College Essay: Something New in my Life

The Start of Something New

I guess you could say I was living in my own world just like anybody my age. Nothing else around me was going on that would make me say, do or be someone different. But when that day came, I knew it would be something new in my life. Exciting?...I don't know, but scary for sure. High School was waiting to fill in the next for years of my life.

In the beginning, High School was not all thaat great. But with time I learned so many things and made new friends. Technology was abig part of it of course. I have to admit; I knew nothing compared to what the school taught me. Learning all these new thing about computers made me realize that I could go far and beyond. I understand that my learing abilities are a talent I posses and my zeal to learn contribute to a lot of the potential I have. I could use this somewhere else.

My High School career did not end here. This time around I took school more serious. My grades improved abd I knew this was not going to be easy. School was not and is not a jest for me and I am trying to get the most out of it. Going to High School gave me a vhance to "erase what I had previously done" and start agian, but this time with much more caution. I could use my great desire of achieving somewhere else.

Something new was really starting in my life. Before High School I was a very shy person. I learned that I could not continue like this any more, I had to meet new people and be more social. And so it happened this way! I opened up and became a new me, in that sense of course. I am now a people person. Interacting with people is one of my hobbies and talents, even though it may not always be easy. I could, though, use these skills somewhere else.

Where? College of course. College needs people like me; open-minded to the world of learning., great serious students, and social people like me. High School showed me that I can do all of these thing at a low level, so why can't that be the case with College? I know it is possible. With me at you school, I can help contribute to make it a better place for others and myself, than what it already is. I want it to be the something new in my life.
