College Life
Here are some thoughts from a classmate, on what college students have to go through, and what they're capable of:

  • People who go to college are incredible. We go to classes.
  • We read and absorb and are comprehensively tested on heavy amounts of various materials.
  • We sleep very little.
  • Someone is always sick.
  • Someone is always complaining.
  • We become attached to close friends.
  • We smother each other.
  • We lean too much.
  • We think often of the past and want to go back.
  • We know we cannot.
  • We all have separated lives, families, backgrounds, and pasts.
  • We live totally different from how we used to live.
  • We are frustrated and sometimes want to give up, but we never stop trying.
  • We disregard health.
  • We eat awful foods.
  • We are forced to think about the future. We are scared and confused.
  • We reach out for things, yet we don't find them.
  • We try to sort out our minds, which are filled with studies, worries, problems, memories, emotions -- powerful feelings.
  • We wander the halls looking for happiness.
  • We hurt -- a lot.
  • We keep going, though, because above all else, we never stop learning, growing, changing, and most important, dreaming. Dreams keep us going and they always will. All we can do is be thankful that we have something to hold on to, like dreams and each other.
