What I've Learned In College So Far
My college experience so far has been amazing. I’ve fallen
in love with New Orleans and can’t think of a better place to be. Making this
big transition into college couldn’t have come at a better time in my life than
now. There are so many amazing things happening in my life that is hard to keep
track of what day it is. So far I have moved half way across the country to New
Orleans from Connecticut. I’ve made new friends, new connections, and started a
new life. I’ve already started learning how to be more responsible and manage
my time. Being here on my own has taught me how to be independent while also trusting
in my new friends. I have met so many people that it’s hard to keep track of
all the names and faces. I love how college allows you to start over and be
yourself. It’s nice to have a fresh start.
Over my first weekend here I managed to do a lot of new
things in a short amount of time. I moved for the first time which was quite
hectic. Also I met my roommate for the first time and went out to buy stuff for
our room with him. I made new friends and went out to a concert the second
night here. It was a great way to bond with my new friends and have a great
night before school officially started. I also started to understand that the
freshman fifteen is very real and should be avoided at all costs. The cafeteria
is a dangerous place if you’re not careful and don’t work out. I also went out
clubbing for the first time in New Orleans with my friends. After a long night
of dancing I may have burned off all those calories I ate in the cafeteria.
College has also taught me how to be myself and not be
ashamed of who I am. It has given me a new start. I am now more open with my
life and I am able to share everything I have to offer. I like the feeling of meeting
new people and being able to show them exactly who I am. It has only been a
week and I can already tell that the four years I spend here are going to be
some of the best years of my life.
