In the past three months of college, it felt like I was attending advanced High School. The classes are about one and a half times longer, and there are less days in the semester. We learn about the same amount of materials in college, and we take a lot of notes. But a lot of it is up to you to go home read the chapters, and full up those holes between the lessons. If you didn’t read the textbook closely, then you would be very confused the next day. A lot of the times, we find ourselves not understanding the material and have to ask classmates for help, which is why I chose this meme.

In the past three months, there were times when I didn’t understand a topic, and I needed assistance. The most common social media we use is Facebook. I remember one time when I had to ask a classmate about the third page of the reading, to clarify something. The classmate didn’t respond, so instead of going back into the textbook, I got distracted with the videos, pictures, and posts that were on my newsfeed. After 30 minutes, when the classmate responds with the answer to my question, I finally remember that I need to finish this chapter. To me, college is just like a typical High School day, but with more breaks, and maybe more procrastination.
