The Collage of Readiness!

I chose college readiness because it hits home with me. I dont believe I was ready for college but at the same time I think I was. Being ready for college revolves around everything in you life, you family, religion, friends, media and everything else. All of the pictures above show the rollercoster I am riding getting into college, staying in college, and graduating college to follow my dream. And if a picture really does say a thousand words and tell a thousand stories I believe I just wrote a book.

When high-school students got together and put on paper what they thought was the biggest influence in their college readiness there was some interesting things but most importantly there were a lot of common things. Most everyone thought school and their parents to be their biggest influence and there were other common factors also like religion, work and media. And thinking back all of these factors were big influences in my life as well, but mostly my family. My injury project will be focused around my college readiness and my family and how they have lead me here today.

Collage Readiness

Sorry this post is posted so late when I got home last night all I wanted to do was sleep. and this ties into my collage readiness, was I prepared for collage? Am I ready for collage now that im already a semester in? The answer to these questions are... even if your not ready you have to be you dont have a choice. and thats what i feel like sometimes like i dont have a choice other than to work and go to school. But a thousand other questions run through my mind as I think this, What happens if I fail a class? what if i am working to much? is my dad going to be proud of me? and as i go through this semester I am  going to try and answer these questions...
