My 1st Year University Experience
When I received the notice that I had pass the university entrance exam, I was overwhelme by excitement, I had no idea how my campus live would be, and I never expected it to be this bad.
The room that I rent is on the third floor of the host’s house. When I first saw the room, I was really disappointed. It is small and has no window, so it’s very hot in the summer. My house is quite big and airy with a beautiful park and a lake at the opposite; therefore, the stuffiness of this room really discourages me. Unfortunaltely, there was no room near the university available so I had to stick to it with despression.
Unlike my friends who live with their close friend or relatives, I share my room with a stranger; she is a second year student from the law faculty of Vietnam national university. She is not too tall and a little chubby with shoulder-length hair and brown eyes. The first day we met, we introduced ourselves to each other and talked about our family, hometown and hobbies.Through the conversation, I found out that not only we had very different appearance but we also had contrast in character. She seems to be a daydreamer while I’m practical. We even don’t have any hobbies in common, while I like Hollywood thriller or comedy movies, she only likes to watch teenagers Taiwan drama, while American punk rock is my indulgence, she is only interested in Vietnamese pop music. We are totally different from each other, so in daily lives, we don’t talk much to each other, not that I’m or she is reseverd, we just don’t have anything to say. But that’s not the problems; the only disaster only comes when the night falls down. Her manner of sleeping is really irritating. She turns herself a lot and she often throw her arms and legs on me and there’s one time when she put her arms on my neck making me choke up, it’s terrible! And one time, I was kiched out of the bed fell on the floor.What ‘s worse? She snores so loudly that I can’t sleep, I’m really tired the next morning

    “Lessons from My Year as a Freshmen” was written by an anthropology professor named Rebekah Nathan who focused on college students actions throughout the school year. She tend to question the reasons why her students were not attending class, doing well in their academics and wanted to figure out their perspective of their new life as independent individuals. Throughout her written observations she wondered if the upcoming students were going to create a change around their new society. For example, she questioned if they were inspired to new ideas for transforming our world in a positive perspective, or were they just going with the flow, becoming adults and joining the workforce in the existing society. Over time, Nathan figured that students…

    A bunch of my family members was at my graduation. They were very excited for me and cheering very loud because I was about to get my high school diploma. When I got to the gym, everybody was getting ready to walk to the football field. I was thinking that I had finally succeeded and reached the day I had been waiting on since ninth grade. I was happy that I finally reached my goal to graduate on the night that ended high school life and started my college life. Everyone was always asking me what I wanted to do in college after graduation, but I was not sure because I like to cook different things. It is always fun to try…

    One day, while I was laying peacefully on my bed, my mother came in with a letter from Florida A&M University. I didn't really want to speculate anything because a few days before I received a letter from another college saying that I wasn't accepted. Nevertheless I was still excited when I opened it and even more so when I read that I had been accepted. So without much hesitation I packed up and headed to Tallahassee. When I arrived my mother and I took care of registration and a plethora of things you have to manage as a new student. After all the hassles of college registration were completed my mother departed for home and I was left by myself to attend college. What a great feeling! Little did I know what I had on store for the next day, my first in college.…

    When I started my first semester at Florida SouthWestern, I found myself under a crushing amount of stress and believed I would be overwhelmed within the first week. I also convinced myself that the Cornerstone Experience was a significant waste of my time. However, throughout the semester my opinions changed as the course introduced me to several important topics that I found myself referring back to throughout the semester: financial literacy, time management and wellness and stress management.…

    The day I left for ASU was in 9th May. I was so excited because I could start my college life. The flight to Arizona was at 4:15 pm. I woke up at 8 am to pick up all my stuff to my luggage and call a car to take me to the airport. After two hours later, my parents, they woke up and prepared the dinner for me. The food were very delicious. The car arrives at 1:00 pm. I arrived at airport at 1:45 pm. The airliner took off on time. In the meantime, I carried the fear of unknown further because everything was unpredictable. How is the ASU? How is the class? How is my dorm room? How is my room? How is class? All the thing about the collage could not stop running through my brain. After 16 hours, I finally arrive at AZ. The first feeling when I…

    In addition to it, on a table against a wall placed cupcakes and candies which make the ground floor smells warm and inviting and blessedly familiar. There is a pool table on one side of the lounge and a table tennis table on the other side beside couches. In the middle are three elevators and from across is a wall of mailboxes. It would take approximately a minute to get to the floor that I live in, the 20th floor. Step out of the elevator after the sound “ding”, the carpeted floor gives it a wonderfully homely character. My room is a double split room, it is allocated evenly on both sides and is furnitured with essentials such as closet, table and mattress on the base. As I jump on the bed, the bed-springs does not creak and the mattress is very soft to lay on. When open up the window, the sound of the city mixed with the sound of wind can be heard clearly along with the sunset and city view outside my window is quite a sight to behold. The throw pillow in bright global textiles and the traditional patterned bedding that I brought all the way from my own country, China, lightened this little room. All these small parts all take parts to build up a home feeling which is one of the main reasons why Lawrinson Hall is my favorite building on campus.…

    After the speeches students from each class lined up in the auditorium. Many of us waited eagerly for our turn to go the main stage to receive our diplomas from the dean. We were more than two hundred but I was waiting patiently. Of course I was very excited. Soon after that, it was my turn. How can I describe that feeling you have been waiting for so long? As I heard my name, I stood up, walked to the stage and the dean handed my diploma after shaking each other's hands. A second later I heard the applause and the unforgettable moment of feeling proud, that yes, I did it! It was an amazing feeling to stay there in front of everyone, especially in front of your family, your loved ones and see the joy in their eyes. In that seconds and on the way back to my seat I recalled a lot of memories from the last five years. All the positive and negative aspects of being a student came to my mind like the hard exams or the fun time with…
