Faina: Facts, Toil, and Laughter

Faina (n.)
1. A junior at Henry Clay High School who loves Spanish, the piano, guitar, working (as a consequence of habit,) her friends' different music tastes, drawing, bonding, laughter, chocolate, and vacations with her parents.

I love my family, and I want to ultimately make them proud of me with who I will have become. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a plan to fulfill that goal; I'm not quite sure what I want to do as a future career or where I want to go to college, and I am going to do some research on that...soon.
I do know that in the future, I want to play piano in front of an audience (whether it be twenty or two thousand, it'd be nice,) save people's lives, make bank, and by some great fortune, be able to get a violin-making degree at the Chicago School of Violin Making. Of course, I'm not sure if any or all of this will happen, but hopefully I'll experience some of it. As for everything else, I'm hoping that if I do enough research, something will eventually hit me. :)
Only now am I figuring out how to balance "going with the flo" and "focusing on grades," but it's better late than never. Last year, I had a lot of classes with really close friends who constantly saw me freak out about grades. Then one day, in Chemistry class, I sat down and thought to myself, "How is it possible that ______and _______ and ______and even _______can be so relaxed at a time like this?" (This was said before a test or a project, or something else.) Anyway, now I trying to take my friends' example, to work hard in school but not so hard that I'm can't enjoy or fully learn what teachers at HCHS have to say and teach me. This year, I'm going to try to maintain my 4.0, do some research for the future, and still manage to have a blast with my friends!
