The process of having to find a college or a university to attend is a huge challenge, and a stressful process. Even though I don’t have to worry about getting into a University for another four more years, I stress of the thought every day. Will I have a high enough GPA? What about my SAT scores? Do my parents even have money saved away for me and tuition? What do I want to do with my life? Thoughts like these run through my mind and stress me out all the time it seems, but I’m learning how to take things one step at a time. The first step to insure I have a good future for myself is making sure I have goals set and locked, once I know what I want to do with my future it helps me plan ahead better, but saying this is easier said then done. Because it seems I have different idea of what I want to do every year, but one thing I’m sure of is that any career I choose, good grades are mandatory, so I can get into a good university, and be successful. Another thing I am doing to prepare for my future, is making sure that I have a good understanding about the many universities I want to enroll into and there requirements. A few schools I am looking at, and would be lucky to attend are California State University of Long Beach, Berkeley University, and University of Southern California, or more commonly known as USC. All these universities have something special about them, and there good qualities and bad ones. I’m glad that I am getting ahead start on my life and I still have plenty of time to stress out.

When I grow up, I’m still not too sure of what I want to do when I grow up. I’m not to sure of what this world has in store for me yet, all I can say is that I want to make a difference in the world and change it for the better. ...

...a student at UCSULB, it is not my first choice.

I like Berkley mainly because it’s close to home, for an easy commute, I also like how nice the Wurster Hall campus is set up, another thing that really stood out about the school was all its special programs they have set up for the environment, which proved just how dedicated the students and school really are about making the change. Even if I don’t solve global warming or any of the major dilemmas we have, I will be okay knowing that I worked hard and learned something from the experience, but if I plan on going to this school and completing my goals, I have to make sure I stay smart all through out high school, and don’t let my laziness stop me. In conclusion, I think I’ve made it clear that the school I hope to attend one day is Berkley University, where I will try to peruse a degree in environmental studies.
