Read the passage
and choose the correct answer.
College
is a new and different experience for me. I’m away from home, so I have many
things to adjust to. Being on my own, talking with friendly people, and having
Fridays off - these are just some things I like about college.
Living
at college, first of all, gives me a sense of responsibility, of being on my
own. My parents are not around to say, “No, you’re not going out tonight.” Or
“Did you finish your homework?” Everything I do has to be my decision, and that
gives me the responsibility of handling my own life. During the second week I
was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an
account. Before that I looked in the phone book since I had no clue about
any banks around here or where they
were located. Someone told me to go to a bank named Continental Federal
Savings. And I had to make my own decision - whether to have a checking or
saving account and whether or not to get a card. I’m on my own to make my own
decisions.
I
also love to have Fridays off. I wouldn’t be able to deal with five days of
classes in a row. I love to sleep in. One Thursday night, my roommates and I
went to Georgetown. We got in rather early the next morning, and my roommates
and I decided to sleep in, something I couldn’t do in high school.
I do
like things about college - being on my own and having Fridays off, but this
doesn’t mean I don’t think about things at home. Although I like college, I can
still get homesick: New York is a pretty good place, too.
