First week rollercoaster ride
Have you ever had the feeling that you are on a neverending rollercoaster ride full of twists and turns and loops? You feel like you will never get off? Well that's how i felt coming to college. Trying to figure out when to leave for school so i wouldn't be late, trying to find classes. Yeah feels like im a minnow in a lake full of huge sharks. Well anyway, after you find all the classes its a matter of knowing people. I'm not like the kids who have been at college for weeks before classes started and got to know each other. Its like im imposing on their community and their already made friends, but all i can try to do is try to slide into their groups and become accepted. Then there is the fact of the class lectures. So much material thrown at me at once and i feel like im struggling to keep my head above water. It's so much different than high school and will take a while to get used to.

Ya, I am blown away at all the activities, homework, classes, making new friends, being on your own, etc that college is thrown my way all at once! I am excited and nervous at the same time, but I realize once you make some friends college becomes a lot more fun and more enjoyable! The making friends process though can take longer for some and shorter time for others. Just gotta go with the flow, be yourself, and do the best that you can ^_^ . Everything will fall into place in due time.
ReplyDeleteYA, lol sorry, don't mean to get all philosophical and stuff! Just thought to maybe help with some words of positiveness.
I do feel for you and can relate!!
I was up in the commuter area the other day and met some really cool people who were looking for people to meet. So you might try going up there and see if you can find any of them. Good luck:D
