*************** Hello my name is Savannah Arroyo and welcome to my Digital Portfolio! Here you will see all work from my high school life, so feel free to get comfy and browse around. The only year that I don't have work for would be my freshman year because sadly I did not attend High Tech High International yet. **** I began attending HTHI my softmore year transferring over from a school that I believe was not suiting for me. I remember the day that I discovered I was able to come to this school, I was filled with both excitement and fear. I had been attending my then current school since preschool so this was a big change that for me. I decided it was time for me to leave, and that Friday was my first day at a new school. I am so happy that I changed schools because I have done so many incredible things that I know I would not have been able to do if I were somewhere else! **** In the summer after my freshman year my father passed away and it was a very difficult time for me. I can say truthfully that it was the worst time in my life. I remember that I would cry for days on end, it seemed as though everything I had held in just came bursting out at the seems. I felt so many mixes of emotions, some that I had never felt before, and hopefully will not have to feel anytime soon, and even with all the pain that followed I wouldn't change a thing. I would not be here today if I had not gone through what I did. Sorrow is an emotion that everyone will go through at one point or another, and I am proud to say that out of my sorrow came strength, courage, and the will to persevere . |
