@thiswaydown College is a wonderful experience. You can meet a lot of new people. My main tip is to be grounded as you will be on your own. No more spoon feeding with classes and mommy/daddy are gone. College isn't for everyone. I have seen people drop out recently, and it's the first semester! If your really want to further your education - go for it!
P.S. COMMUNITY COLLEGE SAVES MONEY!!!!
