My first year in DU..Posted on : 04/09/2009 12:24:58 Being in DU was neither preplanned nor is presumption. But after coming here it feels like if not DU than what else??? College is a lot different than high school. You may decide to commute from your home to a local campus. Also being in a hostel it becomes extension of your life. You become citizen of this campus... Your freshman experience will definitely make an impression on you. Without doubt, though, the most dramatic freshman year is for those living away from home. What can you expect as you head off into the wonderful world of higher education? The first thing you'll notice is the workload. It will be heavier and more intense than you ever experienced before. Volume of reading, the short deadlines, hangs outs, celebrations and what not…but at the end of the day you have done them all… no matter what and no matter how…!!! You'll be away from the comforts and friendships your home provided for you over the previous years. On some of those long, seemingly endless nights of studying and writing, it will be only natural for you to long for the good old days. Hang in there. These down periods will pass. Whatever you do, don't make major decisions about your major, your courses, or even your roommate during one of these blue periods. Things always look better in the morning… You'll be making a lot of new friends. Believe it or not, your college friendships will be among the most satisfying and long-term of your life. It's always exciting to discover how wonderfully diverse college relationships can be. Stay up until dawn talking about your ideals and ambitions with your dorm's regular bull session buddies. Sleep in until the afternoon on a light class day.. Going to college is as much about finding out who you really are as it is about getting that degree… I just did that!!!
