Personal Narrative: My Experience At Neosho County Community College

519 Words3 Pages

So far my first semester here at Neosho County Community College has been good. I have experienced lots of things these past six months. And there are lots of things the incoming freshman should know, but the three major things that I experienced were, procrastination, Grades and, dorm problems. I have faced those three problems a lot just in my first semester of college and those are also problems freshman all over the world face. Firstly, Procrastination is a problem I faced early in the year and I should not have. At first it did not affect me as much as I thought it would but now that the semester is almost over I am stressing over my grades. If I would have taken my time and not waited till the last minute to finish lots of my essays …show more content…

It was hard for me to do that for the first two months I would be missing lots of class due to all the soccer games we would travel to and not having lots of spare time for me to do homework since we would practice every day and that would take lots of time out of my day. Also my GPA is something I should have kept up with more I learned that it is better off to start off as a freshman with a high GPA and maintain it than to try to bring up a low GPA. Once I add more classes to my GPA average it will either go up or down in small increments. So it is better if I end first semester with a high GPA. Finally, I had to know when to say NO. I personally did not face that problem a lot because I do not drink alcohol and I honestly do not like to party. But there were points where I was tempted to do something, but I know I could, just because of the fact that I got in trouble with alcohol and my parents were to find out they would kill me. So now that I think about it all the times I would say NO. I am not here to party I am here to receive a better future, a future my parents did not have the chance to take and to play soccer those are the only things I should be focused

    Upon arriving to Miami Dade College, you will never imagine all the resources offered to students to succeed during their scholastic years. I’ve been lucky enough to been advised by some of the best staff at their Interamerican campus. From their advisement office to their profoundly knowledgeable professors. As a current student of ENC1102, we were required to attend one section with a tutor at the writing center. I always thought I had sufficient knowledge of the English language and taking time out of my busy schedule to attend a section with a tutor was absurd.

    The best part of this semester has been meeting new friends and people that aren’t mean and talk about you behind your back. Meeting mature individuals has defiantly made my experience here at Brevard College a positive on but I love how willing to help the professors are because I don’t dread going to class. It may not be my strongest subject but if you go talk to the teachers they are more than will to help out.

Fortunately, I was blessed with supportive parents that have pushed me to do my best in academics and community service. When it was time to apply for college, my parents agreed it would be a waste to let all my hard work go to waste so I applied to nursing school and took out a ridiculous amount of student loans.

    When deciding where I wanted to go for college I started big Colorado, California, New York,Georgia, basically every state was a contender for college. But then in May of my sophomore year of high school I visited New York City, the city that never sleeps drew me in the second I stepped out of my cab into Time square. The amount of people, signs and smells, can be repulsive and overwhelming for many people but to me it made me feel at home. Because of my instant love for the New York I knew college in the city would be a no brainer looking at Parsons and FIT, I always thought those would be my top choices. But then came Marist, this college a short train ride away from the city is no doubt my dream school and has been since I stumbled across

    And already it’s that time of the year again. Break out those notebooks and sharpen your pencils because class is in session. Like many of us, who have been there and done that, my initial reaction was a couple groans and more than a few cries of despair (look, I’m just not ready to fight with Microsoft Word at two am, for a paper that is due in six hours), but, I have come to the conclusion that with each new semester comes new opportunities; new ways to improve myself from last semester. And though it is stressful at times, I can recognize that my education is a gift, especially here at Aquinas. As a junior I feel I have picked up some tricks of the trade to help survive throughout my stay here, and I feel it is my duty to disclose a couple

    I am one of those people who believed whatever happens in movies at college, actually happens in real life. Well that wasn’t the case for me. I remember my high school teachers telling me that professors don’t care about their students nor do they make exceptions, while that is partially correct, it is not as bad, as I thought it was. Also, I was kind of prepared for university by my senior class teachers, who tried their best to make it feel as if we were in college. Before attending UC Davis by few weeks, I thought I would make a lot of friends and have more strict professors, but that’s not how it went down.
