  • First Impressions and Transformations: My Union College Experience

    2166 Words  | 5 Pages

    My first impression of Union college was not so great as I remember first arriving to this college around mid-march and still seeing half-melted snow around the campus and also after driving through Schenectady, looking at the run down buildings and I imagined if I would ever be able to live in such a place. These questions are probably what a lot of incoming students have wondered when visiting the college for the first time, without even looking at the actual college itself and I myself felt prey to this incorrect judging. However, after arriving inside the campus and taking the tour my perspective changed and I actually felt as if I could belong to this college and my tour guide took us inside the Wold hall and after looking at how some

  • The College Experience

    721 Words  | 2 Pages

    "Tomorrow is the first day of what I will become." I wrote this in my diary the night before my first day of college. I was anxious as I imagined the stereotypical college room: intellectual students, in-depth discussions about neat stuff, and of course, a casual professor sporting the tweed jacket with leather elbows. I was also ill as I foresaw myself drowning in a murky pool of reading assignments and finals, hearing a deep, depressing voice ask "What can you do with your life?" Since then, I've settled comfortably into the college "scene" and have treated myself to the myth that I'll hear my calling someday, and that my future will introduce itself to me with a hardy handshake. I can't completely rid my conscience from reality, however. My university education and college experience has become a sort of fitful, and sleepless night, in which I have wonderful dreams and ideas, but when I awaken to apply these aspirations, reality sounds as a six thirty alarm and my dreams are forgotten.
