During this I try to check out what CCBC has to offer. I may have 2minute long conversations after classes, venture to the library, or even relax in one of the many cofortable chairs that just so happen to be in interesting places all over the college campus. However, all of these attempts fail, and I end up back where I began before college, driving around a community I have gotten so used to. I relocate back to this community due to its familiarity. I hang out with and talk to high school friends, volunteer at my high school, attend their games, visit neighbors, neighborhood parks.
However, by staying in my home area, I, not on purpose, neglect my college experience. I still dont know all the clubs, the sports teams, nor upcoming events. I struggle with the separation from my past communities, and I'm not sure how to break the habit.
Go Gators, Home of the Gators, Gator Alumni!!! (whats the mascot for CCBC? I dont know...do we even have one?)
After struggling with transitioning completly from High School to College, it will probably be easier to transfer to a 4-year school since it wont be as close as community college. At a four-year school, I will most likely be living on campus. This will make it harder for me to be able to leave college too often and return home. At Towson, their education program is really popular. With this being my major, it will be easier to determine my place at the college. This should hold my attention more on school and campus life rather than the next community yard sale in my dads neighborhood.
