Why College is better than High School!

         I recently posted a video on my youtube channel for college students and incoming Freshman. Something I didn't get into was the benefits of College over High School.

College can be hard with all the classes you take, books you read, tests, professors... the list goes on. All of that being said there is so much greatness that comes with being a college student. 

First things first, pat yourself on the back!!! You did it, you're a college student! Attending college is something to be proud of, college is no easy task. I'm going to go through a list of things that are awesome about college. 

- You are on your own! You no longer live with your parents. You can be free to explore and do what you want without being told otherwise!

- In addition, for the most part you wont be told no, or that you can't go somewhere! If you wanna go out on a school night and drink... YOU CAN!!!! (I don't recommend doing this..)

- You wont have class from 8-3... There is a good chance you may be able to work your schedule to have off two days a week, or no class on fridays! Forget 7 hour school days!

-There are clubs, groups, and people who will like the same things you do! There is no way you will go around without friends unless you stick in your room by yourself on purpose. 

- You can do things on your own time... No need to answer to parents, or teachers for that matter... 

-When the professor is done teaching you get to leave... you wont have to hang around like in high school...

- If your professor is sick.. there is a good chance that means NO CLASS for you! Unless you have a shitty TA who holds class regardless. 

-You have access to amazing tools like computer programs, gym equipment, opportunities like speakers who come talk about various topics. There are amazing shows to see that are put on by the theater department, or the school brings in cool shows like comedians, musicians, or broadway shows. 

Some people Ball State has had since I started attending. 

- Luke Bryan

- Blue Man Group

- Jason Mraz

- Jim Gaffigan 

- Hunter Hayze

- Florida Georgia Line 

-There are others that may or may not be interesting, or that I 

am unable to think of at the moment. 

College has so many amazing thing to do. Plus there are no longer the cliques that previously existed in high school. There wont be people that will pick on you, and the chances that you'll have to put up with those mean kids that use to poke fun for no reason is practically non existent. You get to escape the life you had regardless of what you use to deal with. This could be negative.. If you use to be popular there is a good chance no one here will care how "cool" you were in high school. No one cares that you were a football player, cheerleader, or voted best dressed! College is a small representation of the real world! No one cares how cool other teenagers thought you were.. now you are just another fish in this GIANT ocean where you do NOT matter! It's a humbling experience!!!
