Dear Senior Me(WOW),
Am I really in college? Have I made the right choice and how will I know that I've chosen the right place?
As the days go by, I'm still in shock that i'm no longer a high schooler. I'm a college freshman, and I must start making choices on my own. Although i've technically been doing that, now its the real world(as they call it).
Will I find my group of friends or will I ever find people I can trust and will I be as happy as the TV shows and the movies that portray how American colleges and universities really are?
I guess I will.
Indeed, I actually am
Eight months later I am as happy as I can be. With an optimistic mind, and determination, I have loved where I came to be.
From sunny San Diego, to Adrian, Michigan, college has upheld my expectations very high and I'm okay with that.
To the crazy senior me, who will take on a varsity sport for the fourth year in a row, with fifteen to seventeen credits, studying two majors, one minor and the one who never fails to leave behind the Fear Of Missing Out, I think you made it.
So far, my college experience has been nothing but life changing and a learning process. From the hall mates who can still not seem to get their act together eight months later, to the lady in the dining hall who brightens up my day with the best omelets in the world, and to the college students who give one hundred percent everyday... that is what I have come to see, and I am physced to see what the next couple of years hold.
Don't stop your athleticism for anything, strive to always be better and shoot for every opportunity, because from what i've learned college is like that one phrase....
"When life gives you lemons.."
Except after it says, don't spend it on Lululemon, don't make lemonade, but use it as the chaser to chase the strongest parts of your life... because it's just the beginning.
