Re: College Decisions

college desision erg . I had some trouble choosing. I wanted to do sports in college, so i tried to find a college that had cross-country or gymnastics or softball. But then it just wasnt about the sports, i had trouble getting accepted to all these schools with my ACT score and grades. I worried alot about that. During high school i admit, i tired but yet i blew it off and could have done better. So, the schools i applied to were Southern Illinios University, Harper college (community right near my house), and Lincoln college (hickville,IL about 3 hours south of my city). SIU didnt work for me, and i couldnt live at home. So i applied for a scholorship for cross-country at Lincoln college and i got recriuted and i felt good not only about how im stoked about running there, but the school is right for me because its a two year and a private school that has a 16 student to classroom. So that means, since im not too great at school, when i go there ill get more attention and one on one communication with the teacher rather than going to a unviersity that has lecture halls of 300 students or so. And since its a two year college, i can then graduate and go to a university to persue my dream and what not.

Although my dream was to go to nebraska or a big university witha ncaa football team and like 50 bazillion students, when i think about it, i have made the right choice for the better or me.
