I must say that the whole college experience has been more enjoyable than I thought it would be. I have met alot of new people, taken some good classes and over all I have gotten alot out of school. I know had I been mature enough back 16 years I could have gone to school then and things would probably be a little different now.
Well after all the stressing I did before actually going back I now know it was for no reason. I have struggled with some of the work. Relearning all the things that I had originally learned 16 years ago but I did the weekly work and took all the test and I survived. To others this may not mean a thing, but to me it was a great accomplishment. Considering when I was in school I really disliked it. I didn't want to be there I couldn't wait to graduate and start my life and that is what I did.
Even after all the enjoyment I got out of the experience I am glad to know that I only have 1 week left and then I get to enjoy a 3 week vacation. This will be a time to rest my brain and relax before the next semester of classes start. I will get to spend some weekdays with my family and catch up on together time with them. I know the 3 weeks will go by fast especially with the holidays getting close. Regardless of what I do over this break I will remember the first semester that has gotten me motivated to keep going and that is what I intend to do. I know my classes are going to get harder as I keep going but I feel that being older and more mature now will help me get through it all.
Yes i agree the whole college experience is alot to take in. I too wish I would have taken school more serious because I wouldn't have to be doing it now. But I guess we wake up and see the light at all different ages and times. This is my third semester and I am still going strong and so will you. Good luck in what ever you become.
