I remember it so vividly: the first day of college, a fresh start, new school, new teachers, new EVERYTHING! Upon walking into English 101 for the first time, I felt anxious, not knowing what to expect from the class, from the professor. I remember I had doubts: doubts about the work, doubts about my expectations as well as the expectations of others. Luckily, those doubts have been erased from my mind. I recall thinking, "Maybe I should drop this class. I think it's too demanding for me." But I knew I wouldn't go that far. My mother had already paid for my books, my tuition. Not to mention this course was MANDATORY for my transference to Shippensburg in 2 years. So I decided, "Let's see what the next few weeks bring." Joy. Complete bliss. It only got better as I saw the 102% listed as my score for my summary and response paper for "The Man Who Sold the War". I was happy. I felt as though I could do anything. Why shouldn't I be able to? I only go to school three times a week and I can sleep in until 12:00PM if I really want to. My feelings are actually quite indescribable now. Just really bright, happy feelings are all that fill me. Feelings of a job well done, of a hard day's work. I’m looking forward to the assignments ahead so that I may further challenge myself to write even better papers. Papers that I never in a million years would have thought would have come from my mind.
