A Letter To The CFHS Swim Seniors
Rachel Dimberio

To The CFHS Swimming Seniors,

It has been quite a journey for you all. Most of you have ben swimming for years, even outside of school and during the summer. Now it has been your final Home Meet of your high school swimming careers and some of you are planning on advancing your swimming abilities at college. But you can never forget the memories that you have made here at Cuyahoga Falls High School.

The countless hours that you have put into the pool. These are the times where you felt your best and your worst. Where you learned what team really means, and how to become a leader. This is where you showed up every day, even when you did not want to or did not feel like it.

Your team that you helped create it's image for four years. We are a team because you made us that way. The younger swimmers always look up to the older ones and that is why you showed us what to do. You taught everyone younger than you how to be a good sport and how to be a family with one another.

You have been through 2 different coaches and two different teaching styles, each one advancing your skill through hardships and victory.

You have been to countless invitationals and swim meets where you have swam your worst and your best.

You have been to many pasta dinners, movie nights, sleepovers, get-togethers, and parties where you have spent time with this second family that you have been adopted into.

And now that your Senior Night has passed, there is only a few weeks left. So please do not forget where you came from and what you did here. Because CFHS is always going to be home to you, and you will always have a family here, waiting for you when you return.

We love you all and will miss you,

Your Fellow Swimmers

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
