Appreciating my Choice of School
The first week of school is officially in history! I will admit that I was nervous about the social aspect and the academic environment in college, but now that I have attended classes I am happy about being at Wes!
My First Week as a College Student
As my first week of college slowly becomes history I can say I survived. I had so many fears and many doubts but in the midst of it all, I decided to keep calm and enjoy every moment that has been granted to me. I’ve gained new friends, new study places, a new local church…
Fruit of My Labor
It has been 4 weeks now since the first day of college! And let me say, I LOVE and enjoy every moment of it. The environment is so different from high school. College is seriously a place where you can start fresh, and truly find yourself and what you want. I was instantly molded into…
Pre College Jitters
When I made the decision to go to UCSB, I had doubts surrounding all around me from people who constantly told me that it was just a “party school” and that I should have chosen UC Davis. Before I submitted my SIR, I’m not going to lie, I also had some uncertainty but then I…
New School, Same Me
I am the type of person to overthink everything, but I still decided to go to a college that I had never stepped foot in and that is hours away from home. The first time I finally saw my college was during orientation. The atmosphere was different, yet a bit refreshing. “Wow, it’s so hot…

After my first week attending SF State University, I can say that college is an amazing place! Throughout the five days that I have been a SF State Gator, I have a lot of people and have already learned a lot. The learning process in college is so much different than it was in high…
First week of college
I moved in on Saturday and it was so chaotic. My roommates had picked each other and had wanted a double, so I was going to be the random roommate that just ruined their plans. I wasn’t sure if I was going to get along with them. We didn’t talk much as we unpacked, since…
First Week
So I moved into Chico last Monday on the 17th of August, because I’m in a program at Chico called TRIO (SSS). The program gave me Workshops, took me and a group students kayaking. Things like kayaking I’m not very used to because in Richmond or Bay Area we didn’t do unique activities like that…
STARTED COLLEGE!
Starting college seemed to me very scary. Everyday I kept counting down how many days till the first day of class. Well actually, it wasn’t that bad. I was Slightly nervous because I feel like there would be more intelligent people than I. They all look like me, have the same goal, and we are…
Pre College lessons
I spent my summer doing a different kind of learning. Some would call it an outdoor experience but I call it a life experience. I was a summer camp counselor at YMCA Camp Loma Mar. My camp name was J-Rod and I carried a frisbee or a ball with me just about everywhere. This summer…
