I'm about to enter my second year at my city's "college". It used to be a community college up until two or three years ago, but let me just say this, it should've stayed with the community part of it. There is no difference.
Looking back, I had so many expectations. I expected to make great friends, join a club, be inspired my teachers, work hard, be motivated. Yes, looking back i now realize I was short of delusional. I've taken 9 classes and only claim that two teachers have actually taught me something. I haven't made any great friends, actually, on the contrary, I've lost several groups of friends, but that obviously comes with the graduated of high school. I didn't do so well on my first 2 semesters. Its a lame excuse and most likely a scapegoat, but i blame my ex. I'll leave it at that. I switched campuses and have taken two classes here. I actually am seeing improvement. It could also be that i have a different train of thought. School isnt to make friends. I'm here to learn and the friends i do have are outside of the school.
On a brighter side, I have become closer to a few people who i once considered acquaintances.
I cannot wait until Fall of next year. that's my graduation date. and even now I think that i may be putting too much hope into the future, but what else do i have to look for? Am I supposed to dread my graduation and me moving on to an actual university? Let me think about that.
