College Student

The first day of anything new is always nerve racking especially the first day of class at Rock Valley College. Most freshmen are right out of high school and are embarking on a new journey. Pulling into the parking lot I noticed millions of cars and people walking around campus. I notice upperclassmen reacquainting themselves with peers they saw semesters before. I see others finding old friends thankful for someone to talk to so to not look stupid standing alone. I see adults who decided to return to school after many years out of high school hoping to obtain their degree. There are people smoking cigarettes, people talking on cell phones, people eating, and people just visiting with others.

There seem to be many differences and similarities between high school and college that I’ve noticed. Classes seem to be conducted the same way, except class is not required and food and drink is allowed. Walking outside to smoke a cigarette between classes is never something you will see a high school student do. I was shocked when I saw others walking in and out of class at their own will, and when I saw others eating and drinking during class and the teacher not saying a word about it.

The clerk asked for the credit card that was used to buy the books with. I explained that I didn’t know they were bought with a credit card that my mother had bought them. She said that it was policy that she would only be able to exchange them and credit the credit card she would not be able to refund it in cash. I said that I understood and that I would come back with the credit card.

We all hurry into the room and find a desk. Of course this room is silent also. It was the same situation in my first class. Finally 15 minutes late our teacher walks into excusing himself because he had the wrong room. He breaks the silence and has us do an exercise not only for him to get to know us but us to get to know each other. In the long wrong it was a fantastic idea. After another hour my school day is over. I climb into my car and drive 45 minutes. home relieved that I made it through my first day. At home I finish homework and have some alone time until the next day when I have to head back to school for two more classes.

Two hours past and it was time for class. I walked in the room and noticed that my class was primarily adults. This was my math class my least favorite. This class seemed to be the opposi
