This semester has been different to what I thought it would be. Going into classes I was nervous about what to expect, but my high school classes prepared me well for college and I was more prepared for the topics covered than I thought. Meeting new people has been refreshing, but harder than I thought it would be. I had to join clubs and am planning to rush next semester to involve myself even more and meet more people. It has been a good start to college, but more challenging. College is 24/7 and I had to learn to make time for myself to balance both my mental health. I learned the importance of balancing physical and mental health and know when to stop and take a break. I am excited for what next semester has in store.
