A New Beginning

Beginning something different can be very scary. Being alone and learning to be independent can be a scary thing also. Going to college itself can be scary. You just have to learn how to get through it. You never know what different outcomes may come out of it. People can think different of you just because you go to college. They may say, "Oh. She think she smarter than me just because she go to college." You just have to learn how to handle them.

You face a lot of changes when entering college. One thing that changed for me was my long time relationship that I had with a boy that I truly fell in love with. He told me that because I was going to school so far away that he wouldn't be able to trust me and that he wouldn't be able to express his love 254 miles away. What I learned from it was that he wasn't worth my time anymore. He didn't deserve me. And he used the fact that I was going to college to tell me that he didn't want to be with me anymore. But I got over it. And when you get to college, you meet so many new people. You're with people that are on the same level of maturity as you are. Once you get to know these people, you don't want to go back to the friends or boyfriends you had before.

You will not only have problems back at home but you will also have problems at school. Some people have roomate issues or they feel like they don't fit in. These are things that you will overcome throughout your college life.

So now I will end this because I don't want to be late for class. But I will try to submit another update soon.
