    The High Life In high school peer pressure is stronger then ever. Students are critically judged by their peers and are forced to either compromise one’s own moral values to fit into the group or face being ostracized and out casted. Students sometimes feel backed against a wall and following the group is sometimes easier than going against the grain.

    High Life Stages

    In our Health Science class, they challenged us to make a power point explaining the 12 stages of life. I never knew just how many stages it took our bodies, and minds to develop. At the point of pre-birth, we are just a blank canvas we can be changed into any type of lifestyle, but to me I find that once we are taught that changing is the hardest thing to do. Birth as always is painful but truly a blessing. No matter all the money, contractions, and hormones that are creating a tornado in your body

    When people used to tell me that high school would be the best four years of my life, I never seemed to believe them. Looking at where I am today makes me believe them when they say that high school will also be the fastest four years of my life. It is crazy to even think that just yesterday I was mentally preparing myself to walk into the doors of Lasalle Peru High School, and today I am mentally preparing myself to walk out of the doors of Streator High School.
