I have cleared my college and now I am a businessman.I still remember the day when I stepped into my college that is 50 kms from my hometown.It was huge and beautiful building.At first,I could not understand where I should get my admission form.I asked an old student and he helped me.When I was filling in the form,a boy came up to me and asked me where I was from.Thereafter we started talking to each other.He was very informal and it was he who made him familiar with the new atmosphere.It was a very interesting day and I would never forget it.

Absolutely right.As we enter college,we get a real view of our society.A large number of new faces,different thoughts,a new atmosphere and an exposure to the society we were not familiar with before entering college.I was fortunate even in one more sense.It is,I didn't have to face ragging.

There is always a bit of excitement in seeing your new school. College can definitely be an exciting time! My first college I went to (only for 1 year) was the University of Minnesota (in MN of the US) and its' only about 2 miles from my home. I remember being pretty excited about the whole thing, but also very overwhelmed - it's such a large campus! I felt like a dork walking around with my campus map but it definitely did Help me. Best of luck to you in this new endeavor!

Hello to you Saberblue. May you enjoy studying when you're already in college. I think it's really fun to go to a new school. You're curious what will happen on the first day of school. You would think about the new friends that you will meet. You would also enjoy learning a lot from your new teachers. You will learn some new strategies in learning. You would also appreciate the buildings and other things you could see in the campus. You would also join some clubs which have something to do with your interest. In my case, yes, I could still remember the first time I stepped into my college. I rode the jeepney in going there. It was just maybe five minutes away from home by jeepney. There were a lot of students everywhere I looked at. I felt a little nervous because it was my first time to be there and my classes would already start. I wondered if it was just easy to have new friends. I think I was still a little shy that time but it was good I already had some new friends before we went into the room where we had our first class. I think my classmates were also wonderful. They were also very excited to study in college just like me. I noticed their news bags, notebooks, pens and clothes. We also introduced ourselves in our class. I think it was a bit bothering standing up and your classmates would look at you while talking but I just took the floor. I told some things about me because others also told some things about them. I mean all of us did it. Then, when we had our vacant time, we also went somewhere for us to have our picture taking. We would use the pictures for our ID. We needed to fall in line so they could take our photos. While falling in line, I was able to meet some new friends again. I was able to talk with my other classmates so I was happy. They were really friendly. After that, we also bought some books that our teachers asked us to buy. We were really happy having our first books in college. My first day of school was really memorable to me. I couldn't forget the friends I met on that day. I could still communicate with them using Facebook. They would always be special to me. I also love the teachers I had, they were really good at teaching. Good luck to you. Just enjoy your college days. Enjoy learning from great teachers and having some new friends. Just enjoy everything. Good day to you. :)

I went to college in year of 2005, i remember every detail about the journey. It would take 16 hours by tain + 3 hours by bus + 2 hours by boat from my hometown to school.It was my first time to go far from home, so was my father. We were on the train at 10:00,pm and reached to my college about 10 pm of the next day. Both of us were tired, i lived in dormintory but my father wasnt allowed in. In order to save money, he stayed the whole night in the park. My college is located in a island with beautiful beach and coconut palm, but my father returned home without enjoying any scenery. It was a hard time for me, i love my father but there was nothing i can do.

you are really a filial child to your parents.they must be very proud of you,and there still be many things you can and have to do for them.i believe even your father slept in the park for one night, pride and joy are full of his heart bringing him warmth to be with you.that's what we call LOVE.O(n_n)O

Our school is behind our house so I just walk 10 meters. When I first stepped college I felt nervous because I know I'll meet new friends, new faces and new attitude. And nervous that they're more intelligent than me. College days, I can say was the best stage happen during my school days. Especially when I met my circle of friends. I really enjoyed their company..it's by them that I've enhanced my self-esteem and self-worth. ahai..I miss them

When I first stepped into my college it was already september 7nd (school started 15th or so). I saw the building from the highway and it looked enormous, but the shape of the building was a bit weird. When i got inside the building i was a little bit disappointed because the walls & floors were just concrete, it looked a bit dull. I was starting to think I'd have long & boring days in that school, but that was not the case. The first few days of school were a bit awkward for me, trying to get to know new people, etc. But when i got to know some people it was fun. Now 1 year later I've had a great time in this school and I've made a couple of new friends. I will continue my studies :)

I have left college for 12 years and my college has been moved to other areas,i still remember the first time to step into my college.I went to college by subway,together with my father,and when we got off,there were a college bus waiting for.on the bus two seniors introduced themselves and told we what to do next,how carefully and kindly they spoke!with a nervous and excited heart i stepped into college,and there were a classmate waiting for,he helped we move luggage,took we to bedroom and classroom.I remeber he clearly,and made friend with he from then on.The college's time is very precious,and i learned many things in the college,of course also with regret and lessons!I will never forget those times in all my life!
