My Greatest Failure?

Phoenix

My greatest failure in college was adjusting to it. It took me forever but I think that I have gotten as close to adjusted as I am going to get to Southern. As I have said in numerous blogs before, it was hard for me to get used to college. Driving to and from campus seemed like a huge hassle, I felt like I was missing out on a bunch of things happening at night on campus and the cost of college scared me into not enjoying it.

It was scary to think that I am out around $13,000 for one years worth if education. I don’t like the fact that that college costs so much and its so stressful. I let myself get hung up on it. It stressed me out to no end and made me hate college. But I think that my comeback was my biggest success.

I made college more enjoyable to me; I was sick and tired of hating it. I started by simply staying on campus more often, I would stay later and I started sleeping over twice a week. (that’s as many nights as you can stay in one building, its stupid yes I know) I also spaced out my homework schedule more and more so that I wouldn’t be so stressed out about homework every night, and I had more time to just hang out. I also tried to bring in friendly reminders of the things that I love to campus. I showed how I did this in my final movie. So my biggest failure led to my biggest success.
