Students caught by Sandy are finally able to return home

     Thirty metro Atlanta high school students were caught by hurricane Sandy while on a mock trial tournament in New York City. They left Atlanta Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. and there was no available flights back until Thursday. The students have alternative plans to take a bus. One student chose to look on the positive side of the situation. She knew the bus would take longer for her to get home, but she would get to spend more time bonding with her teammates. The concept of staying positive is key when it comes to such situations- by staying positive it helps everyone around you to stay calm. Without everyone worrying it lightens the mood of the atmosphere, making a dismal situation to more of a delightful one. It's crucial to apply this in your everyday lives; if you just focus on the things that matter and having a positive attitude everything else will fall into place. Like the students they were able to have an enjoyable expieriance...even though it wasn't the most exhilirating of activites.
