In getting through with the end of first semester of my first year in college, I want to write about how different perspectives I owned before I really get into the college life.
Getting into the college I have applied and being a college student was very big part of mine. I always had a dream of having fun with new friends and also leading academically successful college life. However, it was somewhat different from what I have thought of and/or I might have had wrong ideas on college life.
It was fresh and exciting for me to be a college student when I first entered to UIUC. Since it was my first time to have a roommate assigned, everything was very new and I hoped everything would go well. Also registering for classes excited me because I hoped for the new (high) grades to be scripted in my new transcript.
While I had fun in getting along with my new friends, there were still lots of works to be done. Thinking that the first year would be easier than I thought of, I always completed things with ease mind and faster than any other. However, now I find that I was wrong. There were no things that I could gain without my hard work.
Having my finals left behind in next week, I am looking forward to work as best as I can and have my winter break with fun.
