School is an awesome time. Those of you who are going through school and are hating it, believe me, you will miss it. I'm in college, I'm a Junior and as I'm approaching graduation I am slightly scared because it will be the first time that school wasn't my priority. I'll be thrust into the business world.So make the most of your school years and join a club, sports team or get involved at your school by doing yearbook or student government. In high school I was apart of the On Point Dance team.

Right now I am apart of a sorority called Sigma Alpha. It is a professional agricultural sorority. I am also apart of Society of Ag Managers. Getting involved as not only allowed me to add things to my resume but also meet and befriend people who are like minded. Do extracurricular activities are important if you are interested in scholarships, getting into good schools or wanting to make your resume look good to a potential employer.

Also, while I do encourage you guys to go to college, college is not for everyone. College is hard work and only work out for those who are motivated and have passion. With the way the world is now, a Bachelor's degree is the new high school diploma. I come from a low income family, I'm the first generation in my family that is pursuing schooling after high school. I work hard to put myself through school. Mostly from getting good grades and getting involved in activities I have been able to get scholarships, which has funded most of my schooling. And since I come from a low income family I have received federal financial aid.

There is no excuse to not go to college. And there is no good excuse to do bad in your pre-college education. Education is important no matter what you plan to do in life. I don't care if you plan on graduating high school and then just work. I'm a firm believer in doing everything, whether you hate it or not, to the best of your ability.

Do well in school and enjoy it while it lasts.
