Oh, high school. It feels just like yesterday, right?
You've been on your own for quite some time now, though.
You're finally getting accustomed to having more responsibilities on your plate, you've met new people at a new place and it's been a time of experimentation to say the least.
Through it all, you're realizing that the more you grow, the more you begin to know.
Every experience has a lesson that you should keep.
So take a seat, because we're about to get deep:
1. Naps really do give you the kick-start of energy that you need.
2. Exercise – it's better to start earlier than later.
3. Humility is noticed.
4. Involvement on campus cultures you.
5. Don’t be scared to express yourself.
