The way a person handles the new responsibilities that they have been trusted with can either make or break them when it comes to life in college. We no longer have mom constantly bombarding us with demands to clean our room or do our homework. All of that has now been laid on us. A person has to adjust to setting aside time for their homework, and that does not mean an all nighter the night before the exam or paper is due. If a student manages their time well enough than college life will be a more positive experience. Managing your time does not mean that they have to be a groundhog and stay in their room the whole time, it simply means balance. Balance is the key to success. Yes, granted the scale should be leaning more heavily to the school work side, but don't let it weigh the whole scale down or you will miss out on all of the fun that college has to offer. However, having your mom out of your ear is nice to have when you are getting ready to go downtown, but when it comes to your laundry it would be nice to have here there! So, if you took anything from this blog understand the lessons your parents have taught you about responsibilty and apply them in a smart way to the challenges you will have to face during these next four years and the years of the "real world".
