50 Questions I Have For Culver
Culver

It may have only been 8 months since I hung up my kilt, straightened my ring and walked through that long-awaited arch, but nonetheless, I am a Culver grad and I am proud to be one every day. The oppurtunities I was given to travel, lead, and learn is something not every high school student is given and for that, I feel blessed. However, there are still numerous questions I have for Culver, so I decided to compile a list of... The 50 questions I have for Culver!

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.

Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
