College 100. Why Am I Here?

From my experience so far, I am glad I joined PSEC. At the start, I came here to prepare myself for college and my life after that. I now know that it was a good choice, because my idea of what life at PSEC was going to be like turned out to be totally different from what it turned out to be. So far, PSEC is teaching me what it's going to be like in a real college. It is serving as a wakeup call that I desperately needed. College is a lot tougher than I thought it was going to be. A skill that I want to develop by the end of my PSEC experience is public speaking. Throughout my life, I have never been good at public speaking, and I know that I will need that skill in the future. Another skill that I need to work on is organization. Procrastination goes in hand with organization, and I definitely need to work on that too. Currently, I have no idea what I want to do as a career when I'm older. My hope for this program is that it will help me decide what I want to do by forcing me to look at different colleges and majors. In 4 years, while I'm looking back on my journey at PSEC 4 years from now, my goal is that I will see a time in my life when I was breaking out of my shell and learning about the real world, preparing me to make my life the best it can be.
