As I stepped into my first college class a wave of vulnerability washed over me. I looked at the faces that stared back at me and I felt slightly intimidated and slightly exuberant at the same time. I quickly took a seat and wiped the sweat off of my forehead. It was extremely hot outside and I had to walk from my dorm to my class in the Texas heat. A few hours ago, as I was showering, I would have never really expected that I would feel this way. It felt like I was starting school all over again from the beginning, it was a really horrible feeling! As the class started I slowly began to breathe easily again. I felt stupid. Of course I knew that college was a big step, but that didn’t mean that I had to be scared of it. And we all know only the strong survive,at least that’s how I see it. And I will survive, I have the power and will to do great. By the end of the day I had realized that all of my classes were a breeze. Yeah I knew it was only the first day, but I could pull through because I’m me and I know what I have to do. :)
