Quote: I made the transition from high school pretty smoothly. The real difference for me is that in college no one reminds you of your responsibilities; you need to remember things and stay on top of your coursework on your own. I have a lot of free time that I need to organize so that I can get everything finished that I need to.
I'm really looking forward to my future here at St. Lawrence. I would like start developing my own film up here, maybe even eventually have a showing of the pictures I've taken.
I tried out for a part in a play last semester, but unfortunately, I didn't make it. I'm definitely planning on trying out again though; I enjoy acting and want to get on stage a few times before I graduate.
I went whitewater rafting for my pre-orientation trip, and it helped me to meet other first-year students with similar interests in the outdoors. The communal aspect of college life really agrees with me I think, it's been great so far, I've found many opportunities to enjoy myself, and between trying out for plays, photography, and applying to become an outdoor guide, I have a lot to look forward to.
