I look back on the year and reflect upon all I have experienced.
- I had a rough start to the year, the sudden transition was hard on me
- I was pointed out and made fun-of on two ocassions by other students
- I met a lot of people, many I like, some I didn't care for
- There were times where I felt like a million bucks, and there times where I felt like ending it all
In the end, I was able to blend in with the others, although I still am in a shell socially. One year ago I was hoping that my move to oshkosh would break me out of my shell, however I did not know about aspergers, and with the year at an end, I was unsucsessful in finding a group of people of whom I could fit into.
I had some unexpected things happen two. My change of major and having to drop two classes off my schedule.
I really wish I didn't have to drop my math class, but I would not have passed that class. My math professor was arrogant person who didn't do anything remotely close to teaching and he had a superiority complex to him that really bothered me. If I can't pass math, I don't get my degree, however, I've managed to do it before, and I hope that streak will continue.
I, being your polar opposite (read: senior on the verge of graduating), have managed to survive four years at Castleton State College in Vermont. I did pretty much the exact same things my first year on campus, though I had to drop my French class because it was cancelled due to low attendance. What did I wind up taking in its place? A rock climbing course which lasted the latter half of the semester. However, unlike you, I didn't have to change my major.
Anyway, congratulations on making it through your first year. Good luck to you the rest of the way!
