The different levels of high school all affect a person in some way but when you get higher up it's like a train hit you and you can't get up. The best advice is to have fun even while it is stressful because as soon as you graduate I have heard you'll miss it more than ever and I believe it. It's okay to fail a test every now and then and it's okay to not want to go to school a couple days out of the year because everyone needs a break at some point.

Yes, finals are very stressful but you will get through them and you'll get into that college. Just keep pushing and don't give up.

1. The ACT will kick your tail

Taking this test over, over, and over again is stress on a whole different level.

2. Dual Enrollment and AP classes WILL consume your life 

Homework. Every. Single. Day.

3. You have to start thinking about college

Counselors continually remind you of when scholarship deadlines are

4. The question, "What are you planning to be when you get out of high school?" is asked at least 5 times a week

Please stop asking. We don´t know.

5. Stress is a understatement 

Too much work and not enough time

6. You start to find your friend group

This happens through every stage of high school but more junior year

7. You do NOT have to have a date to go to prom

Go looking like a queen without anyone stopping you

8. Do not play around. Pass those classes

Your life depends on you passing and so does your college acceptence

9. Work hard

Work hard. It will pay off

10. You have this year and next year left

Make the best out of these two years. It will be gone before you know it

Every grade has their own challenges. Don´t take a minute for granted. You think you hate it now just wait till you get into the real world. Junior of High School is very, very stressful compared to freshman and sophomore year.

“You're gonna miss this. You're gonna want this back. You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast."

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
