I imagined college as going out every night. Finally being able to move out. For some reason when I imagined all this I must have forgot to think about how I was going to finance this dream. So when I moved out and realized what it really meant to be in college I was in for a shock. Paying your own bills, working full-time, and going to school full-time isn't easy, but that's what college is about I believe. Outside of class, I am learning life-long lessons to take with me forever. I have learned how to live off barely anything. I most importantly have become more driven to accomplish my dreams. The overall experience of college has refocused me, that college isn't going to be the time of my life... What I do with my life after college will be.
