My time at my cc was a blast! I have to admit though that my first semester there did make me feel like a loser because I saw all the people from hs who were the annoying, “I’m gonna go to college to collect a financial aid check as long as I can get away with it, and have my clique around to make me feel like somebody important” around. I eventually told myself I was going to make the best of it and did by joining the poli sci club and organizing anti-war rallies on campus and taking a group of students from various cc’s to sacramento to protest the tuition hikes which were still imposed on us this year. But yeah find something you are interested in and get involved. CC is a great way of saving money while figuring out what you want to do. I feel had I gone to UCLA straight out of high school (I did have that option but no $$$) I would not be sure of what I wanted to do and prob wouldnt be doing something I enjoy doing. Now I am older and know exactly what I want to do. Make your cc experience your own I thought I was going to be stuck in hell and instead I 'm actually going to miss Pasadena city college.
