My College Life Experience

In the near future, I expect to gain many important aspects from my college education. The first and most important thing I hope to gain from this experience is independence. In my opinion, having a successful career of your own is one of the best things you can accomplish. The best matter to never have to worry about, is depending on other people. You never know what will happen to you in the future. You always want something to fall back on something and a college diploma is the perfect answer. The last component that I hope to gain from college is a great life experience that I will never forget. This is only my first semester as a freshman, but I can already predict that college is going to give me all of these gifts.

Higher education has a variety of connotations. For some, it was the gateway out of their small town, a ticket to freedom and independence. For others, it was party central that was inconveniently punctuated by Mondays and term papers. For me, I want college to be the place where I can find myself and the sort of person I will be as an adult. I will take all the baby steps of adulthood, while still being intellectually stimulated every day with new people and new knowledge. By surrounding myself with people different from myself, signing up to take classes that truly interest me, even if they're outside my major, taking initiative concerning my finances, and making genuine connections with my professors, I plan on becoming the independent and well-rounded women I always envisioned.

Hence, I intend to maximize my college experience as I travel down this new path in life. This road won’t be without challenges, however I am confident that it will be favorable to all aspects of my life. I expect to apply all lessons I will learn in hopes of becoming an outstanding individual. As Henry Ford once stated, “If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and

Attending college will impact my life for the greater good and lead me to gain great achievements. I know as I attend college, there will be times I must step out of my comfort zone and speak up for myself. Which at times may not be easy, but thus, will lead me to become a confident and stronger person. Attending college will also widen my knowledge and show me different career routes, which will inevitably lead me to my perfect career choice. I hope to

When most people think of college, some of the first words that come to mind are majors, boards, and diploma. The problem with this is that all of those words are associated with academics. Although academics are a big reason as to why you go to college, college is so much more than that. Many different student clubs and organizations are available to apply yourself to. Being involved in more than your classes can better your college experience by widening your opportunities, creating friendships, and making connections. Being a part of a community is very rewarding and being involved on campus is an experience that will stick with you for a lifetime.

It is often very difficult to fit in with everyone, especially during my teenage years. My parents continually emphasize the importance of being responsible, thinking through opportunities, commitment to my best and not complying myself to the average teenage lifestyle. I feel that being a teenager can be hard at times because we go through so much pure pressure, life changes, and just the cruel judgment of the world. I have learned so much from that and improved myself as a person. Sometimes I find it very intriguing that I am more mature than others, but I feel it will better prepare me for college and my future. Every day is a new challenge and I am so glad that I have my family and God to take me through it. I am often told by my family how proud they are of me because I can demonstrate at a young age responsibility, discipline, and the desire to care for others.

my life as a student and becoming a teen have been hard and difficult, well now days what teenagers life isn’t hard and difficult right? i think other wise in a way i’ve learned how to deal with obstacles with school, family, and even relationships. i sometimes fail and tumble at times to where i think this is where i give up and can’t do it anymore but i have support from family and friends. growing up in school was tough in a way were i wasn’t the same person i was in middle school, i used to settle for failure and think it was okay but now failure isn’t an option anymore i choose to think failure is just another bump in the road i can over come.

Years back when I first began college I spent about 2 years pointlessly wandering through classes I didn't want to attend to please my parents. To me at the time there was no purpose for college in my life, because I had no idea what I was doing. I only felt like I was running in circles and ruining my own reputation when it came to my teachers, grades, and GPA. I couldn't find a single reason why I needed to be in college, and I eventually decided to take a break from college to figure myself out. Now that I have had a break and took time to find out what I want to do and what I need to do, I can think of plenty of reason why I am in college. Although there is, in fact, many ways to get through life without college, I have began my journey in college once again because I want to become a elementary school teacher, educationally stimulate my brain, and to be able to afford a good life in the future.

Growing up, I never saw myself as one of those people who graduate high school and then off to a four-year college they went. It was hard enough just to imagine attempting, let alone succeeding, at a two-year college. Even though, I had wondered what it might have been like to experience dorm life at a college in another town, even state. But, for me, after high school graduation, I was enrolled at the Community College.

During my first week as a freshman in college, I was still wondering if I had made the right choice for myself. Intrigued if the major I had chosen was right for me, I decided to attend a workshop strictly for product design students. I wanted to meet people in my major and also get a taste of what I had gotten myself into. On my way to the event, I ran into a girl with short curly hair that seemed lost and looking for a specific classroom. I asked her if she was a freshman and, relieved, she replied that she was, wondering if it was my first time in that maze of a building too. The URBN Center is the building where all the design classes are, and accordingly, it has an intricate system of half floors that is eye-pleasing yet confusing to get around.

Going to college is a whole knew experience, and it can be scary to some freshman. Going to college can be a great experience or it can not be a great experience it all depends on yourself. Going to college may mean bad eating habits, or there may be a high level of stress. Going to college may mean that it is the first time to be away from home all on your own. There are many aspects of being a freshman in college, and

I am not your typical college applicant. I was born in Myanmar (Burmar). I came to the United States when I was only 13 years old. I was clueless when I had arrived in America. I didn’t fully understand America’s education process. It was a complete drastic change from where I had came from. I was placed in a sixth grade class, but I was supposed to enter the eighth grade. It was something I had to get used to, because I didn’t speak english and everything was completely new. It was scary because I didn’t know anybody except my family.

Imagine yourself on the very first day of school. Entering a new environment with many new people. The thought of making new friends was exciting. On the other hand, many were afraid to step into the classroom. A fear of what was to come lingered in their mind. Being shy is common among children and is often overcome with experience. As the youngest of the family, I was very shy. I had older siblings to look up to that would do the things that I feared most. However, going to school was an experience that would encourage me to open myself up to others, which was what I had feared most.

During my college days it was standard practice of a group of us guys after we dropped our dates off at the dormitory around curfew to go to an all-night diner up the hill from the campus. We would push several tables together and chat until quite late (or early depending on hour you want to define it).
