College/University

So I was lurking the off-topic section and I realized I have not created a topic here in awhile. So I thought I would nonchalantly post here and check up to see how everyone is doing. Anyone else here in their 1st year of college/uni? How are you guys liking it so far? Any epic stories, etc? So far it has been one of the top moments in my life. There is something awesome about starting something new, especially since I am in a totally different country for the next four years. I hope everyone who just started college or is continuing their studies is enjoying it as much as I am. Nothing like laying in your room while listening to Miike Snow and roaming the internet on a Sunday night haha.

I feel like I fucked up my first term by dropping engin101 (intro programming class) and having only 10 credit hours this term. shit.

Got my first test coming up this wednesday. Haven't studied yet but I'll do that, I think.

Aced my first test, possibly failed my second test and probably will fail my 3rd test tomorrow, just sooo damn much materials to read through and nothing seems to stick to my head..

Yea, first year here. I kinda like it so far but, well, its kinda hard. All these Maths we learn... Anyway, I enjoy it and, as u said, not a single boring day:) Without this "uni-life" I'd feel like I missed something.
Well, gonna have like 5-6 tests in 2 weeks so I'm gonna have some "exciting" hours learning all these stuff:) But, you know, you gotta work hard for your succes.

this basicly means when you're about to study you'll go like "hmm i'll do it later" to later and later and then its wednesday ^^

Just don't give up:) That's how it starts. Almost all of my friends started uni now. It's the same with them and with me too...

I'm in my second year. Just finished a big presentation (powerpoint) on a Needs Assessment for disaster response. Working on an 8 page paper that is due tomorrow, only have 2 1/2 pages done so far. I also have a test tomorrow in a different class. The power went out for two hours earlier this morning because it's stormy, and that was the only break/fun I've had today.

Yesterday and Friday were good though, Sundays just suck :soosad:

First year engineering.. computer systems
so far so good
no real challenges as of yet. My elective is architectural history, which is mindless memorizing.

Not many good looking girls in engineering either =( Gotta work on talking to people living in res to find out about parties..

If all goes according to plan, I'll be graduating this coming June. Finally. But I got plans to come back - either to continue my studies or take another major. I know I'm going to take at least 1 photography class per sem after I'm done with my current major.

First year community college.. I have no stories that matters. I must say I'm tired of school even if it's practically 2 days a week. <Took classes on tues/thurs except one for m/w/f but an hour a day>

I really hope not. I'm finding first year university easy as hell.

I've heard the exact opposite for engineering. First year is simple and then it gets insanely hard.

Yup, first two years in engineering are easy. Junior and Senior year are a bitch and a half

It's like you know me!

No but in all seriousness.. I didn't actually mean the actual work is hard. Kinda hard to explain what I mean..

4th year in engg college, worrying about jobs, projects, marks and such but nothing overly big(for now). Man you guys studied in 1st year? for me it was like "last night fight" before all the tests/exams.

It's great, but still can't wait to finish it.
