It was really great, up until we were sold, but I still enjoyed my time there. It's about how you deal with what life gives you and it was a real eye opener about how sudden life can change. The teachers were always available to help even in such a hard transition and they gave us as much assistance as they could.

    Ever since mom and dad divorced when I was 10, mom and I have always been close. My advise to myself as a senior would be to listen to everything mom had to say and learn from her experiences. I never knew how difficult being away from home would be until I moved 4 hours away. It was a very emotional time for me, but I matured and became independent and strong.
