To make the foundation, I have patented an important presence from this discipline in higher education, and for this it is important to follow the theme paths that are present in the class and their relevant contributions to evoke a critical and reflective look.

Benefits of Description
As a writer, it is essential the message is clear, and well understood. This clarity mainly comes from how the paper is worded and organized. Being a descriptive writer reaps many benefits for both the author and reader. I believe descriptive writers, such as myself, focus on the reader more than anything. Making sure the reader understands and comprehends is one of my main priorities when composing an essay. I have learned being vague comes from my assumption that readers already possess the same prior knowledge as myself. Explaining my ideas and thoughts also helps me think, which is one of the many benefits I have received from being a vivid author. Because I am a descriptive writer, I am trained to search for detail, as well as being able to communicate to various audiences, and voice my stance on a certain subject.

What I Learned Moving to College
I am an only child, and I decided to move halfway across the country for school. By myself. No family anywhere near me. It was a weird experience. I was so happy being on my own, I have a job that I hate, I have to buy groceries, I have a failing love life—oh my, God! I'm a real adult!

Questions You Should Ask When Looking for a College Apartment
Our kids are all grown up and are heading off to college. Instead of a dorm or residence hall, they’ve decided they want to get an apartment. They plan on getting a job if they don’t have one lined up already. They’re going to have a way to pay rent and have found some potential roommates. This is their first time being independent and we really have nothing to argue against this. As we join our sons and daughters to find a suitable place for them to live, here are some questions/concerns to keep in mind.

Rooting for You
People always tell you about how university is a great stepping stone to better jobs, better opportunities, and a better life. People, including schools and institutions, rarely talk about mental health, and how issues can emerge during university.

Why High School Seniors Should Carefully Consider The Pros and Cons of College
High school may seem like a time that is care-free, and a time where one is enjoying still being a 'kid’ with some responsibilities. However, high school is truly an important time, as the decisions one makes during high school, and right after, can have some extremely strong impacts on one’s future. The many routes that one can take can seem overwhelming. Do you go to summer school, and graduate early? Do you join the military after high school, or decide to go to college? Will you go to a community college, or start off at a larger university? Will you go to another city or state, or stay near home? There are many questions to answer and explore when it comes to considering the pros and cons of college. Sometimes school is the last thing that high school students want to think about, but college should be high on the priority list. Let’s explore why.
