what is and what ain’t
Sometimes I wonder if my heart is in Xavier, but it is growing on me. To be honest, Xavier was not my first choice of college to attend, but I am here. My first choice was actually Howard University. This is the college that I truly wanted to go to. My father told me whatever college I receive a full scholarship from is the college I can go to. I actually received a full scholarship from both Xavier and Howard. But, my dad wanted me to go to Xavier because it was close. Don’t get me wrong I appreciate Xavier and I like it, I just wish I was able to go to the college that I first picked. I asked my mom the other day why did they make me go somewhere that I did not want to go. She couldn’t give me an answer, shouldn’t I have a choice? I wanted to experience the full college experience like the other million people in the country. I wanted to be out of town, living in a dorm, and being independent. But, I am unable to do that when I am living at home. Like I said, I am not saying Xavier isn’t a good college and I hate it, but what I am saying is I just wish I was able to choose what I think was best for me. I guess I just have to stick it out in order to know what is best for me.
