Seniors

Joshua Huang

Joshua Huang
Senior Joshua Huang is one of many MVHS students who centers his goals around his work ethic.

“I planned my schedule out so it would be easier compared to junior year, so I kind of expect [this year] to be easy,” Huang said. “I want to be more diligent in my workouts for baseball [and] study more for classes.”

“[I’m fine with being] either introverted or extroverted, given the circumstances, I guess,” he said of his personality. “If I feel comfortable I’m extroverted. With my friends, like playing baseball.”

Trying new things is a mindset senior Gokul Pillai hopes to adopt for a more positive senior experience.

“[I want to be] able to relax and not take too many tough classes to the point where I can enjoy my classes rather than just stress all the time,” Pillai said. “Non academically I want to like definitely go and explore things more. I’m playing basketball again this year because I have more time for that.”

“I think my favorite thing is being okay with not knowing everything that’s going to happen,” he said when asked about what he’s optimistic about. “I’ll probably change because I’ll learn a lot more, but I think it’ll become more of a challenge. I’m just looking forward to a really eventful senior year, and I hope I can really make the most of it.”

This year, senior Tejasri Sunchu hopes to make her senior year a memorable and fun-filled one.

“I was expecting [senior year] to be the best year [of high school,] and so far it’s been true,” Sunchu said.

“I just want to keep a positive attitude going in since I am kind of nervous with everything. [I’m worried about] college apps and all the stress that comes with first semester senior year, but I just want to see myself at the end of senior year and know that everything turned out okay,” she said. “I just keep a positive attitude and push away the negative thoughts.”
