Since this is the last semester of my freshman year and have gotten use to Georgia State, I want to share with you my experiences so far, from the beginning to where I am now. I remember this time last year I was a high school senior, anticipating coming to Georgia State and it doesn’t seem so long ago. I remember getting the “pre- freshmen” jitters because I was the only person that I knew coming to GSU and that meant that I would have to start over and make new friends. To help make friends, I began to add people on Facebook who had on their pages that they were going to GSU and I began to talk to them and saw that they had the same fears that I did, which eased mine because I saw that I wasn’t the only person going through the fear of starting over.
My first day of school was ok, I walked around by myself and found classes and I met a few new people along the way, but I hardly see them or speak to them now though. I really did not have a hard time adjusting to being on my own, and I never got homesick, and to this day I haven’t been homesick. During my first semester I was in a freshmen learning community and although I met great people in the community, I kind of regret being in one because the GSU 1010 did not count towards hours and looking back, I took classes that I was not interested in, but I managed to do very well my first semester. During my first semester I was in a party promotion group, which meant I got into pretty much any party I wanted to go to for free, I really enjoyed that and I met great people through it. Overall, I can honestly say that I had a great first semester and I am glad that I could manage my party and school life without losing myself in the city of Atlanta.

My second semester is going pretty good so far, I have a lot more studying to do though. I am still going out to parties and I am still meeting new people. I really hope that I continue to keep myself in line and do well in this semester to keep my HOPE scholarship. The only problem that I am having so far is lack of sleep, but what college student isn’t having that problem
