Well, guess what, seniors? The day is finally here; we’re graduating!
Congratulations to all of you on this momentous day. No more of the
same old, “remember when…” I am here to give you advice for the
future: 4 ways, in fact, to success.
1. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE
Learn from your past mistakes, do not put off assignments till the
last minute, literally. In high school, we were able to bust out a
five page research project six hours before it was due, no problem. we
even pride ourselves on this skill. But in college, and even at work,
when so many assignments are due at once, there is no time to put it
off! When you guys receive an assignment, start on it right away-
believe me, it will pay off.
2. Socialize with new people
these mundane high school cliques stop here; no more of the Asians,
the cheerleaders, video-gamers, the muscleheads, etc. When you leave
here, branch out to new and different people. Diversify your network
of people and break that comfort zone of people who are just like you.
Gain experience from building your network and being open-minded. Who
knows, one of these new friends might end up becoming your best friend
or even your sweetheart.
3. Sleep whenever you can!
sleep is going to be one of your most wanted desires in life as an
adult. School alone,is going to take up more than half of your time;
and when you also have a job and student groups to organize, there
leaves less and less time for quality sleep. So keep yourself healthy,
avoid becoming too stressed and rejuvenate yourself to nice nap when
you can. After all, your health comes first.
4. Forget all those troubles in high school
Take all that drama, hurt, and bull and leave it when you graduate.
Graduation signifies you leaving your elementary and central stages of
life. Take only the knowledge and wisdom—not the fighting and
hostilities. From now on, YOU are a whole new person—someone educated,
refined, and most importantly, ready. be who you want to be and Good
luck, to all of you guys, in the future.

#4 is the best one haha. I like how you went on a last minute blogging rampage. Good advice, although I don't know how well I will follow #3.
