Nigel H (Connection: Tenacity and College):
He talks about freedom he will have at college and being able to push through his hardships. He views these hardships as a way to better himself and get into a good college.

"I can relate to your feeling of freedom that college offers. I am the same exact way. I just want to be on my own and not having to deal with other famil member's drama. It's cool that your mom is able to help you push through the hardships, even though she can create some drama. I think it is best learning from other peoples mistakes. You get to see the results before you even do anything. I also think humanities is a great class for this type of thinking. Being able to make connections like this is important."


Brittany B (Captured Thought: Saying Good-bye):
She talks about not wanting to say good-bye after high school like we all did in middle school. She views good-bye as something permanent.

"I agree with you about good-bye's. middle school was sad for me, I don't even want to begin imagining saying good-bye after high school. It gets annoying after awhile. Making friends, changing schools and then losing those friends. You don't even have to say good-bye, people leave on their own and never look back on the memories. Everybody should think more like you. People always say that they hated high school, yet a majority of those people would go back in a heart beat if they could. Going into college not regretting anything you have done will be a great advantage. The memories will help you realize that there are positives in high school."
