MY UNIVERSITY EXPERIENCE

I joined university with a lot of expectations, probably because of the stories told. Not everything turned out as I expected but so far I have had an awesome experience, my interaction with other students has opened my mind greatly.I've learnt to relate well with other people and to accommodate everyone,because we're all different. What stood out for me,is being an independent person,being responsible for my own actions.Campus has a lot of peer pressure and it takes a lot of self control to not go with the wave.
