Senior year was the last hoorah my friends and I had together before college. The first day of senior year I walked into school, it was almost as if I could smell the freshly pack of new pencils being opened. I could hear the squeak of the girls new flats on the floor and the music coming from everyone's headphones in the hall. It was a refreshing thing to see the faces of people I had known my entire life. My grade was very close knit and I am so grateful for that.
Every year we have the homecoming football game. Football is definitely the most respected sport at Tuckahoe. The night before the game we have a parade and bonfire. The atmosphere during this time makes me feel so at home. Getting ready for the parade you hear people's laughter

    From the time a five-year-old steps into their first day of kindergarten till the day they graduate from college, they will hear “you are our future, our next generation, the people who will change things” from elder ones.

    College Writing And Reading For The Incoming Freshman The transition between High School and University writing can be challenging to the ill-prepared student. In high school we might have gotten great feedback from teachers about our work: “great job”, “very good” etc, but in college our professors might comment differently most likely because they are searching for something different in college writing.

The most significant differences are visible in structure, research, argument, and format. In college writing, we move away from the standard…

When I was a chubby little freshman with glasses I thought to myself that high school would be one of the longest time periods of my life and that four years would feel like forty years. But man was I wrong, high school went by in the blink of an eye.…
