Ok so my dad is a news junkie. He watches it, he reads it, he talks to it, and when he surfs the web, he catches news waves. He was reading todays Times Union and found an article he thought I'd enjoy written by other college students, about tips on being a student.
I read some of the entries each alumni had written, enjoyed some, and frowned at others. The ones I liked included tips about club joining, gym workouts and parking tricks. Then I moved on to the closer and laughed out loud.
This guy from Manhatten College closed his statment by saying that college would be the best years of your life no matter what and that the transition was rather easy. Not word for word, but I just got to the basics. I laughed because...GOD I hope these aren't the best years of my life and it was NOT and easy transition.
Everyone is diffrent. And I dont know about you guys, but when someone writes an article that will be seen by hundreds, they would be smart to write towards a wider audiance rather than those 24/7 happy-go-lucky freshman to be's.
When I write my posts here, I try my best to make sure I hit upon every point, that everyone gets a say, a voice, a tip. I write for the ones having a hard time, and for those who are having a blast. I do not sugar coat it, nor do I cast a black cloud over every event having to do with after high school education.
So I say, to all of you "legitimate writers" please consider everyone. I'd be bad technique to not cover all your bases.
