Facebook...

I really like it, I get to chat with my highschool buddies and see how they're doing...but sometimes it gets really annoying and I start yelling at myself why i have one.
Wait... what am i doing on the computer in the first place... i got to go and study.
AAAH! College!!

College Homework

College may be better than high school in many ways, but one thing that i find extremely annoying is the amount of homework that needs to be done. Maybe it's because I have four classes in one day, but for some reason i always have things to do when i get home (homework-wise). It's only the first week of my first semester, so I can't wait for the rest of the years as a college student.
I'm sure I'll be fine, but at the same time I was expecting more free time to do things other than college related things (aka homework and/or projects).

The Four Freedoms Posters

The display was actually extremely informative and interesting. I thought that it was awesome how each poster can be interpreted in very different ways.
In my opinion, all the freedoms are related in some sort of twisted way. For FDR's speech to be written about, drawn out, and analyzed shows its importance.

Control

What u say and wear, how u talk and show urself to other people, who u talk to and become friends w/, where u go and for what reasons. These things a person, YOU, can control.
Other things, on the other hand, cannot be controlled by u, no matter how much u want it to.
The way people react to different things, whether u'll be going to college w/ ur best friend, if u'll be moving to a different city, state, or country b/c of ur parents' job, whether or not u'll be living to see tomorrow. Things like these happen out of the blue. Sometimes u'll get a warning ahead of time and sometimes u wont.
It may seem sad/depressing to think of these things, but i learned from experience that it's inevitable and that it'll be a slap in the face if ur not ready.

First Day at Work :)

Today I started working, as in I have a real job with salary and stuff. It was pretty exciting to know that I was actually doing something useful and in the end I'll get $$ back. I'm working in my dad's clinic. It does get annoying at some point during the day and my eyes start to hurt, but it's OK, since as mentioned twice before I'm getting something out of it. YAY!!!

what i expected and what i got...

I've always thought that college was for 'big people'. I imagined a classroom full of ppl who have straight faces (some even frowns) trying to understand what the teacher is saying . I realized that its the same as high school, just a lot tougher.
I've always wanted to get out of high school, and i did, but now im in college and studying again. Only this time w/ a bunch of ppl i didnt even know existed...i kind of like it. its exciting and u never know what to expect.
I've always been to a private school, and i can definitely tell u that this is VERY different.
