school. I liked what I heard about Foothill better, and it sounded like a better school, for the most part. I thought about what would be the best school for me, and I had to think for a few days. I weighed the pros and cons for each school, and came to a conclusion. I decided that I would rather go to Foothill rather than Buena. I liked the size of the school, I wouldn’t be known as my brother’s little sister and I also liked that the teachers cared about my education, and wanted me to have a good future. I knew that my head wanted me to go to Foothill, and that I knew that it was the school for me. My heart wanted me to go to Foothill also, but it liked some things about Buena. I knew that I had to make a decision. I talked to my parents and listened to what they thought, and took it as a grain of salt. They were supportive of what I wanted, but that didn’t help me make a decision. I came to the decision that I would go to Foothill, and that it would be great. I didn’t make my decision at one particular moment, it just kind of happened over time. Once I knew that I wanted to go to Foothill, I was set for it, and I wouldn’t settle for anything else. I decided to come to Foothill because I wanted to be my own person, I thought about my choices, and decided what was best for me. I decided that Foothill was a better school and that I would probably like it more than my other choice. I didn't have a real hard time deciding which high school to come to, so this was a fairly easy dicision for me.
