I Am In College

With two weeks into my first year at college has been a ride. You'd think being 5 hours away from home would make you homesick as can be, but that wasn't the case at all. I've been so occupied with all the fun experiences that college has to offer, i've barely had time to even think about life back at home. Or to even miss it for that matter. There's so much to see, do and experience. I've decided to join a club and get involved rather than just being a hermit all year. My classes do have me a bit stressed, but nothing too bad, or yet at last. I was blessed to go to a college where I go in with 2 of my best friends , and one I have the,luck of getting to room with one of 'em. I can't help but feel bad for avoiding the life I led. Religious, conservative, and morally based. 350 miles farther, and it's like im a whole other person. I don't go to church, I dress more provocative (but im in no way promiscuous, it's one of those instances of "If my mother could see me now." But thank goodness she and my hectic family/church family are at a huge distance. Now, I'm work based, attend every class and I make sure my grades are up so im not flunking my first flipping semester and back at home. Hopefully all goes wellllllll

Sounds like college is going much better for you than it did for me. I'm so happy for you.
