The Choices College Brings.

I don't know if it was the clouded weather or that I just had such a wonderful weekend, but as I went to school today my eyes showed me things I had neglected to see. As I was walking to the FLASH bus, two guys passed me that were speaking a different language and it made me think two different things. One; ASU really does have a vast variety of students with many interesting cultures and two; I should really just suck it up when it comes to French because it would be pretty amazing if I could speak it...even if it is only a little bit. As I was on the FLASH bus, it passed through Mill Avenue. Mill is really a cute street with many places to eat, relax and shop. Sitting there looking out the window, I noticed how Mill brings such a convience to the students and local employees. Years ago, I would have been intimidated by all the college students and adults on lunch, now, I want to make some extra time one of these days to stop there and get a cup of coffee and look at all the neat shops that you don't see everywhere and sit and people watch.

ASU has many other neat things to offer, you could go to a football game and cheer on your fellow peers or get involved in an organization. It is truly amazing the differences between college and high school, can you say freedom? Freedom to wear whatever you want, go to the bathroom without asking, even leave class to talk on that important phone call. And from my personal observation, there is no real punishment or embarresment from the teacher for being late. It is nice to have all these adult freedoms, but what do you think you'll do with them when you have such nice options? Most likely you will be late once or twice and leave early, dress a little scandalous and send a text message or two, but hopefully you will also realize that attending class and doing homework are two choices that you should make more than a couple of times.
