What I hope to accomplish by going to college is to get a new perspective on things. I think college is a good place to find out who you are as a person and your own independent thoughts on things. The person I am going to college for is myself. Of course I want to make my parents proud and what not but I think that college is something you have to do for yourself because you want to make yourself better.
What characteristics matter the most when choosing a college is finding one that really fits you and whatever you plan on pursuing in life. I will probably seek my mom for some input because I would like to think that she knows me very well and be very helpful in setting me in the right direction. Although it will have to be that really makes the decision. The goals that I have set for myself are to help myself help others. So I think college will definitely help me do this.
That is a very good goal for you to have, I'm sure you will accomplish it.
ReplyDeleteI think it's important to get new perspectives on things in life. Also, I agree that college is a good place to find out who you are. I think you will go far if you keep the things you talked about in mind! :)
ReplyDeleteI think that's great that how you view college as a way to understand yourself. I never really thought of it like that but now that I do I totally agree.
ReplyDeleteI agree that college does bring you to a point where you start to figure out who and what you want to do. I know you are SO smart and that you can do anything you want to do if you just set your mind to do it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, its good to please your parents because they are your parent but it really matters for you more because you are the one who is going to have to make the choices in college.
