My Freshman Experience: Sarah Njoku

My freshman experience was an emotionally draining. It was the biggest learning experience that I faced in my life so far. The hardest part was the separation from my family. I am very close to my parents and siblings and could not go a day without talking to one of my family members. In the beginning of my freshman year I called my family 2-3 times a day. As the months went on I realized that is phase I was going through was a part of my of life. I literally had to tell myself that I could not live with my parents forever and this had to happen one day.

I did a lot of growing up in the course of that two semester period. I had to learn how to be on my own, make the right choices for my life and most importantly be sure to keep God in my life by going to church every Sunday. There are so many things that can go wrong in your first year of college and there are so many things that can go right! It's all about opening your eyes and learning from your experiences.
