[00:00.00]College-A New Experience [00:04.78]College is a new and different experience for me. [00:10.03]I'm away from home,so I have many things to adjust to. [00:15.96]Being on my own,talking with friendly people, [00:21.63]and having Fridays off-these are just some things I like about college. [00:29.28]Living at college,first of all,gives me a sense of responsibility, [00:36.94]of being on my own. [00:40.49]My parents aren't around to say, [00:45.14]"No,you're not going out tonight"or"Did you finish your homework?" [00:51.98]Everything I do has to be my decision, [00:57.13]and that gives me the responsibility of handling my own life. [01:04.47]During the second week I was at college, [01:09.83]I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. [01:16.49]Before that I looked in the phone book since I had no clue [01:23.12]about any banks around here or where they were located. [01:29.68]Someone told me about a good bank:Continental Federal Savings. [01:36.44]I went to the bank and made decisions for myself [01:41.98]-whether to have a checking [01:46.03]or savings account and whether or not to get a MASTER card. [01:52.69]That was one example of having responsibility [01:58.15]now that I'm on my own and of making my own decisions. [02:04.40]Friendly people:that's another aspect I like about college [02:11.16]On my first day (and even now) people were nice to me. [02:17.61]I came to Mary mount University here in Virginia from New York [02:25.16]and -even though I'd been here before [02:29.71]-I was a bit confused about where I was going. [02:35.27]My mother and I drove in, [02:39.92]not knowing the building we were supposed to go to, [02:45.56]and the guard was especially nice:with a smile, [02:51.42]he told us what building we were looking for [02:56.98]and where we could park our car. [03:01.42]My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, [03:08.06]and I knew had to go through some glass dorrs [03:13.91]-but my mother and I didn't know which ones. [03:19.05]Some upperclassmen saw ne and asked,"Are you a new student?" [03:25.69]When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, [03:31.44]one said"Oh,just follow us;that's where we're going." [03:38.78]Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm [03:43.82]because there are friendly people around to talk with. [03:49.77]Finally-to and to my likes of college [03:55.34]-I love having Fridays off, [03:59.67]I wouldn't be able to cope with five days of classes in a row. [04:07.41]Also,I love to sleep in.One Thursday night, [04:15.16]my roommate and I and the people across the hall went to Georgetown. [04:22.92]We got in rather early the next morning, [04:27.86]and my roommate(Juanita)and I decided to sleep in, [04:34.70]something I couldn't do in high school. [04:39.56]I do like things about college-being on my own, [04:45.70]talking with friendly people,having Fridays off, [04:51.37]but this doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. [04:57.01]Although I like college,I can still get homesick: [05:03.36]New York is a pretty good place,too.
