I expected college to be tough due to the fact that all the teachers were like this wouldn’t slide in college, but in my opinion, college is 10 times better than high school. I really enjoy the social aspect of college and getting to meet new people. One way I meet new people is through intramurals. I play volleyball and softball in this block, and I have already met a lot of new people and I like it because I get to be with friends and meet new people. I also enjoy intramurals because they keep me active. I remember last year’s finals week or the week before we had intramurals and I looked forward to it just to keep my mind off finals for an hour. I think me being a commuter student kind of sucks due to the fact that you can’t get the “full college experience”, but I also enjoy seeing my family every day.
I think the academic side is always going to be tough for me while I struggle with school, but so far, I’m keeping up in classes and not falling behind which is key. I think something else I’m proud of is making connections with teachers. I think this is one of the most undervalued things due to the fact that people are scared to talk to their professors. I think talking to the professor if you’re struggling or need help shows them you actually care about the class. In the past making these connections with teachers actually helped bump up my grade when I was in between an AB and A.
