-
I was born into the world.
-
I started my education so I could learn and meet new people.
-
This was the first death I ever experienced. I was devastated because I loved my grandparents dog. I was really sad when I realized she wasn't going to be around anymore.
-
I was very sad because I had a very close bond with my grandpa. I had to be there for grandma and help her out a lot more because he was her husband so she was going through a lot.
-
I didn't like Burlington when I first moved. I struggled to make friends and I was very lonely most of the time.
-
I got my best friend this day and I was so happy that I had a puppy to play with because I had always wanted a dog!
-
I joined Student Theatre because I wanted to become an actress. It helped me make friends and boost my confidence because I was shy.
-
I was so happy to graduate elementary school because I hated it and never looked back.
-
I was really nervous but excited for high school because I could take classes I actually enjoyed and prepare for the future.
-
It was very unexpected and I went through a lot of mental health issues after my dad died. I had to take care of my mom a lot but we'd always get in arguments since my dad was gone.
-
I was very excited to get my own job so I could make my own money instead of using my family's money. But as soon as I got a job, I had to start paying my own bills.
-
This was my first serious relationship (for high school). I was really happy that I'd have someone by my side.
-
I was very sad during quarantine and I had a lot of stress on my plate because I had to do both online school and work everyday because I am an essential worker.
-
I was so excited to get my driver's license and not have to rely on other people people to take me places. I learned how to navigate better and I got to see more of Burlington from just driving around.
-
I was actually very stressed when I got accepted into all my universities because I didn't know which one I wanted to go to and I feel like I have too many options. Especially when my family is putting a lot of pressure on me to live at home when that's not what i want to do.
-
I will soon become a legal adult and be able to make decisions for myself. I am very excited to be my own boss.
-
I will have been prepared for University but I will be sad because I won't get to go to school with my friends anymore.
