Composition I

Last night, was a night that I will never forget. It all started at my local high school, for a huge boy's basketball game. The game was between Lima Senior and my high school, Ottawa-Glandorf. The matchup is known as,"The Game", and its always a game that comes down to the final few seconds. Once I arrived, I purchased an arm's length of 50/50 tickets, and a game ball ticket. I placed the tickets inside my pocket and went towards my seat, pointing my attention towards the action on the court. I placed my phone into my pocket, and heard a big "bang". As I looked forward, I noticed an Ottawa- Glandorf player laying on the ground, with his face drenched with blood. The croud began erupting, and fans started pushing each other. As the conflict continued to rise, I found myself joining in on the havoc. The fight continued for another ten minutes, then the police started taking fans in handcuffs. I was one of those individuals. The police officer first asked me to clear my pockets, which consisted of the 50/50 tickets, a game ball ticket, a wallet, a phone, and my college ID. Throughout the course of the chaos, I had accidently punched a police officer. The officer in response, pushed me to the ground, and began to put me in handcuffs. This was the story of how I ended up in a jail cell. The night started with a small breakout fight, and ended with myself in jail. The result was all because I had assaulted a police officer.

As once being a fellow senior preparing for college, I realize how stressful of a time it can be. It's important to keep yourself calm, and become recognized with the significant differences between each level of education. I'm going to explain two differences, that I've experienced throughout my first year in college, and hopefully you can learn a few tips on how you can use these to your own benefit. One basic categorical difference that Hjortshoj uses in his book is, "While high school teachers are usually generalists, college teachers are specialists." As Hjortshoj explains, college professors don't follow the ideas of high school teachers, as they aren't required to follow the given state curriculum. I noticed this, as soon as I started...
