As a graduating senior of the CLASS OF 2005! ((stand up!)) I can say that I have learned a LOT during my undergrad tenure. I had a LOT of great experiences and the people I have met will be sorely missed. I get teary-eyed just thinking about it! But for all the good times there were bad ones. There's only a couple of things I would've done differently but they weren't any life-altering events, or at least I didn't ALLOW them to be. The only advice I can give to all you incoming frosh is to make the best of everything<---even the bad times! If you do not get the best out of your institution then it's YOUR FAULT; if you do not have fun in college then it's YOUR FAULT. If you make the best out of your institution then it's YOUR FAULT. If you have fun during college then it's YOUR FAULT :wink: Yall get my drift. Also follow your heart. All my professors have been trying to talk me into going to law school. When I told them I wanted to be a high school couselor to encourage more kids to go to college, they said I was wasting talent. Oh well, I am following my heart. Youngins: DO NOT let anyone diverge you from the path you have set to achieve your goals. This includes boyfriends, girlfriends, best friends, professors, parents<---actually ALL FAMILY members, etc. All that glitters aint gold. We've heard it before; well take heed! When in doubt, get out! This means schools, relationships, etc. These last three years have been some of the best of my life and I plan to make more good memories for grad school next year. Sorry I wrote yall an essay but I hope ya get the point :wink:

What did u learn from your first year of college that you will change in your second?

I learned that as much as i LOVE being in college and the fact that I attend a black college makes it 10x better, that regardless of how much fun I am having...EDUCATION COMES FIRST. Yeah everybody knows that, hell I knew it too...but I didnt act like it my first semester. WHen you got so much free time and nobody to answer too, you would be surprised how easily you can allow your social life to take priority over the academics without realizing. I did my work and whatnot, turned my assignements in on time, but I wasnt working too my full potential, and I wasnt studying enough. And it showed in my GPA. Thats why I am working extra hard to get it to where I want and need it to be. By the second time spring semester rolled around, I had improved much more...but Im still having to work extra hard cause Im still pullin for that 3.5 gpa that I havent gotten to yet. On top of that, I have learned from my freshmen year that n*ggas aint sh*t. Dont get me wrong, I have met some and had relations with some cool **** dudes, but alotta guys only look at you as the FRESHMEAT, so you dont wanna fall into that trap of being used by guys who seem sincere as hell, but only wants the p*ssy.

What positivity has come out of your life so far because of your college experiance?

Alot of positive things have come out of my life since attending FAMU. I have met some great friends, that I know I will be friends with until forever..lol...I have become much more indepedent going to school all the way down south by myself not having any family or friends down there. I had to meet and adjust to a new culture which was DEFINITELY A CULTURE SHOCK and I enjoyed ever minute of it. And then of course enjoying the whole " black college experience. " There are times when I say I hate FAMU for stupid reasons( like how long the financial aid line is ), but there is honestly no where else I would want to be. I just know my college experience wouldnt be as great as it is if I were somewhere else.

hmmm...learned a lot more about journalism...the behind-the-scenes...the ins-&-outs...not too many people know about...that I wouldn't have ever known otherwise....and of course, my lessons and knowledge about people in general...have increased (i do know there's so much more yet to learn, tho)...i've met so many interesting individuals...& don't regret having met any of 'em (friends, professors, enemies, strangers, & all!)...because I know all of 'em have played vital roles in what I need to know about both the good and bad in life...who has my back...who doesn't...and just the outcome of who I am to become...generally-speaking...everyone i've ever met is relevant...& came into my life for a reason...

the fact that procrastination works for me so much as it does...really works against me...because I do know that those days of truth are coming...they may hit in grad school...may hit by the time i get into my career...but they're gonna hit, i can just FEEL it...& that is a BIG problem 'cause i ain't gonna be ready 4 it....like i said be4, it'z soooooooooo haaaaaarrrrrrrd to quiiiiiiiiiiitttt :cry: :cry: :cry: lol
