Before I entered college, I imagined that college life was free, where I could travel during holidays and see a larger and broader world when there were no classes. However, in the last one year, due to the COVID-19, even returning home on weekends and holidays became a problem.
Before I entered college, my imagination of college was chatting and playing with my roommates, but in the last one year, I and the other three roommates were not in the same department, and we kept silent with each other, further deepening my sense of loneliness.
For the past year, I've been told that college is enjoyable and comfortable. So when I first entered college last year, I was very excited and ready to relax. However, this is not the case. College is just relatively more free time than high school. In high school and junior high school, all of our time seems to be spent on study, while in college, only part of the time is spent on clubs, campus activities, and various competitions. It's not that easy. At the same time, I always think that when I go to college, learning will be easy and no pressure. But in the past year, I also felt unprecedented pressure in my study. Different from high school rote learning and brush learning. University learning is more flexible, but also more profound and difficult. It is no longer simply memorizing words, but requires more in-depth thinking. I've put a lot of effort into it over the past year.
Myths: Before last September, I thought I won't have to do gymnastics or jogging any more, and I can sleep enough in college.
Facts: There are still physical tests and morning runs. Different from the middle school, the morning running time become more free. In the matter of sleep, we still have morning reading classes and evening self-study classes in freshman year. In addition, we have more ways of entertainment, such as mobile phones and computers, which can also affect the quality of our sleep. Different schedules with roommates are also a factor.
In the past, I thought that universities could definitely get up early every day and go to the playground for running and exercise. In fact, if you read in the morning, you won't get up until eight o'clock in the morning and you will sleep all the time.
I used to think that I could keep my high school learning attitude in college. However, after I entered college, I unconsciously began to indulge myself, not as hard as high school.
I think there is still a lot of college homework, but in fact, there is only one point of college homework. Most of the homework pays more attention to group cooperation and hands-on ability, and teachers pay more attention to classroom communication.
Myths: I thought the study mode in college was the same as in high school, it was fixed and rigid, even if there was interaction in class.
Facts: they are quite different, in college teachers will reture the classroom to the students, let the students become the leaders of the class, which can greatly increase the participation and motivation of students.
Before going to college, I thought I didn't have to suffer from physical education, but the university still had physical education, morning running, and even physical examination.
When I was in high school, I had to get up early every day to go to morning reading. I thought the university would be much easier, but I did not realize that the university also has morning reading and evening self-study.
When I was in high school, I was very busy every day and had almost no time for myself, so before entering college, I thought that college should be easy and there was a lot of free time, but in fact, a lot of spare time in the college was used to do preview and review, and there was no specific person or course that forced me to get various certificates. I have to spend my spare time preparing for these exams. Self-control is essential in such a situation.
Before coming to the university, I thought the school life should be colorful, there is a lot of free time. However, I find that there are still many classes, I need to attend a lot of meetings, I need to deal with a lot of chaotic things, and sometimes I feel irritable and distressed. I used to think it was easy, but after going to college, I still need to get many certificates, I need to learn how to manage myself, and I also need to consider and prepare for my future.
At the beginning, my concept of college was still stuck in the mouth of parents, and it was easy to go to college, I thought that my time in college was relaxed, pleasant, and without any pressure, but when I really entered the university, I understood that I needed to face more challenges in college, not only to complete academic tasks, but also to deal with various relationships, there would be pressure from peers, and there would be more anxiety.
For the past year, which was also my first year at college, my feeling was quite different from what I've heard of before. Before I entered college, I thought college life should be free and relaxed. But as a matte of fact, I had mandatory morning reading and evening self-study, and that actually made me feel a little bit of tedious. I also found that we have to get so many certificates, and that made me kind of nervous.
When I was in high school, I had a fixed set of three points and one line, countless homework, and time that I could not control, and I had to follow the teacher in the course. However, after entering college, I found that college pays more attention to the autonomy of learning, and we have more free time to study or to have fun.For me college is freer than high school.
The college life of the past year was a little different from what I imagined in high school. I thought university life would be very colorful, but in fact, I spent lots of time sleeping when I did not have lessons. Of course, it may be my personal reason. And I thought I wouldn't need to run when I went to college, but I didn't expect to complete the school tasks.
Myth: in high school, everyone around me told me that you should study hard. Now it's easy to wait until you get tired of studying. Then I always thought that college is a very relaxed and happy time.
Fact: I think there is a lot of free time in college, but there is also a lot of pressure in learning. If you set a goal for yourself, in fact, most of the free time still needs to continue to study hard.
At first, I was filled with expectations for college life. I hope I can improve myself and make friends, but the fact is that I am so introverted that I dare not actively communicate with others. In the past year, I prefered being alone and stayed silent. Although there was a gradual change in focus on learning later, progress is not very obvious. Once I felt lost and failed, but next I will set goals and work hard to learn.I will strive to break through myself and make up for the shortcomings and regrets of the previous year.
