College is neverending... well it seems that way anyways!

College is just mind blowing. But it is not mind blowing in a good way. There is so much stuff that has to be done. Essays, papers, tests, quizes, projects, presentations, etc. Pulling all-nighters is something that I had never done before entering college. Always busy. Working two jobs and still not being able to pay off the bill. Man, i'm going mad! It's so hard! But, honestly, it is the best thing that I have ever done in my life! It's so expensive but so worth it! Ok, so I have learned some things this first year of college. I want to give all of you college aspiring high school students a few tips. But, before I do that I want to just say... you make your true friends in college. Wheather it is with your room mate or your professor. Long lasting friendships come from college. Of course they come from high school too. I'm not saying that they don't. Cherish the friendships made in college! I had very few friends before I came to college. Ok, now on to the tips.
1. Don't go to a private college (you will save about 10,000$ a year)
2. Go to an in-state school (this will save you a whole bunch of money)
3. Get as many scholarships and loans as you possibly can
4. I know this sucks but, it will be cheaper if you have a room mate!

These are just some tips for saving money!
