Well im, almost 30 (next year) but my 21st was an absolute blast.
Life was great, i was young, hot, skinny and living it up.
The years that pass by from 21 should be carefully thought through. Have a party now and then, but if i can give you any advice, your 20's are when you should be thinking towards your retirement. I know it sounds messed up, but believe me, in the end, the policies/ life insurance you have taken out in your twenties will surely pay off heading towards your fifties etc.
As for college, you go boy! Study, be the best you can be...definitely take time out to really think about your future..
I know other 21 year olds probably dont have much of a care in the world, but you need to be one of those that is one step ahead!
Good luck for your twenties and have a blast, but be sensible!
Hope this helped?
College is fast paced at the first finding you way around campus. The professors treat you as an adult not some high school student who needs his head filled with useless knowledge. Professors treat you as the adult you are and will sit and speak to you if you need help or just to have a cup of coffee.
It may be slow going at the start as a freshman, but you will meet new people. Just talk to someone sitting next to you in a class and you can make a friend. The draw back is that the friends you make in one semester you may not see again after that unless you come across them on campus. I make a lot of knew friends once a new semester class began. Oh and you don't have to raise your hand to make a comment or ask a question. I have had professors say that there are no dumb questions or answers.
I loved going to my classes and getting to pretty well pick what you take helps. There is usually a variety of classes that will fulfill your requirements so you are not locked in to something as in high school.
They purpose in college is to grow and broaden your horizons. Learn to think in a different way. "Think way outside the box."
It was a great experience for me and one day I would hope to be able to finish my time, but it not, I have taken away so much in the 5 years I was there to carry me through with what I have ahead of me.
