High School and College Life
There are many students who attended college an it changed them both physically and mentally. I am one of those students. Since I began college it started to change me into a better person on many occasions. I have learned to become more responsible, and get the work done. In addition I have to change my attitude or else I will fail my courses; for example my classmate start skipping classes and misbehaves with the professor, which lead him to fail the course.
Moving from high school to college is a huge step in everyone’s life. If you don’t change your lifestyle for the better reason then you might not reach your goal in college. Once you reach college it’s the time that you start being an adult. The college life has changed me for the better. I am much more responsible in many different ways. I had to change my study habits, or, should I say, I had to get engaged in study habits. In high school I never studied because everything came so easy to me and I could just do the work, even end up with passing grades.
When I reached college I tried to do the same thing and it didn’t work. I had to start studying on a daily basis and it was hard for a student like me to change from not doing any work to studying every night and also on the weekends. I wasn’t used to doing it at the beginning, but I had to make it a habit or I was not going to reach my goal. Since I began attending college it made me more responsible to make the right decisions. In college you have to make decisions that are very hard.
Pressure comes in hard when you get to college; for example you could have a test that you need to study for and there is a party that you want to go to. If you do go to the party then you will fail the test because you did not have any time to study. This is just one example, and there are many more. Another reason that college is a big step is because you are on your own, and you don’t have anybody to tell you what to do. Before, in middle and high, school parents wake you up to go to school, but when you are in ollege you get up early in the morning to go to class by yourself. College is a life-changing experience for me. I never felt stress in my entire life as I feel as now in college . College is a big source of stress for a variety of reasons, and poor planning often leads to crisis situations. The stress of everyday life in college shows itself in different ways: the expectations of making an A in every course, the fear of doing poorly on tests, and getting worried or nervous over the work.
However, it made me realize that you have to go through stress in order to reach you goal because stress is a way of living. College is the most important decision I ever made in my life. It made me realize that without education you won’t be successful. Since I began attending college, it showed me that how life is fast and short you have to be something or else you will feel miserable. The courses in the college are quite stressful for every student, but this is to make us focus and have motive in our work. Attending college also showed me that reality is not like a fairy tale.
