the freshman experience

             SCSU is a small university, which i think is a good way to start your first year in college. I also like how all of my classes are in the same building. I remember when we were at orientation and our OA's were telling us about how we only have 10 minutes sometimes to go from class to class, so as it was getting closer to the start of school, i was getting nervous that i wouldn't make my class on time. But it really wasn't bad at all. Also i wasn't sure where anything was because at orientation, it was the first week and the temperatures outside were at an all time high, i think 110 maybe, so we stayed inside like the whole time so we couldn't really see much of the campus. 
              Some major goals i have for my freshman year are to meet tons of new people, be open to trying new things, and also to stay on top of all my homework seeing as though its a lot more than high school! I also expect my classes to be much more complicated and more difficult than last year. The teachers aren't as close to the students as last year and also some teachers might not even know your name, which is a complete change from high school when every teacher knew your name and most classes had 20-30 people, unlike now when there could be over 100 people in a class! 
               But now that the first couple days have come to an end now i have realized that college isn't exactly what i had expected. Some things are the same, such as the classes being hard, but the homework being harder and longer. But i also thought that college was going to be so hard to find my way around, and the people wouldn't be as nice as they are, and i didn't think i would like college, but so far i'm wrong about those things. Everything is going very well so far and i really hope it stays this way.
