The college life is exactly what you see on television. There are parties, games, and more. Once you go to college, stay to yourself. Do not get involved with a lot of people because that is how you get caught up in drama. Focus only on your education. If your education is going to be hindered, do not attend whatever you had planned for the day or night. Your professors are there to help you so use that to your advantage. If you are having any trouble, they will help you. Show plenty of school spirit because this could help you sooner or later. Do not try to fit in. Stick to your morals that you learned before you left to go off to school. Keep in contact with your teachers and staff from high school. You will eventually still need them for recommendations.

I would tell myself that college may seem easy, but its not. Also to stay focused and dont mess around and study as much as you can. You can still have fun and a life but be wise with your time. Be careful of who you hang out with for that can definately affect your studious tasks and dorm life.

Do not go to Allen University. Choose a university that does offer a Nationallly Accredited Nursing Program. Start looking at ways to pay for a different school. Do not choose to take the easy route.

My goal now on is to study for my VCAT test which is an exam I would need to take in order to go to medical school for veterinary medicine. Maintain a GPA of a 3.0 and pass the physical test for a three years scholarship for ROTC. The quote that I will always go by is “ you never know who is watching you.” I go by that quote because it true that why I always talk in manner way that can get me far through life. When I graduate from medical school I want to accomplish my career, make a wonderful family of mines, and want people to remember me as a wonderful person when I leave this earth. That’s why I planned my career before I made it to Allen. I wanted to be somebody that people wouldn’t mind me to be. I want my dream to start out hard an end out smoothly. Have a great smile on mother face to show if she need anything ,I wouldn’t mind helping her like she didn’t mind helping me a lone my way through school. I will always keep that in mind thought school.

My college experience has been really good so far. I love going to school, and everyday i think to myself "this is where i need to be in order to achieve my goal." College is the best experience, i have had so far. It has really put a view in my eyes, that this is the place that'll take me to my future. I am attending school to be a mortician and i am really looking forward to continue on my college degree to accomplish it. I have worked at a funeral home in my home town, and know that is what i want to do. To me it is really valuable for me to attend. No one in my family have went to college, and I want to see myself being the first one to go. I want to break the chain, and go to school so that my children in the future can have the oppurtunity as well. I hope that college can make my life style better in the future, and can help me put out a example to my kids, that anyone can set a goal and accomplish it.

My college experience has been phenomenal in good and bad ways. I have had the chance to broaden my horizons culturally, spiritually, and emotionally. I have had personal experiences that have allowed me to really concentrate on a major in the social service field. I have realized that I am here on this earth for a purpose. That purpose is to be of service to those in need. I know personally what it is like to be in the system and a part of the system. I just want to help make situations brighter for those who may not have a chance otherwise.

College has gotten me to really understand why education is so important, I now know that education is money is the future, the more education more money, less education less money. College has not been a waste of time or money, it's worth everyone's time and money. It has been valuable to attend college because it represents the person I am or want to become. College students are said to be more educated, responsable, respectful, reliable, and more mature. College is all about growing up , becoming a better person, understanding life and becoming adults.
