College Week 1 First Imperissons

Anxious.... is the best way to describe how I feel in my first week of college. There are so many new people that it can be somewhat overwhelming. I find myself lost amongst the crowd, eagerly waiting to find out what comes next. Questions upon questions have filled my head: Will I fit in? What clubs should I join? What's the best way to study? Many of these questions are yet to be answered, yet I am confident that I'll find my niche.

This first week is a big transition for me. The biggest difference I've found so far is the environment. Back at home the environment never really changed. In college the environment changes day to day. Some days are sleepy days while others are filled with life and energy.  Those who surround you affect and influence you're actions. There is no one here to tell you when to do this and when to do that. You make you're own choices, your own decisions. Some will affect you, others will affect those around you. This is a new chapter in all of our lives and it won't be easy. We've made it  into college and that in itself is an achievement. As we approach our first day of classes we come to a cross road. In front of this cross road there is a sign pointing in all different directions. Starting tomorrow we will begin walking down one of those paths but have no fear. For a misguided person can always walk back to the start and think things over. He/she must think rationally; What path will work for me? Am I sure that this is the right decision? If I  go down this path will I be able to return? No one has the answers to these questions accept you're self. So get up, go on and choose your journey.
