College...the place where every high school student is happy to go to because they think they have all the freedom in the world. No rules, no more living at home and especially NO PARENTS! But college is way more to that then what students think. College is an institution that is supposed to mold you to become a better person as well as get you ready for the real world. Going to college is a must in today’s world whether it's a two year college or a four year. I believe that if you want to have a good job that pays you well, then you need to have some form of higher level education above high school. Being a college student to me is a growing experience. Transitioning from high school to college life will be a hard experience but I believe that I will be able to get through it. In high school not doing your homework will get you in trouble or maybe a call home , but in college if you don’t do your homework , no one is going to call home or say anything to you. If you don’t study for a test you are going to receive a bad grade with no make-up test. Once you mess up on one test it’s hard to bring your grade back up if there are only a few tests in that class. This relates to life in general because you only have one time to do something correctly and if not you just have to keep going on with the mistake that you made and hopefully you will learn from it. College is also a good place for you to meet new people and make new friendships. You are also open to attend many programs that the college offers which give you information about different ethnic groups and social groups. For example, SCSU is having a “Chinese Moon Festival Celebration” and there it will be showing all the different traditions that china has. Altogether for me, college will be a great change for me mentally because of all the knowledge I will gain. I have high expectations for myself and I am determined to make sure that i get to and go beyond my goals that I have set.
