Even before this post was assigned, I've been comparing my high school and college experience. This is my second semester at Stockton, and I've noticed no change in difficulty when comparing it to my high school class load. In fact, so far, college has been easier with less work, easier syllabuses and smaller class sizes. In high school, I took seven AP level courses, and the work load was exceedingly heavier. College is easy. It's so easy in fact, that I am slacking off and it's killing me. In high school, I had no down time, so I had to fill every second with homework, or essays, and other work. In high school, I took AP Composition. I had an essay due every week, with reading assignments on top of that. I am SO! excited to only have to write two major essays for this course. The two in class essays are going to be a treat as well. I just need to move up to the higher level courses. I don't want to sound like an arrogant person, but I know that I can handle more work than what is being given to me. Sadly, I can't take anymore classes because of the maximum credit level and the rule on academic overload. :/

I like to read whenever I can. I don't have a particular place I like to read, although I do prefer to be comfortable. But, as we all know, you can't always curl up with a blanket every time you read. I can read no matter how loud it is, or how many other people are in the room. But! I can absolutely not read comfortably in a car, or in my hammock. I get sick feeling. Although, it's funny that I can get motion sickness from reading in a car, but I can read perfectly fine on my boat without getting seasick. I can pretty much sit down, and crack open my very, very worn copy of Nine Stories and enjoy it anywhere. I usually can read something once and comprehend almost everything.

Expectations at The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey:
None. 


This is my second semester, and so far, too many spontaneous wonderful things have already happened. So, for me that to have any more expectations would be nuts. I've already got a wonderful job in the general field of my major, I'm doing well in school, and I've become friends with very strong, loyal, loving people. I don't know if I can expect anymore. And I feel as though if I did expect anymore, I would be pushing my luck. This year has already been a huge improvement from the last and I'm perfectly content where I am.
