It has only been four weeks but oh, the things I learned.
Terrible: The Constant Headache.
I can't remember the last time I felt some peace. There's always a dull throb in my head, no matter how much I sleep or try to relax.
Awesome: Freedom.
I can do anything and I won't have to ask anyone. I'm my own person and I make my own choices. I have settled into that routine quite nicely.
Awesome: You Are Working Towards Your Degree.
Totally different from high school. High school was a stepping stone. It was only the beginning and this is taking you to the end goal. A career. It's important to remember that it really is worth the struggle.
Awesome: School Schedule.
This is probably the best part of college. There is nothing that I love more than only having at most three hours and a half of classes. In high school, I went to school for almost nine hours a day and this is like a breath of fresh air.
Terrible: The Work Load Is Crazy.
One moment you could be cruising by, enjoying your readings, and the next thing you know, you're bombarded with tons of assignments. You go to school for three hours but the rest of the time is likely used for the work they give.
As you can see by this short list, there are more positives than there are negatives. I am really enjoying going to college thus far. I can't wait for the rest of the year, and I hope you are excited about it as well!
