Highschool to College


Change forces us to grow; it’s what keeps us developing as people. Change is often very difficult to deal with, even if the changes in life are for the better.  Some people hate change because it can represent the end of some things, which can trigger all types of emotions.  On the other hand you have those who accept change very well. They may believe it could be a new start and new potential to grab a hold to, like me.  Whether it’s a good or bad change, change always presents huge adjustments in our lives.
After graduating high school, going away to college is a big change.  Your relationships with people become harder to keep and friends start to disappear.  In high school everything was a breeze compared to college.  In high school you would always be on a timely schedule and would actually have to show up to class.  Once out of high school everything you did was up to you, like making sure you would wake up and get to class on time.  In high school you could get one on one time with the teacher because it would only be 25 to 30 students in a class, but in college there could be anywhere from 50 to 200 students.
The change from high school to college is hard, but not impossible.  It’s apart of growing up and started a successful life of your own.

My first big change

Everyone goes through a change big or small. About two years ago I went through what I thought was the biggest change of my life.  I moved to Virginia in the middle of my sophmore year of high school.  I knew a time like that would come sooner or later because I was an army brat.  I wasn't a oridinary army brat though, because many kids moved every three years, but  stayed in one place all my life.  Once my parents told me we were moving, so many emotions went shooting through my head.  I was so upset at the fact that I had to leave all my friends I knew since elementary and a boy I was becoming very close with.  At the age of fifteen those things seem to be all that really mattered to me, so i couldn't believe i was going to have to start all over.
