Over the past year I had to go thru a few changes in my life from how I spend my days to friends that I lost due to tragedy. These changes were tough on me but I had to put it in the back of mind due to the fact that my most difficult change was coming way to El Dorado to go school at
Butler CC.
This transaction was tough on my parents also they are so used of having me around to help them and do things for them. Coming all the way out here to Butler was hard on me due to the fact that I’m at a place that I never been too and don’t have no relatives in the state of Kansas. The reason that this change was necessary is that I’m an adult and my parents depend on me to help them on everyday activities and improvements to the house. It’s also necessary that I go out of my usual routine, and meet and get to know new people out side of the usual places I go to. The difference from High school to college that I noticed was that motivation must come from us. Teachers are not going to baby student’s to get their work done. The other difference’s would be the way the schedule set that everyone must fallow in high school, and in college have their own time and upon the professor different class rooms that suite their curriculum. My major change that I had to go thru was living on campus and not at home with all the other distractions that I go thru. Before coming to Butler I was rarely the person to initiate change unless it’s for the best for everyone else. When I do initiate change every one is reluctant to join me until I convince them on why it is important to change activities. While being at Butler I only had to go thru some emotional reactions due to the fact that every one that I spend everyday with and friends with I knew them since we were in elementary school and also this is the first time I ever been a way from my young brother that is Handicapped, we always watched out for each other now that I’m up in El Dorado its hard on me not knowing how he is doing. The changed that caused me the most anxiety would be coming out here leaving all my love ones and very close friends back in
Orlando.
Attitudes that would hinder or stop change would be not trying to improve your everyday activities, and everyday life, and not taking risks.
