College is the place you go to
pursue further education and it builds you more as a person. College is a whole
new experience of not only education, but also learning how to share a living
space with someone else, or maybe even two people that chances are you don’t
know. College also faces you with adult making decisions, when you're faced
with the option of going out to a party with your friends or staying in your
dorm alone to study for the test you have the following day. It teaches you to
be independent because with living in a dorm you can't depend on your parents
to clean your room, or to make your bed. You’re also faced with many responsibilities,
your parents can’t call you out of class because you missed the bus or don’t feel
well, in college, professors don’t care if you don’t show up to class because
they’re getting paid to teach whether you’re there or not. You decide if you
want to go to class or not, but if you don’t you’re also making the decision of
missing work and losing points on your final grade. Also your parents aren’t in
charge of checking your grades and setting up appointments if you need help,
that’s your job in college now and you won’t be advised by administration all
the time to check up and make sure you’re passing all your classes. In high
school I didn’t really care about my attendance or how much classed I missed,
and that’s a goal I have for myself. In college, I don’t plan on missing class
unless it’s an emergency and something very serious. I also plan on focusing
more on my school work than going out to parties every night. As a blogger, I hope
to get better in navigating around my blog and do my best at writing these
assignments so that other people find them interesting and want to read them.
