For
Freshmen—you are halfway through
your first year of high school.
You may have learned a lot of
things, and you may be wondering if
there is any more to learn. Well,
don’t count your blessings yet. You
still have five months of being a
freshman left.
To help you through these five
months, here are some words of advice
for now and later.
1. Did you, remember to greet that
senior who just passed by? Do it
next time—respect for upperclassmen
is important to your health.
2. Did you hand in your English
report that was due last Monday?
Well, do it now. Promptness is im
portant in being a leader. You’ll be
a senior someday too.
3. Did you get your detail done
this morning? Get it done—not only
for points, but to keep the place
clean.
Someday it will be yours.
4. And did you share your last
piece of bubblegum with your room
mate? Learn to “ share” everything.
It may leave you with less, but it
helps keep peace.
These little things are a small
part of your education. They may
mean little now, but later on in this
life you will benefit. Survival is for
the fittest (and the wisest!) so listen
and beware!
