My Trip On North Carolina State University

The weather cleared up and me, along with my entire class and teachers, got to enjoy a beautiful ceremony. Lining up we started to proceed out to the football stadium from the gymnasium, my mind would not stop thinking. I just could not stop remembering what it took for me to get to this day. The stress that I endured studying for the SAT, filling out my applications and most importantly, perfecting my essay. The idea that I was not going to be living in this beautiful town I have spent my life in, brought a flood of emotions. Thoughts of my friends not being by my side next year made me feel as if I was sinking into a deep hole; this place, this town has had so much to offer to me. The past two years that I had spent in this place were the most emotional and exciting times of my life. I knew even though I was not going to be waking up in my familiar place anymore, I would be waking up in what was to become my new familiar place. I knew that even though my friends would not physically be there with me every day, that they would be there when I called them. If it were not for all of the people I have met along the way, I do not think I would have ended up where I am today. It just is a common thought for whenever I get sad about everything ending, I remind myself that there is a new beginning coming and it is going to be amazing. The place that I have spent my whole life

I wanted to do well in college. I didn't have to ride trains or worry about the violence, but more about reaching my goals. On the first day of class, the campus was full of people, all travelling in different ways all with the same ideal destination in place, class. Unsure of where to go or even the name of my building, I was lost. As I searched for my class, the campus seemed confusing and huge. I looked around with a nervous expression plastered on my face and I sat on a bench near my dorm. I felt defeated by life. I kept second guessing college entirely, when a familiar face appeared. It was a girl from my hall who I bonded with since we had the same class. She said “If you are lost, you can just walk with me” and we took off. Her small gesture made me on time for class and saved me from an emotional breakdown. As I look around campus today and notice people who seem lost, I offer them directions and even shortcuts on how to get there. The feeling of being lost and unsure brings failure to my heart. Doing small kind gestures for strangers could change their entire day, which brings me priceless joy.

Winning the title as Miss Hispanic Delaware helped me find my passion. I got the opportunity to intern as a host for a bilingual TV show called “Que Bien.” Que Bien allowed me to grow and gain the confidence that I was missing and embrace my Hispanic culture. Through Que Bien, I got to travel to different cities in the Delmarva and Philadelphia area. I also got the chance to interview politicians, Latino and American music artist, and citizens from the area. From that point on I discovered my passion for television. Once I got accepted to the University of Alabama all I wanted to study was broadcasting. As a first generation student attending a University was already a dream. However, due to financial reasons my parents encouraged me to join

Throughout our state and our nation, there are a variety of options when it comes to higher education. In the state of North Carolina, one of the many community colleges is Fayetteville Technical Community College, also referred to as FTCC. One of the many universities in our state is the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, which is also called UNC-Chapel Hill. I chose these two institutions because they are two of the places I am looking at to get my various degrees. When looking at these two places of education, we can see that there are many similarities, but there are also differences.

This year’s family vacation was one for the books. With my aunt living in Tennessee, we do not get together as often as we would like so my family decided to go to Nashville, Tennessee. When we started our trip, it was 6 a.m. and it was nothing short of fun and laughter along the way. Never having been to Tennessee before, I figured I’d enjoy the eight-hour ride of sight-seeing and laughter with my family. When we were a few miles into the trip, the mountains of Georgia were breathtaking. While I was enjoying the scenery, another thing that I found enjoyable about this trip was the conversation that I had with my family. We went on talking about life in general, all the struggles, and childhood memories that we had. We even talked about years

“We are moving to Arizona. It’s your decision whether or not you come with us.” As a seven year, old girl, this was one of the hardest things to hear from the woman I was supposed to trust most, my mom. I had to make a decision whether or not to move across the country with my mom and a stranger, or move in with my dad and stay near my family. I immediately responded with “I will be staying in Massachusetts”. Although I knew that this decision would flip my world upside down, I didn’t know how much I would personally change because of it. In that moment, I didn’t know that I wouldn’t be seeing my mom for another year. I didn’t know that our relationship would never be the same again. That one sentence changed the whole course of my life. In that split-second decision, I went from a seven-year-old little girl, blind to the reality of life, into a mature young girl forced to swallow the idea of her mother leaving her behind.

