Blog Post 2

     
          When asked "Why College" many reasons come to mind but only a few really stick out, but only three pertain to myself. College is the only way to have a career, it is a chance to build lasting bonds, and college makes one be proud of oneself.
           First, College seems like the only way to succeed in life and without it life can become extremely difficult. Every career field worth more than minimum wage requires a college diploma so without it a degree it would be impossible to ever have money.
          Secondly, college is an opportunity to meet people and build bonds that will last for a lifetime. In high school everyone makes friends and best friends but usually those bonds break when you move off to different colleges. It is very seldom that you will find a person that is closer to all their high school friends better than their college friends. In high school people are adolescent and in college people become adult and therefore must have adult relationships and bonds.
         Finally, going to college is something that can make people be proud of themselves. Most people end up not going to college or even still dropping out. It is when we complete the college walk of life that it is realized that no longer must you go to class everyday and study, but now your life changes and now you must wake up every day and work a job to support a family. It is then that it is realized that now you have worked every day since kindergarten to get to where you are now and then you sigh a sigh of relief and pat yourself on the back.
          So "Why College"? In conclusion, It is that part of life to get the education so that a career will be possible, a time to build best friends that will help in the chosen career path, and a chance to get to where every day we all dream for, and that is to have the career that is very so earnestly desired.
