I have really high expectations for my college experience. I want to squeeze every ounce of anything and everything I can out of it. College just seems like it is going to be a great experience, but I don’t want to have too high of expectations because I don’t want to be disappointed.
There are so many things to do while at college like join a sorority, clubs, etc. I just don’t know what I would want to do, extracurricular wise. I feel like I will join clubs because it is a good way to meet people and expose myself to different things.
When I talk to my older brothers, Aaron and Tristan, they tell me that they like college way more than high school, in some aspects. Aaron specifically told me that he knows I would like college life because it is independent; like living on your own, etc. Being away for college is something that I want, but not as far away as my brothers are. I want to be close enough to home so it isn’t difficult for me to go home when I would like to, but I don’t want to be close enough to where my parents could be completely in my business. I want the full college experience: living on campus, joining clubs, going to school events and more.
When it comes to my major I know what I want to do: I am going to major in Pre-Med. My dream is to become a doctor, I am not completely sure what kind of doctor: OB/GYN, Pediatrician, Podiatrist or Neurologist, but I’ll make up my mind during med school. Since I enjoy medicine and everything medical I know I will have fun going through the Pre-Med program at whichever school I choose. I do realize that the program won’t be easy, but what major is? I am looking forward to college being challenging, I like challenges, especially academic ones because it improves my way of thinking and tests my knowledge and my ability to gain and retain it.
All in all, I really can’t wait to go to college. I have an idea of how it is going to be but I can’t be sure it will be exactly how I picture it. Sometimes I don’t want it to be how I picture it because I want to be surprised, there’s no fun if you already know what’s going to happen. I look forward to making new friends, trying new things, learning great information and ultimately, enjoying it.
In my personal opinion I want to be further away from home because I want to get like a new start on things. I don't want to be tied to the past. College will be difficult, it is a challenge because if it wasn't then everyone would get accepted and everyone would be successful in lif

ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more. Just like any new experience or challenge we choose to take on, I believe that it's important to take advantage of the opportunity to make it worthwhile. How often do we get a chance to go back and change things or do things differently? Not often. Which is why I encourage everyone to make their college experience memorable and beneficial.
