Life Changing Graduation “Are you ready for the world to come?”
That was what I asked my sister when she was getting ready to graduate High school. Running through my head the thoughts and feelings were sad and happy but most of all it was the feeling and thought that I was going to miss my older sister.
“Yeah I think I’m ready for what the world throws my way. I know I’m nervous about leaving and going to college though. Having to move away from you, mom, and dad is going to be the hardest thing to do.” Having her say that I looked up to see tears start to build up in her eyes.

Today is the day of my sister 's Graduation party. Having to get up at like 7am is never fun but at the end of the day it will be worth it. We had to get everything ready for the party at 11am. We had to get all the seating, food, beverages, games, and our recreational vehicles all out and ready to go. 1st was seating, 2nd was beverages, 3rd was games/ recreational vehicles, and last was the food. The guests started to arrive within 10 minutes to the party time. Soon we were parking on the grass beside, in front and behind our house. The sound was already hooked up all I had to do was press play. Our grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, neighbors, friends, and some people from my sisters graduating class came and enjoyed the party. My friends and I used the recreational vehicles and played on them. When it turned like 3 or 4 people started to go home there were people going home before but not the majority of them. My sister had to go to bed for school the next day and so did I but my friends spent the night in our living room. Lucky they had close for the next day of

    Looking back on it, on how I got to where I am. I don't know how i did it, when you run into something ,with the power to knock you down- you get back up! I've considered myself a sort of mellow guy, but I can be very intense. It's funny because you can't tell by looking at me. Most people say they can't read me, but I think i am a fairly simple guy.…

    Growing up I was always the tallest kid in the class. Whenever class picture day rolled around, I knew that I was in the front of the line because of my height. It was somewhat embarrassing when all the boys were shorter than I, and the girls made me feel bad for how out of place I was. Not only did my height provide social awkwardness, it also administered the constant, never ending struggle of finding garments long enough. Whenever my mom or grandmothers wanted to take me back to school shopping, I made excuses of “I don’t need any more habiliments” or “I do not feel good, all of the sudden…”…

    When I moved to Springfield Township from Cheltenham Township, I really despised the sudden change. I disliked almost everything about it but what I did not know at the time is that by my senior year I would eventually love this school as I molded it into a place that I wanted to be at. During the end of my freshmen year, I found myself with a new view of how I was going to cultivate at Springfield Township High School.

However, I managed to hold myself together because I knew there was always going to be a tomorrow and I needed to be prepared for it. As my peers were doing well, I on the other hand, was not looking so relaxed.…

    When entering junior high, we were constantly reminded by teachers, parents, and school administrators how different it was from elementary school. It was supposed to be the start of a transition from childhood to young adulthood, and though I discounted many of these sentiments at the time, looking back it certainly was. In an instant, it seemed, everyone started swearing and the hallways began to smell of a putrid mixture of not enough or too much cologne. For the first time we had to change before gym, no one really sure whether it was more socially acceptable to change in a bathroom stall or feign confidence by doing it out in the open. Talk swirled of who got their periods, who was wearing what bra size, and which boys needed to stop cultivating…
