New school, new adventures

For those young individuals out there preparing for the college experience, to you I say "DON'T GIVE UP!!". The thousands of text book pages, the late hours of procrastination, the unfortunate awkwardness of growing up, and the boredom of High School chemistry is worth it!!

College always seemed a far off mythical land, full of moth-ridden teachers and excruciating long lectures. I may be a dorky freshman, just floating on a cloud of innocence and ignorance, but I can already sense that this institute of learning is different. The people here want to learn and work hard (which probably has to do with the fact that all of us are paying little fortunes to now attend school). I have yet to meet the dumb jock who always cheats, or the blond (the condition not the color) cheerleader that writes an essay full of those "like totally!" sentences. People care here, and that makes me want to care. It is undoubtedly inevitable that I will get a boring class, or a moth-ridden teacher, but it's worth the risk. New people, new places, more opportunities to get lost, college is really an adventure!

In a couple of weeks I might be singing a different tune, but for now I'm perfectly content to relish in this new experience.
