When we got this assignment I immediately thought about that David Bowie song, “Changes”. God, this has been a nice change.
It was my first day at The University and I was already comparing it with High school. Let’s say that those weren’t my best years... but I’m not going to lie, school is much more easier than University.
Back in those days, I was able to do what ever I wanted in my free time, now my schedule is pretty much like this: Go to the university, get in the class, an hour later the class is over, then I go to the library, study, read, go to class again, and the same thing every day. Maybe this is going to sound strange, but I kind of like it. Really. I love being active all day, and definitely I did not have that on high school.
Now, I even act in a more “socially way”. I’m very shy and insecure, so you can imagine that I’m not the best at making friends. But here, people are more interesting and friendlier. I don’t have that urgent of being alone like in my high school days, where I didn’t feel like the most sociable classmate. At least, now I have a few good friends that really make me want to be nicer with them.
Finally, I think the most important thing about being in the university is that I’m doing what I really like, and studying something that interests me. That is the best part of all this, certainly I’m enjoying a lot more the fact that I have to study (Almost) 24/7 (not really, that would be too much, isn’t it?)
