They were intimidating. They were so tall I had to stand on my tiptoes to see over them, dodge and turn sideways so I wouldn’t be squashed. They were prettier, laughed more, talked more. I wanted to be one of them so badly. These were my thoughts about GACS seniors in sixth grade, when my sister was... Read more »

Almost November already? Where has the time gone? As much as I’m enjoying myself here, it doesn’t seem like I’ve been here long enough for teachers to start talking about term papers and semester averages. I feel as if it were “just yesterday” when I was trying on my GACS uniform for the first... Read more »

New Student on Campus MONDAY morning, six a.m., and there’s a ringing in my ears. I’m pretty sure I must have moaned pretty loudly and unpleasantly at that point. After reluctantly crawling out of the bed, I groomed myself and put on my uniform. Ready to go, I hit the road and spent the next thirty... Read more »
