Hello everyone! My name is Allison Blaser and being a senior next year will definitely be bitter-sweet for me. It'll be hard to say goodbye to the end of the era where we were considered 'just kids' and had minimal responsibilities, where it was acceptable to make mistakes and then hopefully learn from them. As always however, we're on the clock and our time is now limited. As a senior next year I feel lucky going in because for the most part, I know where I'd like to attend college. I also know that I want to be a Chiropractor so I'll major in one of the sciences for an undergrad before going on to chiropractic school. For now though, I'd like to focus on the present instead of the future!
One of the biggest pieces of my life is music. It could very well be considered my best friend. Whenever I'm having a bad day or need to get energized before a game, there's always a certain song or genre that never fails me. Any genre is perfectly fine with me and I love discovering new bands. One of the best places to do this is Summerfest in Milwaukee, and like clockwork, yesterday I traveled there and the first band we saw I completely fell in love with. Whether it's a calming melody or a frenetic track, I will always have a special place for music.
Anyone who knows me knows that I'm big into sports. At the high school I play volleyball as well as softball and then play club volleyball from November until the beginning of July. Through both of these sports I've met some astounding people that have definitely impacted my life for the better. When fall rolls around however and the NFL beings to air on t.v., it's impossible to un-glue my eyes from the set and anyone is lucky to see me out of my pajamas and off the couch on Sundays. Of course I love my athletic side, but I'm commonly spending a full day shopping at the mall or getting my nails done. Another fun fact about me is in the summer number one and two on my list is tanning and working out, as they both relieve a lot of stress. Who doesn't like being tan, lean, and mean?!
These are just few key parts of my life, but I hope you have a good idea of who I am! I look forward to getting to know everyone a little bit more and also look forward to seeing everyone in class. Happy Summer!
Allison, even though I have known you the past four years, I just now learned quite a bit about you by reading this. For example, I did not know that you were so sure of your plans after high school. It is a rare thing for someone our age to have even the slightest idea of what their lives will entail outside the walls of McFarland High School. I find it admirable that you are one of the few who know! Becoming a chiropractor sounds like an excellent goal for you and I can absolutely see you doing so successfully! It's hard to believe that we are entering our senior year of high school and getting closer to future dreams like yours. I'm excited to hopefully get to know you more during our last year together, through AP Comp and all the other ventures we will encounter during senior year. I really enjoy shopping and getting my nails done too, I must say. We should enjoy one of these things lovely pastimes together sometime over the next year!
ReplyDeleteI hear you! Senior year is going to be crazy. Summer already flew by so before you know it we will be heading off to college. Chiropractor, that’s an occupation you don’t hear every day! How did you become interested in that field of study? I know that you are really into volleyball, are you thinking about playing anywhere in college? Also football season is right around the corner! I’m not into the pros that much but I love watching a good college game. Good luck this year!
