Milken Community High School is more than just a high school. It is a family of students who are bonded by similar experiences that Milken has provided for them. Students who understand what it means to have an entire community of teachers, friends and even moms constantly supporting and cheering them on. Students who look forward to “Oneg" on Fridays, and become best friends with their biology teachers. These experiences unite its students and create memories and jokes that, even years later, only they can understand.

1. Neta

Four years of high school later and these books have taught us nothing.

2. Parking Tickets

Because who was actually going to pay for a Skirball parking pass?

3. Fruit Stand

The highlight of everyone’s day: chili powder, extra cucumbers, light salt.

4. Milken Mart Moms

She's everyone's mom.

5. The Senior Spiel

A time where it's finally acceptable, encouraged even, to make fun of your school and your teachers.

6. Color Wars

Did I say wars? Sorry, I meant games.

7. Yasher Koach

You got an A+ on your test? Yasher Koach. You gave a great presentation? Yasher Koach. You finished all your vegetables? Yasher Koach.

8. Deadlines

I'm sorry, what deadlines?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
