Niskayuna High School

Created by The Warrior’s Senior Editors: Elisabeth Chillrud, Elaine Lipkin, Ambreen Aslam, Rebecca Cropsey, Suzie Davis, Lillian Hong, Amelia Kokernak, MJ Lee, Paul Tan

2 The Warrior’s Class of 2018 Senior Supplement

Advice from our senior editing staff… “Remember to not stretch yourself too thin! Find the happy balance

between pursuing your interests and prioritizing your happiness and health, because that’s when you’ll be at your best. Also, please take it easy with the coffee.” - Lillian Hong

“Enjoy high school while it lasts, and if you can’t do that, it only lasts four years anyways. Also, get eight hours of sleep per day. Seriously.”

- Elaine Lipkin

“The most important advice I can give you is to form your own opinions and values and think for yourself. It’s easy to be influenced by your parents’ and your peers’ opinions and to lose your sense of self. Stay up to date on current events, both domestic and international; they’re more important than you think! Also, please please please relax every once in a while, you deserve it!” - Elisabeth Chillrud

“Surround yourself with people that make you happy. Spend time with those you love instead of wasting time with people that don’t help you grow.”

- MJ Lee

“Your time at Nisky flies, the end comes faster than you think. Take advantage of all your opportunities, keep up with your work and remember to enjoy all the experiences high school has to offer.” - Rebecca Cropsey

“A 36 count Maruchan only costs $3.48 at BJ’s. In other words, that’s 10 cents a ramen! But in all seriousness, your body houses your mind and your heart. If your house falls into disarray, so does the rest of yourself. Love your body. Eat the proper food and sleep the proper sleep.” - Paul Tan
