Introduction to College Application Process
College. The word alone makes some kids start having asthma attacks. My job in this blog of sorts is to help other high school kids in their college application process. What I hope to do with this is to help even just one kid in their college application progress with the things I taught myself when applying to colleges by myself.

11 of the Worst Real Estate Mistakes People Make
Once upon a time, not too long ago, I lived in an apartment complex that had serious problems. Unlike other apartment complexes, the problems that worried tenants weren't bed bugs or plumbing. It wasn't even the issue of unkempt carpeting in the hallway.

You Want to Be a What?
Most people know what they want to be when they grow up. "I want to be an astronaut/firefighter/police officer/scientist,” etc. But I didn’t have that kind of experience. Even at 24, almost 25, I’m still having moments of, “What do I want to be when I grow up?” In middle school, the answer would have been, “I want to be a writer.” That was seventh grade when my English teacher told me I had a knack for writing fiction. Class writing assignments came back with near glowing remarks, and the confidence boost was phenomenal. In high school, I was conflicted and changed my mind to “I want to be a teacher.” That lasted until my junior year, and I thought I might like to become a therapist after taking a psychology class. I was really interested in psychological science and brain chemistry until my senior year. When I graduated, I decided that I wasn’t going to go to college right away. I wanted to take at least a year and explore myself as an adult. I wouldn’t call it a ‘gap year’ because I didn’t do any traveling. I rebelled, doing things I hadn’t had the time or freedom to do while I was in school.

How the School System Affects a Student's Potential
The limitations of the human brain are often thought to become restricted due to laziness, which is not always the case. The limitations might possibly be due to how systems of all kinds test the mental productivity of the brain. For example, the way the school system all over the United States works does not allow students to show their full potential. Schools all over the nation require various amounts of assessments to be taken that allows them to get accepted to a university, or even to graduate high school. But is the school system implementing the most effective way to give students an education? Now more than ever, we are seeing teachers just get through curriculums, and students just trying to pass instead of learning.
