Bayside's Advice For Graduates

Here's what Bayside Patch readers had to say to local grads.

Ahead of the Cardozo and Bayside High School graduations next week, if there were any pieces of advice they had for graduates. Here's what they said:

Martha: "Unfortunately, it's all about who you know..."

Max: "Some people call it luck. But when preparation meets opportunity you have success."

Cmjake: "Don't worry if you aren't sure what you want to major in as for many students, that comes from courses one takes. There are professions you have never heard of that may be the one for you. "Follow your bliss." Try to become an "expert" in something you love. Integrity. Think of service and help to make the world a better place. Network, network, network. Most important - boost any low self-esteem. Read the poem: http://www.6bittersweets.com/2009/08/desiderata.htmlBest wishes."

Do you have a piece of advice too? It isn't too late to tell the class of 2012 in our comments section.

The local, fresh fruit and vegetable market was a worthwhile addition to Douglaston. Obviously, itRead More did not receive the support of the community, at least not enough to make it a successful venture. This is sad. Every Sunday, rain or shine, I would stop at the market and purchase something. My favorite was the bakery stand. Often, when I stopped in the afternoon I would get two FREE French breads with my purchase. Parking was never a problem. The vendors where friendly and very informative. It was a perfect setting for the picturesque nature of this community. Too bad it is not returning.

Unfortunately, according to the Douglas Manor Association, the fresh fruit and vegetable market willRead More NOT return this year. No specific reason was given other than this was at the initiative of the merchants or the market's organizers. And this..., just as we were beginning to enjoy the Long Island wines and the $34 per pound skirt steak, ordered two months in advance.
