My first week of college was a great experience. There were some bumps throughout the journey but overall I am enjoying the classes, especially since it is benefiting my career as a nurse. The first three days were rough. When I was alone in my room with nothing to do, my eyes would just start watering and I just could not hold back the tears. Transitioning from high school to college was obviously not an easy process for me. I miss the friendly relationship I had with my English teacher and the similar faces I would see everyday in the hallways, even if I did not know them. It is difficult for me to open up to someone new and I think this flaw has stopped me from blossoming in college. One good thing about going to Fairleigh Dickinson is that I have some friends from high school going to the same university. Some of them have also experienced some troubles fitting into college so it is nice knowing someone who has similar feelings about college as me. It is a comfortable feeling that I can talk to someone freely and burst out my feelings and worries. But I know that as time goes by I will be much more content and happy about school. One thing I love the most about college are my classes. I especially like my anatomy class because I find it so interesting learning about the human body and the way it works to keep us alive. College is an exciting experience because I will
be able to finally study what I like since it will be helping my career. Hopefully, as I mature into a better and wiser person, I will be able to call this place my second home.

Lisette:
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your ideas. College can be difficult. I remember my first day. I didn't want my parents to leave and when they did, I felt alone.
FDU offers great resources and social outings and clubs for their students. If you like, I can show you some of them.
It's great having you in class. I look forward to working with you throughout the semester.
Warmest regards,
--Prof. Young
