Tallahassee Community College Top Questions

Time marches on! Don't give up on your dreams and your aspirations, where there is a will , you WILL find the way! I know you think you are not very smart and school takes a lot of your time but the payoff will be worth it. All the things you enjoy most you dedicate some time to such as sewing, or cooking, or getting to know your friends. Dedicate time to school as well. Life is about learning and whether in school or not in school, you will be learning. With school your learning will be applied to a degree. As you learn more, classes become easier and the big picture seems to come together. If you think full time is just too much, don't seel yourself short, commit to a class or two you enjoy and then sandwich in one you don't enjoy. Your career opportunities for your future will depend on the educational follow through -- don't let anything hold you back! You are worth it! Your children are going to be so proud of you and your success. Step up to the plate and hit your home run!

If I could go back in time and talk to myself during my senior year, I would stress the importance of taking care of scholarship and financial aid information. With that being said, I would also tell myself to remember that the only thing that will get me to where I want to be will be my education, and I can't let anyone or anything become an obstacle or hinder me from furthering my education. I would tell myself to prove myself right, that I am intelligent and I do have what it takes. I would tell myself to push through the hard times. Last, but not least, I would tell myself to plan for the worst, hope for the best, and focus on the here and now.

I would tell myself to work harder in regards to my English class and a few other classes that I did not do so well in. If I had worked harder than I could either be attending Florida State or I could be in higher classes at my school now. I would also tell myself to really search for scholarships that way I would have more maney to use rent-wise and such.

If I could talk to myself as a high school senior, I would tell myself to know my own boundaries and learn the concept of "time management". If I know that I need to finish homework, I need to set aside time to do it. However, if the only time I am able to do my homework is after work, late at night, I would tell myself to only do half of it and finish the rest the next day. That way, I can get sufficient rest without overloading myself. After working on projects and homework, make time to reward yourself - go out with friends to eat, take a nap, or watch a movie. Having a reward to look forward to always gives incentive to finish your work.

use your time wisely and learn as much as you can because the road ahead will be way harder.

Learn more ways to study and accept the fact that you're not going to succeed at everything. Life is hard outside of college and trusting yourself and knowing what you want will get you far, but doing just the opposite doesn't. So be smart, know your weaknesses and work at them everyday. It's a struggle, but it's worth it.

I would have made sure I got better grades and deffinately done community service, because there are more schlarships for you as a student then.

First, I would tell myself to research more schools and apply for more scholarships. The main reason I was even able to attend college was because I received the Bright Futures scholarship through Wakulla High School and the CROP scholarship through Tallahassee Community College. I wish I would have applied for many more scholarship because I never realized how hard it is to go to school and keep a decent job. Recently, the economy has worsened causing more unemployment. Scholarships would definitely benefit my college education. Second, I wished my teachers from my younger school years would have warned me of the 'professors' that are ruling the colleges. The teachers don't have enough care for their students in colleges. I wished I could have prepare myself for turture.

I only wish that I had entered college with a more determined and goal oriented mind set to help me achieve all of my aspirations.

I would tell myself, "Daphney" study harder because it will pay off big time, stop being so depress about this new school you moved to, forget about how much you hate this school, you'll be out of here in no time. Daphney this is not the time to be lazy, Get ready for college, its what you've been looking forward to.

College is not easy and its not like high school. Remember, you have to do this for you and your parents .Daphney be prepared for the future because you have a long road ahead of you, full of oppertunities. Also, Daphney, remember that you are blessed and highly favored so don't give up, everything will fall in place for you. You must trust, also belive in yourself and always have faith. One more thing Daphney, please save your money, your going to really need it for college.
