The New Me

College has change me a lot. Before college, I'm not used to how to just relax a little bit. I tend to be a little bit controlling and I freak out when things doesnt go as planned. But college help me figure out how to balance things out and how to take things as it come. This happened because I had planned out what I was going to do for my communication project but my group changed the plan at the last minute but I couldnt do anything about except go with it. At that moment, I was frustrated that we didnt get the things we should have gotten done but I'm glad it did because I would probably be stressing out right about now with everything going on all at once with so little time... Definitely a positive change :)

One thing for sure that college has change me is to be more outgoing and willing to try new things. Before, I would stay in my comfort zone and wouldn't try anything I know I will fail at or terrible at. I wouldn't join any club or organization if I didn't know anyone in it. But now, I push myself to do things outside of my comfort zone. I join organization that sparks my interest and it doesn't matter if there are people I know or not. I feel like I need to push myself a little more if I want to enjoy the college experience. I didnt want to just let college past by. It's a nice change :) 

I think the most change that happened since college started would be my writing skill. Since English is my second language, writing and grammar are not my best forte. I hated writing papers so much since high school, but since college, I don't mind writing papers as much because we have to do it all the time. Writing comes much easier for me. Most positive change!

Mis amigos :)

When I first enrolled into BW, I didn't know anyone. But as the semester begin, I saw 2 of my friends from my high school around campus. My boyfriend is also a student at BW. I met a bunch of my friends through the commuter lounge. Commuters would go there to hang out and do homework. I also met one of my good friend now from class. 
My set of friends stay consistent throughout the semester, since I haven't join a lot of organizations yet. Plus, I don't mind having a small group of close friends. For me, I think it has been easier to to make friends because I tend to just go with it. I usually am not the outgoing type of person, so I thought it was easy to get to know people. I'm still content with just having a small group of friends.
