From the outside looking into the college campus world, the majority of the people would see that there is nothing wrong and that college life is great. When the sun goes down and behind the scenes a student's perspective and the choices students have to make, it really is not. In college you have a lot of responsibility and with that u should be cautioned. No longer is mommy and daddy there to assist you, it turn into the game of life and you roll the dice and take the consequences that come with your actions. Choices, decisions that you are going to have to make are going to be the major part of your life. You are going to have to make choices that you have never had to make before. In some cases it may be going to class and in others it may be the usual alcohol, sex, and/or drugs. Other choices may be the people u hang around with. Even though the majority of students will not admit it, the people they involve themselves in influence them. In some cases the odds are against you and in others the odds are in your favor, you have to have the will to succeed and if you do not you will fall short in the long run.

The majority of college students will drink or smoke before their college career expires. The choices you make will affect your performance in the classroom. For example, if you decide to go party and you have an 8:00 am class in the morning, the first thing in this situation you are going to have to decide is if you are going to class. The next logical thing would be if you are going to involve yourself in stimulants such as alcohol or green trees(marijuana). If you did decide to get involved in the stimulants, they are going to have a affect if you were to decide to go to class. Added to that problem, if you had a friends house to attend after the club or party, the late night exercise is also going to affect your getting up to get too class and your performance in class.

Okay, that was the part most of you were looking forward too, but that is just one of the many decisions you are going to have to make. Others may include who you would live with and where you were going to live. Another decision many students have to make is transportation. There are many more to name, but then the biggest and most important of all the choices will have to b studying. When do you and how do you study for whatever it is you have to study for. In all these cases your responsibility and choice or decision making skills will play an important part. You and only you (maybe some very good friends) are going to have to propel yourself to do the right thing and make the right choices. With some decisions or choices peer pressure or influence plays a part. Never make a decision or choice if you feel that is not the choice or decision you want to make. Do not get me wrong, college life is very exciting and fun, but make the best part of it and do the right things when ever you can. Trust me it will eventually pay off in the long run, so stick in there and see what happens.
