What should every freshman at Riverside City College know before they start?

If i could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior I would tell myself to apply to more colleges. Specifically I would tell myself to apply at colleges across the nation, even if I have no desire to go there. I would tell myself to apply for those obscure scholarships that arent as much as the mainstream ones but I have a better chance at getting. I would tell myself not to fear the transition between high school and college so that my applications will appear stronger. I would tell myself to get into the practice of writing essays so that I wont balk at any scholarship that requires an essay. I would also tell myself to stay away from the UC system as they are going through financial hardships and will be virtually unaffordable. This will save me the hassle of transferring to a community college. But most importantly I would tell myself to apply to the college that I want to go to, to pursue the career that I want to have, and not to be swayed by the words of my parents who have different ideas of what I shoud do.
