<li>College is a chance for you to start over</li>
</ul>
<p>When I was in high school, I was extremely responsible, played sports, had a job, showed horses, never drank/smoked. But when I got to college, I wasn’t playing sports anymore, I didn’t have a job, I sold all my horses and so trying to start over… I became a socialite. I went to sorority outings with my friends, I partied, and I was completely miserable. </p>
<p>It took me a while to realise that when you are happy with your life before college, it is best to just continue doing those things while you are adjusting. Getting used to college is hard enough without trying to become a new person too.</p>
