College is a place for people to go after finishing High School. It is supposed to help students get a degree. I believe that college also prepares us for the future, teaches us what it is like to be on your own, and is a place to start a new life and meet new people.
Some teenagers are excited to go to college and some are nervous about going to college. I, on the other hand was a little bit of both. I was excited to have more freedom and make new friends but I was nervous to be on my own and to not have my mom around whenever I needed something. The first 4 days of college went well and I met a lot of new people. The night before the first day of classes was when all the nerves started to kick in. I made sure I got all my books ready and my outfit ready for the first day of classes the night before so I didn't have to rush in the morning looking for everything. Luckily I got a good nights sleep before the first day. When I woke up I was a little nervous again because I didn't want to look like "that freshman" with my schedule out lost and having no idea where to do. But I found all of my classes okay and my first day went really well.
Going to college accomplishes everything you need for the future. I am hoping that I will get good grades in college, learn how to use my time wisely, make lots of new friends, and become independent. I know I will accomplish a lot in college because I always work to my full potential. I think I will do well in college even though it may be a little overwhelming because I am also on the lacrosse team. I am just going to have to figure out how I am going to balance out lacrosse and my school work.
