Friends are another thing. I've been friends with Kevin and Anuj since freshman year. They've always did better than me but that pushed me to always try especially Anuj. He was in atleast two or three classes with me every year. We'd talk about college and joke around with Middlesex and use it as a joke like that's where you'll end up.All my friends consider it a fall off if you end up going there. But now I'm going there so if they don't want to be friends or think differently of me that's fine because you'll learn that you have to start focusing on yourself.
Every decision you make starts to impact your life. Now your grown enough to know theright from wrong. A teacher was discussing how her friend tried so hard in school but never got it. Went to Middlesex two years transfered to UML and now has a better job than her. She went to university and is still paying student loans while being a sub. Her friend has less to worry about. Two years come by so fast that when it's done you realize that you've saved money in the long run. If you get a scholarship for a full ride or enough that your not paying that much good for you. The only loss in my mind is not having a freshamn year on campus. Unless I transfer within the first semester, it won't happen. Being young your just so simple minded, but nowI'm getting to see the big picture.
