Hello fellow freshmen. I am Sasha and I am a member of the class of 2015. I am proud to say that these are going to be my next four years. At first I wasn’t sure if I would like this school but it turned out pretty well. I look forward to seeing the opportunities that come up for me in my future.

First I would like to talk about my family. I have one brother named Sam, he is 15 years old and he is a sophomore at Ventura High School. I hope to get along with him better, because he is my brother, and I've always wanted to have a good relationship with him. My mom, I would never forget about her, she is the one who brought me to life and taught me everything that I need to know, she is my life. After that I have my dad, he was born in Le Mans, France and even though I can’t really understand what he says some of the time, I will always love him. My goal is, to be able to spend more time with my dad because he is working all the time at our restaurant, 71 Palm in downtown Ventura.

I would also like to talk about school. These next four years are going to be the years that really matter. School is very important in your everyday life. My goals for school are to work my hardest in all of my classes. By the time I finish high school, I would like at least a 3.5 GPA or a 4.0.

Next I would like to talk about my friends. I love all of my friends. They have always been there for me when I've always needed them. One friend that I would like to talk about is my friend Katya. She is 13 years old and she is like my sister and my best friend. My goal for my friends in general is to have more time to be able to hangout with them. I feel that no matter how much homework I have, at the end of the day I want to be able to have some free time for your friends.

This year I am on the Ventura High School tennis team. I have been playing tennis for the past 6 years and I really enjoy it. I plan to work extra hard to get better at playing tennis and develop a higher skill for in high school and maybe further. Every day when I go to tennis I feel much appreciated; even though I am the little freshman that has pretty hair, I am still treated as a normal person.Also a part of being there every day is making sure that I have eaten a well rounded breakfast and lunch

Thank you so much for taking your time and listening to my speech. I can’t wait to see all of you guys the next four years to come. Hope to see you around on campus.
