New school, new friends equal new beginnings. Over the past four years in high school I made lasting memories and loyal friends. Even though my high school friends and I will stay in touch, it’s a start of a new era for us as we go in our own directions to find our way in life. Starting college seems like starting over again, where you are the new kid in school except, this time the school has fifteen thousand students. But if you take a step back you realize everyone is here in the same situation where everyone else is waiting for the person to break the ice instead of having that awkward silence. You don’t know if you can trust the people you meet and sometimes you just want to stay in your comfort zone. It’s time for us to take that step and break out of comfort zone and try something new. The friends we make and the people we come into contact with every day will be the ones have a lasting impact shaping our lives.
