    the phrase " just be cringey, go and make the memories. you would treasure these memories for life" is such a good prospect i honestly LOVE it, it make me think about things in a different way

    what are your pros and cons of boarding school?

    • @user-ob4bh4dw8k
      @user-ob4bh4dw8k 11 місяців тому +1

      For me: I would say you have a lot of independence and responsibility and creative freedom of how you want to portray yourself without your background or your parents affecting it. You meet a lot of people and have a lot of fun trips, but the cons would be there is a lot of drama and the staff can be quite annoying. Plus it is very easy to get suspended or expelled.

    hi rachel, curious what age did you start attending boarding sch? in hindsight, would going early or later be better in your opinion?

    • @racheltong
      @racheltong  9 місяців тому +1

      I went when I was 15, going into my sophomore year. in my opinion it would be best to go as a freshman to get the full 4 years of high school. But still, it honestly depends.

      ahhh i don’t know your parents so idk if i’m the right person to give advice… but make sure you know why you want to go and show that you are responsible. let them know (either talk to them, write an essay, make a slideshow, etc.) how much you want to go and just pray that the best come out of it …

    • @racheltong
      @racheltong  6 місяців тому +1

      first of all, good luck!! 7 roommates are definitely going to be tough and there will definitely be mean people. know your worth and remember that people tend to pick on others based on their own insecurities. so instead of feeling bad about yourself, look at the bigger picture and try your best to be kind to others. at least that’s what i try to do myself. wish you all the best!
