Writing this makes me super washed up but it's all true.

Signs You Went to West Essex High School

Knowing no matter how many ice cubes you flushed and spoons you put under your pillow you weren’t getting a snow day.

Having to explain to people that you have a Senior Ball and a Junior Prom and there’s actually a big difference.


Waiting all year to see Mr. West Essex.


Panicking when you hear the annual rumor that there’s no senior service.


Realizing all of the stereotypes for each town are true.



Picking a driver partner senior year is just as important as picking a college.



Seeing half of the school at Sam’s or Dunkin every morning.



Spending a fortune on accessories to go with your color day shirts.



You’ve texted your parents to drop off a second Dunkin coffee/iced tea to make it through the day.


You’ve spent hours trying to get out of the senior lot


Chipotle…


You’ve bragged about how good all of our sports teams are. (especially field hockey)


The wait for a sandwich makes you question your life existence.


Yes, Cash Cash went to our high school.


The WE vs Caldwell rivalry.


When people say Cesar you think of Mr. D.


There's no better joy than seeing Albo walk into your class as a sub.


When you got called to 700 you thought about everything you've done in the past year.


Parking behind Jumpnasium junior year was great until you had to hike up the hill.



Swallowing goldfish at the Luau (except for the class of 2015).

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

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.

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.