When I was a senior high school student, I was told that you would have many free time in the college. And college life is said to be easy. But this is not the case. We do have many free time and less academic pressure. However, we take this free time to attend club and volunteer activities. In addition, we have many competitions ahead of us. We should upgrade ourselves and get prepared for the future. College life is really busy and rich.
In high school, I look forward to having more time for myself in college. In addition to gaining professional knowledge and improving thinking ability. I can also participate in a variety of activities and meet like-minded friends. I can participate in various competitions, see better people, and learn from them. However, when I really came to the university life, I was overwhelmed by many choices, coupled with the anxiety of being surrounded by strangers and being far away from home. After two weeks, I gradually adapted to the university life and then participated in activities according to my own situation, met more friends, and gradually enriched my life.
In the past one year,I learned more knowledge during the weekdays. And on the weekends, I went out and tried different food with my friends. At the same time, I also actively participated in volunteer activities inside and outside the school to make some contributions to the society.
There is still a gap between my ideal college life and the reality.
Myth:There is not a lot of pressure to study, there are a lot of club activities, and a lot of team building activities.
Fact:There are many professional exams to be taken, need to preview before class need to review after class, many school club activities do not want to participate in, nothing interesting
Myths: In college, it is not necessarily for us students to pay much attention to learning.
Facts: The life in college is really rich and colorful, which do not mean that we spend most of our spare time on entertainment. On the contrary, as a college student, we must focus on study and improve ourselves from physical and psychological aspects. For the rest of our time, we can do what we are eager to do, such as travelling and shopping.
I thought the life in college were different from the life in senior high school, there were no morning reading and evening self-study. But the fact is there are. We almost have to attend them everyday, it's a bit tiresome.
Please share the myths vs facts concerning college life you have had in the past one year.
The myths is contradictory with facts,it means an identity transition.As a fresh student, I once imagined my college life was colorful and gently because of my percieve as a childhood.Ironically, There is no doubt that it was a cluster of small society. It gives you some time to teach you how to handle things peacefully as well as following responsibility make you must take on.So you truly go through an adult world, the rule of laws, knowing something exist but you never happen or hide before.That was a fact.
Myths: I used to consider that college life is fulfilling and free, with less stress and pressure. College students have opportunities to get touch with the society and travel around the country in our spare time.
Facts: To be frank, we need better time arrangement to make time for our hobbies and entertainment based on the completion of all the work. When I was a fresher in college, I was not mature or strong enough to deal with all those difficulties without my parents.
Before going to college, I had been thinking that there was no need to wake up early to attend classes. In fact, the 8:00 am class now has become a pain for me.I thought leaving home to go to school would be a very painful thing for me, but I made intimate friends and roommates at school, ate and played with friends, and the courses also made me feel fulfilled, all of which diluted my longing for home.
In the past, adults always said, "When you go to college, it will be easy", so when I stepped into the university gate, I was still looking forward to the rich campus life of the university.
I used to think that I would make a lot of friends in college, people would hang out a lot, students and teachers would become very close friends, and the schoolwork would not be too heavy. But the fact is, unlike in high school, teachers and classmates spend a lot of time together every day. In the freshman year, I spent most of my time with my roommates, and I didn't have deep interaction with other students. I couldn't give them a helping hand when they needed help or comfort, so my relationship with most of them was limited to classmates. As for parties, we don't have the time, energy or money to go out often, and there are only a handful of places around our school worth going to.
When I was a freshman, I also joined the student Union, I used to think it was cool to join the student union, because I could learn a lot of skills in the student union, but it was not the case. The student union did not give me much real growth and help, and many students were not serious and responsible. Often, the work they did not do well would be handed over to me again.This makes me disappointed, because I do not see enthusiasm and responsibility in most people, which is contrary to the image of college students in my imagination.
Before entering college, I thought the academic pressure could be reduced and I could spare the energy to complete more things that interested me. In fact, I needed to spend a lot of time learning professional knowledge, and I couldn't make good use of my spare time to exercise my abilities. Therefore, I often felt anxious and couldn't plan my goals well.
Before going to college, my parents told me that I would have a relaxed college life . I could do anything I wanted. However, after going to college, I realized that I had to complete my homework and return to my dormitory at 10 pm. I also have to participate in various extracurricular activities that I don't like, participate in competitions, which makes me feel nervous.
Before I went to college, I had been looking forward to college life, but later I found that the reality was different from what I had imagined. I used to think that we no longer need to "go to work early and come back late", but in fact, we still need to go to morning reading and evening self-study. Not only that, the running exercises I thought I would never have to face again also appeared in my college life.
Although there are many things that are different from what I expected, I still make a lot of good friends in college, and life is not so boring.
I was expecting college life to be a lot easier than high school, but in my opinion it wasn't exactly. College is a lot easier than high school, but there are a lot of unexpected situations. For example, I thought there would be no night study and early morning reading in college, but in fact there is!
