Richland College Top Questions

Hi, Chelsea it's me. This is what you are going to be next year if you don't stop being scared. College isn't a bad thing. I know your afraid of failing and, afraid you won't make friends. I know you want to fly away to Neverland and never grow up but you have to. Stop being so afraid that you do nothing. Pick a college and apply. Sure, you may not have the money but there are scholarships that will help. Start at a four year university please. You know what you want you want to major in. Live on campus try to make friends. Yes, some people may not like you but it's okay because like high school once you graduate you may never see them again. Everything will work out trust me because I'm living the life and I wish you would have challenged yourself and faced your fears because your missing out. Your missing out on friends, freedom, and learning experiences.

Laura, you may think you're ready to leave home and embark on a new journey, but you're not. You get caught up in the social scene too easily, and the high expectations you set for college will only bring you discontent. Take a year to settle into life outside of high school. Be open minded about the people around you and the classes you take. Stay away from alcohol- it's not good for you. When you do not get into The University of Texas, it is not the end of the world, even though you think you will never be happy anywhere else. Make sure to thank Momma and Daddy, because they would do anything they possibly can for you. Get excited because you are going to love geology, and it's going to be what drives you to succeed. Most importantly, do not ever settle for anything that does not make you happy, because you deserve to be as happy as possible. Search for happiness and fullfillment in everything you do.
