The graduation time

The end of 2007 all my high school colleagues were very sad, because it was time to move foward…Was this a sad time? Or it was a time to enjoy a lot?

 

            People behavior changed from people to people, some of my colleagues were scared of their future without the school and others were much excited that couldn’t even thing about the dimension of that moment, and could only thing about the new changes that were coming.

 

            I was also sad, because the other step would be one by one, and everybody that were studying with me for a long time, from that moment would be on their own. But I include me in the ones that were excited, and for me the happiest moment was about to come, I would complete my so expected majority, for me it would be my scream for freedom.

 

            This period is important and unforgettable in everybody lives, because is the first big change in a teenagers life, no matter where you live, in the USA the students make their SAT, in England, Where would you prefer to go Cambridge or Oxford ? In Brazil we have the tests that are called “vestibular”, nobody can forget about it.

I was 17, and for me this was the most stressed  time, it was the time when people expect from you more than you could really show and when you can feel frustrated or realized from what you accomplished or didn’t.

 

            I was in doubt of two universities of engineering, both of them are well qualified, but my sister already studies in one and this fact was decisive in my choice. Because I knew that studying in the same university as my sister I won’t explore and make new friend I would only stay with her and her friends. But even thinking about it, I was still in doubt, because maybe it could be cool to stay with your sister as my whole life before. So in the beginning of the courses I’ve frequented both of them, to make my choice with no regretting later.

 

In the end I decided to study in the university which my sister does not study, and I am sure I made the correct choice. I feel very happy and independent.
