Going into this school year, I was very nervous. This was my first year as a part time college student. Many of my classmates didn't even know I was still in high school. On the first day, I stood outside of a dark classroom with a few other students. Confused, we all made sure we were all supposed to be in English 100. We went in the room and sat down, assuming our professor was just a few minutes late. As time went on, a couple of us left. I checked my phone again and saw that my classroom had changed. "Wow, what a great way to start the year" I thought. I was too nervous to walk into the classroom an hour late, so I just decided to leave and email my professor and explain the situation. Thankfully, my professor is very cool and was very understanding.
Two days later, it was time to go back. I was really nervous and embarrassed that I went to the wrong classroom. Looking back, it wasn't really a big deal but I always worry about everything for some reason. Once I walked into what seemed to be the correct class, I noticed a lot of other kids in my class, I already knew. Lots of them go to high school with me and are also dual enrolled. During this time, I was also applying to colleges to go to in Fall 2018. I hope my participation as a dual enrolled student helped me with my chances of getting into schools. So far I have been accepted to Millersville University, Kutztown University, and Penn State Altoona. This semester has been very difficult, juggling high school and college at the same time. I also have a job. I was very stressed, but I am still glad for this experience I had. I like to challenge myself and I think this taught me how to manage my time better. I found it very difficult at times but then I started doing my homework on my breaks at work. I really enjoyed my class at Delaware County Community College, and I would recommend this class and my professor to anyone.
