College is weird. Its funny how high school isn’t so different than what we are doing now, except mainly for the freedom aspect. Five months ago we had to ask to go to the bathroom and were given detention if we acted out, for some of us if we even took our phones out. Now, we have to choose classes that will decide our entire futures and can have our laptops with us whenever we want, an teachers, or “professors”, couldn’t care less if were using them to help or to watch The Walking Dead. I guess people think we change in five months rather than in four years, you know because that makes sense.

To me, the weirdest aspect would have to be the people around me. I come from a private catholic school that holds 90% white kids that call each other slang names, and the the other 10% being black kids that act whiter than them. Now I see kids around me with turbans and burqas and yamahas and its just so new to me. I often wonder if i’m the only one, being a lot of kids may have come from diverse public or private schools, but its not like its made me racist or prejudice. I don’t expect to learn different languages talking to the new types of people I see around me, but damn drawing a blank on what to say to new kids I meet happens more often than i’d like it to.
