The only way I can answer this is by telling you what life for me at your age was like and you can see a sort of comparison.\n1: I could go out late in the evening sit in the park with my mates and not fear being raped, killed or abducted.\n2: We had black and white TV you have colour not to mention DVD/video\n3: I had to handwrite all my homework you have word processor/printers..\n4: I used the local library for research you have the world wide web\n5: I had pen pals all over the world and had to wait weeks for a letter to arrive you with the touch of a button can communicate the other side of the world if you want to.\n6: I had to save up and buy my music however although you have to do the same with the computor you can have free music.\n7:I never had Mp3 or ipod so we could not carry music around with us where ever we went.\n8: I had to tell my mom where I was and find a pay phone you lot have mobiles and can keep in touch any time any where.\n9: I was lucky to get in to college or unni now you have lots more help and scope also you get paid if you stay on we had to get a job.\n10: We never had the pressures of of sex in fact it was sort of tabbo however not a bad thing we did not have the stress or worry.\nI can understand why you are bogged down with the negative as it is easy to do each generation comes with its good and bad points. I am glad I grew up when I did but also wished that we had the technology that you do and also the carer options especially if you are a woman. Women can do what they want nowadays and that must be an added bonus for you same pay same opportunities think about it.\nHope that helped.

I do not know what is your age. What you have written pretty well sums up what William Golding wanted to say. If you want to elaborate, write more about human nature. Its not only about evil but some strength of character and conviction. The entire novel is a symbol for life - as it unfolds, it brings unexpected, unwanted events in your life what you do with it upto you but not entitrly in your control.

You must think young.

It is my experience, especially now that I'm a teacher, that when you're young you want to be/look older.  When you're older, you want to be/look younger.  Enjoy your youth because it only happens once.

My advice for editing: a kindergartener called you a low-life inferior? use a more realistic term there... I don't know what the relevance is of the summer heat... "run" should be "ran". Get rid of the "of courses". First off, it is redundant to start two sentences in the same way back-to-back, and secondly it indicates a tone a little too casual for the essay. fix "going busting", change "can" to "could" (don't change tenses). "remembered" should be "remember", "hide" should be "hiding" .\n\nAside from all proofreading, I hate to tell you that the point of the story is moot. It is a great idea to use a story to illustrate something about yourself for college apps, but make sure that the story is applicable to what you're trying to say about yourself!\nA story about an elementary school fight is hard to relate to an epiphany about trying hard in school. Sure, you were berated, but not in a way that relates to your level of education necessarily. Maybe say something about your mother telling you to always try hard in school so that you can lift yourself to a higher place in society?\nGood luck with northeastern (if you choose it)! both my girlfriend and best friend attend, and they love it!

i am 22 right now.  Just broke up with the boyfriend, quiting my job and moving to the other side of the state.  Because right now what is important to me, is honstely me.  You need to figure out what you want to do with yourself and the person you want to be, and being young is the best time.  good luck to you

Most people who say that (particularly people who use the "best time of your life" phrase) are displaying their "selective memories."  There will definitely be some wonderful experiences, but there will be some not-so-great ones too.  \n\nThe "good" times can usually be attributed to the friends that you make and the extracurricular things you do.  "The bad" may have to do with classes, awful rommates, etc. Hopefully, the good will outweigh the bad. Sometimes, you may experience a whole semester or a whole year of "bad" followed by a full year (I'm thinking Senior year) that ends up being so packed with fun that it seems to make up for all the bad that came before it... \n\nBut, you know, *life* is made up of good and bad experiences, so you might do well to experience both now rather than later.  If you are at all ambitious, you will (and probably should) take a few classes that make you want to pull your hair out.  Consider this "the bad"  but remember that this is (theoretically) your primary reason for attending college in the first place. (If you all you want to do is party, why pay tens of thousands of dollars to do it when you could do it for free in your parents' basement...)

One could easily give you what they did of the summer but how would that help you learn.  How about I give you some suggestions for things to include in your essay.  \nFirst you need a good opening.....So you could include how you were feeling that summer is finally here.  Using a lot of DETAIL in your description.  Next include several things that you did.  Even if it was sleeping late OR catching up on some past scenes of CSI.  In these paragraphs you could include the simple events like eating or the more exciting events like a movie, or shopping or a game of golf.  In closing you could put something like...in conclusion I discovered that it is not so much of what some one does on vacation but...how well they did it.   Best of luck...remember a good grade will be from the DETAILS in your essay.   I know you can do it..

One of the most interesting essays I ever read was, "Are you lonely - or alone?"  In other words, do you choose to be alone and like it, or are you miserable that no one is paying attention to you?\n\nIt would, of course, be more interesting than funny.  But I think it could really stand you out from the crowd, who are doing more easy [and possibly C grade] subjects.\n\nGood luck!

Yes! It is the right time and the right place! Go for it! Don't hesitate!

You are posing timeless questions, the sort that have been asked in one way or another by every generation.  It is the way of the world and of life that the young are supposed to be idealistic and question what goes on around them and in their lives.  Continue to question.  You may not find all the answers, but you will learn a great deal along the way.\n\nSociety imposes certain ways and measures in order to evaluate progress.  Different societies do this in different ways.  Right now ours is focused very much on test scores, but all things in education are cyclical.  This trend has been here before, disappeared, and came back.  I believe these trends tend to run in about 30 year cycles, and you just happen to be in school during the "testing" trend.  Teenagers before you had to deal with other trends, as will those after you.  And in a generation or two the testing trend will come round again.\n\nDon't despair.  From what you have written, I think you are going places and will do well.\n\nHere is a piece of writing I have read often over the years when I feel a bit discouraged about things.  I hope you find it at least thought provoking.  Best of luck.

I think it would be easy to explain the difference in the difficulty of courses that one must take in grade 6, compared with grade 9.  I really think it would be a fun essay to compare your  feelings about; boys/girls, fashion, your parents, your hobbies, etc. I personally had such a 360 degree turn around from 6th to 9th grade.

Youths are still learning.  It is important to learn as much as you can about your world while you are still young enough to have an open mind.  I don't think you need to worry.  I think you will find the youths of your country are patriotic and that the time spent was not wasted, rather it was time learning.  There are great things ahead for all of us and I can tell you in my generation as we are all about to turn 40, now we can see some of our peers doing some really interesting things.  20s you learn, 30s you have babies, 40 you make the world a better place - there is time enough for everything.