North Carolina Central University has a very immense history that includes very important information about what the institution has to offer. Mr. Jalen Baker spoke about where our institution has come from and the relevance to what we are today. He presented the university’s past and introduced the present to new students. Mr. Jalen R. Baker is the Assistant Coordinator of the Student Engagement and Leadership department. Mr. Baker is one of the heads of the Student Activities Board here on campus. That organization is over any extracurricular activities hosted here at the university. During Mr. Baker’s presentation he gave a lot of vital information that can be put to use in all of the student’s lives here on campus.

Driving down the interstate with my brother and girlfriend while my parents and younger brothers drove along behind me, I was starting the journey into the rest of my life. We pulled onto campus and many of the current students helped move all of my belongings into the old rooms of Pembroke Hall. After a few hours of rearranging and settling myself in we hit the town. The rest of my day was spent with my girlfriend and family eating dinner, going shopping, and spending a few moments together before they had to leave. After hours of fun, loving conversations and one incredible meal it was time to say goodbye. This was the first difficult step in what became a surprisingly difficult first week. Homesickness never came to mind when thinking of college, but soon enough I learned that that was going to be a large part of the beginning experience. I tried my hardest and made it through the first week unscarred, for the most part. However, home was calling my name. I loaded up a bag and made my way to the highway. As I made my way down the interstate in my old Ford I tuned my radio to the first country station I could and that is when I heard it. F.G.L.’s May Was All was playing through the load speakers. Immediately drawn in, I was careful to listen to the words. It is rare for lyrics to speak to me directly in such a way, but these lyrics were

There are four major challenges that North Carolina State University students face in a day to day life. Those four are academic challenges, time management, social challenges, physical challenges. North Carolina state university has a rigorous course schedule and can cause major stress on students especially first-year students, all who are trying to learn the vast campus, make friends, form study groups, and excel academically; while also adjusting to the independence that any college brings.

North Carolina State University was founded in 1887 with the mission of promoting social and economic improvements. This land-grant institution focuses on the agricultural and mechanical sciences. Some of the most successful research programs are found in the design, math, science, technology and engineering departments. In order to provide students with research opportunities while helping the community, North Carolina State University partners with various nonprofits, industry organizations and government agencies to identify and solve problems. Students are provided with experiential education through co-ops, internships and service opportunities.

The first time I went back home after coming to college was a rollercoaster of emotions. After arriving home I was embraced with open arms by my mom and dad. This was the first time I had seen them since being dropped off at college and I suddenly realized how much I missed them. I called every so often but being in my own home being able to talk and with them was something I hadn’t ever experienced. All of my worries about homework and future exams were gone and I got to enjoy the company of my parents. At the beginning of college I constantly felt like I couldn’t be myself. Coming home these feelings vanished because I was surrounded by those who loved me. After spending a few hours catching up, I went to reconnect with my high school friends.

Waking up on Sunday July 10th, I knew that I was going to leave my bed, my family, and my friends for six weeks. I knew that I was going to miss everyone, but I also knew that I was leaving everything behind and chase my future. I knew that on that morning I would be arriving at Rutgers Newark for the Summer 2016 EOF Nursing Program. What I did not know was that I was going to meet the best group of people from the EOF program and whom I would now consider my family. I was never really close to many people, but now I am. This all started due to the retreat. Before the retreat, we all entered the program and became acquaintances. We knew faces, but we never really knew some people’s names. We knew everyone was here to become a nurse, but we

Graduation day arrived and I had butterflies out of this world. It seemed as if I misplaced everything. I could not find my dress. My family came from one state to another. I finally got to the church were the commencement was going to be held. I

As the end of the night approached us, I couldn’t stop thinking about how many mixed emotions I had about starting a whole new chapter in my life. I couldn't wait to go to college, meet all new people, get a degree so that I could start my career path, but I knew that meant I had to say goodbye to my two best friends, who were moving several hours away from me. This was one of the hardest things I had ever had to do in my life. We all cried a little, and then made promises to keep in touch, and then we were off into the real world! I was very happy to be at this point in my life, but I was scared deep down inside.
