What was your most memorable moment as a CFS student?

I was a ninth grader in a mixed cottage. So it was like, seniors, juniors, sophomores. And then there's like, two rooms of freshmen. I was one of the freshmen out of the four. It was wild like I was exposed to so much and a lot of craziness that I wasn't ready for but we had so much fun. We were probably the cottage of misfits but like, I don't know how else to describe it. It was so memorable. One of the bigger things that happened that year was that we had water balloon fights between cottages. So that was like super fun, and we never lost. I was in Woodside, we were so good at water balloon wars that other cottages were ganging up on us. Three cottages versus Woodside, and we still wouldn't lose. So it was like mad fun and towards the end of the year people started taking it too far. They like started filling up water balloons and bringing them to school. After school, they'd try to catch someone lacking. It became overly serious but it was still fun because of that reason...Eventually, they had to stop it just because people just complain too much...That was my experience. I always remember CFS is that fun, that like community that we we had who inside like

What values did you learn when you entered CFS?

I learned the value of personal relationships. As soon as I got to college, I would be talking to my friends at CFS. Everything was so different. And I didn't realize or understand. Like, I didn't understand at the time, how important those relationships would be. I realized that... I'm not going to have the same bond as my brothers... The important part isn't necessarily what school you go to or how high your grades are, it's about the people.
