So i was reviewing previous blogs and noticed how we have never really talked about our college lives, like we claimed we would.
So here it goes, a little insight on my life as a first year college student.
1. Roommates, as necessary as they are for me, piss me off. I hate how inconsiderate they can be. Im so lucky to have a room to myself, my own little sanctuary where I can escape their constant annoying habits. I hate when I come home at night and I have to enter a loud, smelly, dirty, and dark house. Its very very annoying.
2. I hate not being listened to. As narcissistic as I might sound here, I am by far the most intelligent person in my apartment. When I try to help my friends and they dont listen, I get very annoyed. Its not like Im trying to be their dad or anything, but when I have a friend who wastes hundreds of dollars a month at the casino, and refuses to stop going, it bothers me.
3. I miss high school. In high school (again not trying to sound like an arrogant person here) I was pretty cool. Im not saying I miss popularity, but I do miss knowing everyone and knowing everything that was going on. I really just miss my other friends I guess. I had a lot of fun going to school everyday and just hanging out.
4. I really do miss Shelby a lot. She was one of the few people that I could have an intelligent conversation with. She is a very smart person and thats what i miss, real conversation.
5. Dont go to a junior college. If you enjoy high school and you enjoy that student atmosphere, than do not go to a JC. JC's are great in a financial way. They are cheap and still give you a good education. But they lack in college atmosphere. The classes are filled with older people and it can be hard to meet people your age. Four year universities are loaded with kids your age that arent juggling college, multiple jobs, kids, mortgage bills, car payments, and outstanding credit card debt (well most of them anyway). The students at these places of learning are there to learn. They arent just enrolled in school to pick up their weekly grant check. Go to a four year school. Thats the best advice I can give.
