    The good old good old days, a time of peace and happiness and kind of a shady subject. First of all, when were these “good old days”? Is there a certain town somewhere in a distant corner of the world with a decrepit historical marker that plainly reads “Home of the Good Old Days”?

    Throughout elementary, middle, and high school I have never improved and gained as much knowledge about essay writing than I have in one semester of college english.

I was practicing during my previous classes with my colleagues and train myself on the basic and advanced skills, but I felt at that time that was not enough and I am not ready. When I started the training at the Community Counseling Center, I felt that there is huge information and procedures I need to know and practice related to the system, paper work, ethics and law, and therapeutic
