Freshman College Experience

A personal story in the experience: I Am In College
I t hasn't only been ONE experience...more like 1,000 experiences packed into a three month time period. Not even, it's only been two months.

As it was said in the title, I'm a freshman, so I'm just getting used to the whole college thing and it's going greeaaat...minus classes, profs..kidding. But, there's so much more to a "college experience" than that. The friends I made here are amazing, sure I want to wring their necks every few days but I wouldn't be who I am without them.

Studying is a priority (obviously) but I realized if I don't get that perfect 4.0 (God forbid I don't :P) I know it's not the end of the world (until I go home.)

Not quite, it's not that bad, but the "experience" is taking up a lot of my time I could be doing work instead.

That's what I've gotten out of the college time here; it just started though. It'll change my perspective as time floats on. :)

have fun your freshman year, but sophmore year gotta start bucking down. I went to college right after high school and failed out because of the "experience" needless to say I quit untill a couple years back I started attending online school, I give four to five hours a day to my studies and homework and am not taking it for granted. I guess you live and you learn. Just remember, school isnt free, its money that eventually either you have to pay or your hard working parents....best of luck!
