Money--how I wish you grew on trees.

Guys, we're in highschool. We're about to be hit by a tsuanami of expenses--application fees, SAT costs, AP/IB exam fees, college tuition, car payments, cell phone bills. Really, the depressing list goes on and on.

What can we do?

There are forms you can fill out to be eligible for free/reduced lunch, and there are means through which you can get financial assistance when it comes to paying for multiple AP exams and SAT tests.

Here's the paradox for most high school students: during the school year,
we can't wait for vacation, for a chance to breathe and appreciate the
finer things in life (i.e. our TVs, the absence of alarm clocks, reading

Well, because what you're doing right now is paving the foundations you'll be standing on, clinging, and reverting back to for the rest of your life: you've been exposed to the world and you're evaluating it based on your own experiences, your likes and dislikes, your virtues and your standards. Your character is now well defined in that you have a sense of who you are, what you want, what you stand for, and where you fit into this fray called life.

Looking for work experience? Musing over ways to impress the big universities? Searching for some way to satisfy your desire to be someone of consequence, to be someone who's vital to his/her community, who exemplifies the best of the best? I think I've derived a solution...take a seat, this is big. Volunteer! Get out there! There are limitless possibilities for youth who want to get involved, who want to have a positive impact on the people they're surrounded by.
