Were you born in 1994? Did you attend Watertown Public Schools? Get ready for a blast from the past!

1) Starting off at Griffin School and only staying there for kindergarten since it was so old it had to be shut down


2)The fact that Griffin School is now a CVS....


3)Switching to the brand new John Trumbull Primary School and being instantly blinded by the yellow pod.

4) Having "Multiage" or whatever it was but that meant switching classes with the 1st and 2nd graders (some 1st grader puked in my class)

5)Polk School and nothing too special about it except the fact that you knew about Judson School and the "other" kids from the other side of town went there

6) OH WAIT- Spaghetti Cake and Mr. Nelson-enough said.

7) Going to Hemingway for just 6th grade

8) The endless amount of goose poop on Deland Field when we had gym class outside

9) The period of time where we weren't allowed to hug at Swift Middle School or even touch one another in fear of a detention.

10) The extreme construction at Swift when there were no walls, ceilings or lights

11) 8th grade graduation being planned for outside then it rained then it got sunny again so we had to bring chairs in and out twice

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
