Being Ready and Prepared

Have you ever thought about what course/s to take when you enter college? Or do you have any chosen university where you like to go to? Are you ready to face a new chapter in your school life? Well, those are the common questions asked when someone enters his/her senior year in high school. One always gets confused, worried or nervous when s/he hears about college. According to some college students, and even those who have graduated already, college life is hard. On the other hand, some say that it is easier than high school life. Hmmm, that makes me feel confused.

One of my classmates, who happened to be my friend too, have lent me her book, "A Girl's Guide to College". Unfortunately, I forgot the name of the author, which is so sad. Anyway. It talks about college life, of course, from the freshman years to the senior years. It has everything and it really gives ideas on how to make your college life meaningful. According to it, one should always be prepared and learn how balance his/her time which is really important. College life means more work. It also means responsibility, because one is becoming more independent and less dependent to his/her parents though they still support him/her. Though it means more work, it doesn't mean that one will sleep at the wee hours of the morning or will not sleep at all. What the author is trying to point out here is that one can still enjoy it even if there are more work and more assigned task. Making college life easier depends on the person, on how s/he handle the situation. Like what I said, learn how to balance time. If one learns how to do it, things will flow out smoothly.

So, there. I really don't know the reason why I have thought about this topic, but I think, it will help to whoever reads this. I think that this will somehow help people, particulary senior high school students like me. I will also try to share more about what I have read on the book but not now..hahaha. Okay, I will wrap this up with my favorite slogan last summer, "Be happy like Jollibee!". Thank you for reading. God bless and take care! =)
