Sierra

The things have gotten out of my college experience is the love for my history and culture which is always being expressed through the way of school spirit. I have always found value in the college experience because It allowed me to be closer to achieving my dreams to become something successful. It is valuable to me because I am not only the first generation in my family to attend college, but also currently the only person in my family in college. I take pride in my college experience because its something that I never could imagine and I cherish evey minute of attending my school. Value in attending college really has no value because you can never put a price on your college experience, you can only cherish moments by holding them in a picture or making them into lasting stories in your memories you share with family and friends.

I attended college in 1995 and received a certificate in Early Childhood Ed. I am in the process of going back for a degree in Psychology because my certificate is out of date. It is valuable for me to attend college again so I can have the education I need to work in the career I want.

From my college experience i have learned that you only get out of it what you put into it. I have also learned not to get so stressed out over things that are out of my controll, just get them done and handle the best way you can. This has been a valuable experience because I have met some realy great people here, I have also learned to work hard in order to get great results.

In every life there is a pinnacle, a moment where a life and a person completely change. Many who enter the campuses of a College or University as a freshman experience this moment. Entering my college, Harford Community, in the Summer of 2010 completely changed my life. At Harford Community College I obtained not only a well-rounded education, but a sense of independence and personal responsibility. In high school teachers constantly remind students to finish their work and grade leniently, but in college professors demand punctuality and perfection on every assignment, whether they remind you of it or not. Harford Community College has given me many wonderful and necessary lessons in life. Because of these lessons Harford Community has been a valuable college to attend. My life is currently at its pinnacle. I am learning new lessons every day, some in the classroom and some in the company of co-workers and friends. Without my valuable experience at Harford Community College I would still be a dependent of my parents and teachers, unable to make the first step towards adulthood and freedom.

Out of my college experience i have learn a lot mostly about myself. I am more responsible and do more things on my own also making my job at work easier and better quality. It also teaches me a lot about other skills I will need in the future such as Accounting, math, and writing papers.

From my short time here at Florida A&M University I have become more of an extrovert. From my college experience I have become more social, and now I am able to interact with people alot better than when I first arrived here. I have also learned the art of social networking and all of the benefits that can come from it.

From living inside a dorm, with over 20 other guys, i've gained a healthy respect for a person's personal space. From just being away from home and living on my own, i've learned to save my money. You never know what kind of emergency might come up and its always good to be prepared for it. From attending Florida A and M University i've been able to become a more open person and meet new people. I was a very private person in high school and this led to me not making as many friends as I could have. Up here in Tallahassee, i've done the complete opposite and a lot of the people i've met, have also been the people that I study with. This has led to me doing better in all of my classes than I would have if i'd just stayed in my room all the time.

From my college experience I have gotten that it's better than what I thought it was before I started. I thought that my professor was going to be this mean and strict person with all these rules you have to follow. But instead my professor is a nice person who is willing to help you when you don't understand something right away. She also is making learning fun while teaching a new way to do problems. It's been valuable for me because, I didn't start college right after high school, I had to take a year off and get things in order before I could start. So now that I have started I am taking in every opportunity and my my college years the best time of my life. While learning what I need to in order to become a physical education teacher I am going to put my best effort and succeed in what I am wanting to do in my life. I'm hoping to make some new friends along the way to make it more interesting.
