I was never one to think about the future and what it holds. I never imagined life after high school because I was afraid and I never knew what to expect. Graduating was quite unreal for me. I couldn’t believe I made it and that I’m finally starting a new chapter in my life.
This summer was the transition from high school to college and I was to prepare myself for the big change that I was soon to encounter. With the help of my mom, I was able to take care of my loans, registration, and getting my class schedule. We decided to print out the campus map and label which buildings I need to go to for my classes and the paths I have to take. Also, we went dorm shopping and bought anything that I needed for my room and school supplies. I’m mostly excited for school. I was nervous about making friends and finding a group to fit into. However, it’s been a week since I moved in and I’m making more and more friends everyday. I was definitely surprised how nice everyone is here. Although I solved my problem with finding friends, I’m nervous about my classes. I don’t know what to expect when it comes to college classes. I am aware that college classes are harder than high school classes so I do have to prepare myself for that and work harder. I”m here to learn and to have fun and I will make sure that I stay on track of my study while having fun and being social. Before my first day, I would like to be confident and prepared for all my classes and everything school involved. I would like to make plans to start working on my major. I am scheduled for classes that do not relate to my major so I’ll have a semester to prepare to start working on my major. |
