Freshman Seminar 2011: CFA

Who do I think I am? That’s a tough question. I know for certain that I am a daughter, a sister, a niece, a grand-daughter, a cousin, a god-mother, a friend, and a student among other things. In many ways I am still trying to define myself. I am not entirely sure of what I want to do with my life or where I am headed, but I guess that will come in time.

Being in college is definitely something that I am adjusting to. The workload is entirely different, and coming from a school where I rarely had to open a book, it has been a struggle to develop good study patterns. My biggest concern is just maintaining a somewhat decent GPA. That, along with dealing with all the work that has to be done and making sure I plan out my time and stay focused and organized.

As of right now I am not enrolled in any clubs. My first semester I didn’t think that I would be able to manage getting acclimated with the school and being a part of different organizations. However, I do believe that getting involved is something that will make my college experience different from high school.

I believe that my first year of college will definitely give me a better perspective on my future. I’m hoping that by the end of my first year I will have a better idea of what I want to do and if not maybe I’ll know for sure something that I have no desire doing. By the end of this year I see myself more grown up, more focused,more engaged in my studies and  more involved in clubs and organizations. Hopefully by the end of this year I’ll be able to better define myself.
