Personal Narrative: Why I Hate College

346 Words2 Pages
UGG!! I hate college. We have to study for a test already. I mean it's our first day. Why do we already have a test!? And don’t even get me started on dorm life. OH, that place is a nightmare. My roommate is sooo loud and the bed is so hard my back hurts in the morning every day. I don’t think I can stay here any longer. And the classes are the worst. I hate the teachers so much. They are so mean but not all of the teachers are mean. Some are nice. But what I like about college is that you get to see your friends. And the classes are so long they are like two or three hours long and sometimes ten hours long.
The food court is the WORST!! We have to wait in the line for 15-20 minutes just to get your food. also the food is not that good. I guess

After a pause of almost 25 years, I am returning to the college classroom and to say that there are mixed emotions would be an understatement. Sure, I’m excited to start but also a bit fearful if I’m being honest. I’ve worked for large and international companies during this time but getting back to college has always been a goal of mine.

However, upon arriving I have found college to be rather different than my expectations. Yes, there is a decent quantity of challenging work, but it is a lot more fun. I absolutely love the fact that college is essentially a town made up of your friends. I enjoy the freedom of being able to do whatever I want, whenever I want. There is a decent amount of responsibility and ownership that comes along with this, but to me it is well worth it.

The first half of this semester was swift and I can’t believe how fast it passed by. College is a whole new world for me that I had never imagined with a lot of new experiences that I hope will shift me into a better and smarter person. There are more things I can do in college that I would have never dared to do in high school and I am happy for these new freedoms.

My high school teachers would always tell me to wait for the bell, sometimes would not let me leave and if I did not pay attention they would yell.

As people start to file in I notice most of the class is seniors but I was a junior with no clue of the future ahead of me. The seniors started to discuss the plans for life after college which started to me think. Thus, I said to myself “I’m only a junior I still have time to think of what I want to do once I graduate.”
