What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
When I meet myself, I would know I was going through an emotionally difficult time. I was not involved in extracurricular activities in high school, and I was going through an emotional time. I was worried about the college experience; if I would be too stressed out, or too pessimistic to appreciate the experience. In order to change this attitude, I would tell myself, "You only have each experience once. Take advantage of them. Enjoy them, and life will be good." I wouldn't want to reveal anything specific, because ruining the mysteriousness of the future would likely leave me unable to take the chances that allowed me to grow into the person I am today. Instead, I would try to stop looking at my life so negatively, and instead make the best of every experience. With it being my last year in high school, I would recognize the concept, knowing I can't turn back and can only move forward. I would apply this advice to change my perspective because college students only have the genuine college experience once--and I would do my best enjoy it and take advantage of every opportunity that arises.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?
