William Floyd High School is a lovely high school on the eastern end of Long Island with about 3000 students. There are one high school, two middle schools and six elementary full of students. Although we all know what we went through in that high school.

1. Football

We all know the football games were everything during the fall. Every game whether in the rain or snow during play off season we were there cheering on the team. The team definitely has had its up or downs, definitely during the time I was in high school but forever and always Floyd Football.

2. North and south lobby

Each lobby was always packed and you had to pick which one you were going to hang out on. We posted our spot and in between each class you would meet up with your friends and stand there until the principle chased you out and made you go to class.

3. The dungeon

Although it isn't there anymore but before they built the new wing 9th and 10th-grade cafeterias were in the basement and were royally known as the dungeon. Sorry if you missed that stage but its probably for the better.

4. The new wing

I don't know if its called the new wing anymore, but when it was first built it had all the good spots to skip class (not that anyone should do that). I remember everyone hanging out over there when they didn't want to go to science or math. PSA don't skip class, go and learn something.

5. Manhattan, Ninos, TJs

Every day after school, everyone would walk out and either go straight to Nino's the pizzeria, Manhattan Bagel or TJs hero shop for something to eat after school. You would see half of the school in each place getting something before they had practice for whatever sport they were playing.

6. Volleyball in gym

We all know in gym class when your team would win in your gym, either the east or west and then verse each other. Must I say, my team won one year.

7. Music Wing

It seemed like every week you heard about either chorus, the band or orchestra winning an award. My tuba and singing skills didn't last long in school but keep up the good work.

8. The teachers

I never had a bad teacher in all the four years I was there. Every single one cared and wanted to help. Those connections stay strong forever I highly recommend staying in contact with them they can definitely help you out down the road.

9. The walk from south to north

Senior year when you finally got to drive school was the best feeling, but having to park your car in the south lobby and having to walk around the school to the north was the worst experience that still haunts me. In the freezing cold and snowing out was no fun or when it started to get warm again and sweating by the time you made it to other side.

10. Pep rally

Probably my favorite day out of the whole year. Practicing all day and finally getting to preform in front of half of the student body was an amazing experience and wish I could still preform every year.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?

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!)
