If you think about it, freshman year seems like it was just yesterday. When we came to high school, we were only 14 or 15, and knew very little. In our senior year, we have learned a lot from our high school years, and we are continuously forced to grow up more and more. Growing up is not always fun, but the lessons we learn from it make it all worth it. If you could tell your freshman self one thing, what would it be? What would you want to tell your future self, based on how much you have learned so far?]]> 2019-09-22 02:00:51 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/387671122 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390489377 hey freshmen me.

In the long run, the little things I stressed about will not be important in comparison to the big things I did to follow my dreams. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490621 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490655 If I could tell my freshman self one thing, it would be to always respect my parents. No matter what, they truly love me and want the best for me, so it is important to listen and trust them. Your parents will always help you with your problems when nobody else can.]]> 2019-09-27 12:11:43 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490655 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490701 I would tell my freshman self to believe in myself more and that I should have understood that putting myself out there isn't always a bad thing. For future Christi, all I ask is that my family and friends are more important that the responsibilities I take on in college.]]> 2019-09-27 12:11:50 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490701 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490739 If I could tell my freshman self one thing, it would be to not stress over the things you can't control. Don't worry about what other people are doing, or what teachers are doing, just focus on yourself. Take deep breaths and follow your heart. Also, I would probably tell them that everything works out in the end. You'll get into the college you want to and you'll do what you want to do. If I could tell my future self one thing I would tell her that you've made it this far. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490739 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490784 Dear Freshman self, you could have done more. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:12:02 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490784 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490850 If I could tell my freshman self one thing, it would be to quit field hockey. I was by far the worst player on the team and there was no reason for me to continue playing. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:12:14 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490850 20arnolde https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490939 Dear freshman Evan, 
SLEEP! Do not let anyone tell you what to do. If you want to sleep, do it. Whether you are in the back of class, you are at home, or you are just feel like it, lay down on the ground and go to bed. It makes it easier if you carry around a blanket and pillow in your car or locker. That way the comforts of you own bed are never too far away. 
P.S. Invest in that old Musically app. You won't regret it. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:12:27 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390490939 alr2 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390491023 If I could talk to my high school self, I would definitely tell myself to not worry so much about the future or what everyone else thinks. After many many years out of high school, every thing works out for a reason. I think I would give my future self the same advice. Worry less. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:12:39 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390491023 20blancharde https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390491363 Dear 14-year old,
Pack your own lunch. Although your mother is good at many things, packing nutritious lunches is not one of them. If you want to have energy to get through the day and go to track practice, make your own sandwiches.]]> 2019-09-27 12:13:16 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390491363 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390491387 Dear freshman self, appreciate the little things. They are what makes life better, they are what makes a good day. Look for one good thing in every day even if you have to look a little harder some days. ]]> 2019-09-27 12:13:21 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390491387 20mancusob1 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390635505 Dear freshman self, believe in yourself more. Don't worry about what others are doing or fitting in, and just be friends with everybody. Having self confidence makes life so much easier and more rewarding. Just enjoy the present and don't stress about the little things. I would also tell myself to spend more time with my family and enjoy it because leaving them will be harder than you think. Dear future self, I give the same advice to live life to the fullest and take those risks that might be out of your comfort zone because you can do it and deserve every opportunity. Keep people around that truly care about you and have your best interest. ]]> 2019-09-27 16:11:41 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390635505 20ermea https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390635565 If I could tell my freshman self one thing it would be not to focus on what everyone else thinks of me. ]]> 2019-09-27 16:11:46 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390635565 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390635720 If I could tell my freshman self one thing it would be to attempt not to stress as often. High school does not have to be the best four years of your life. If you have those years now what about the next four years, or the following four years? Instead, I would tell myself to have fun and only worry about the present. ]]> 2019-09-27 16:12:01 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390635720 https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390638681 If I could tell my freshman self one thing it would be to find a best friend that will always be there for you. Don't continue to be someone's friend just because you have been friends for a long time. I would say to hold your mom close each day, and tell her you love her, just so she remembers. I also recommend that you build a time machine and go back to 7th grade AND QUIT CALLING YOURSELF LINDA. It is not cute, nor funny. Cut out the jersey accent while we are at it. 
To my future self, I tell you to stay calm and keep those who love you close. Be kind to others, but first be kind to yourself.]]> 2019-09-27 16:16:59 UTC https://padlet.com/20harrisj/igd2hrwhe7ox/wish/390638681
