Why Share My Experiences

I think that it's interesting to share my experiences of trying to successfully make it through college. Using this blog, I am able to share my stories of things I like and how college has been such a big change for me- especially going to a college away from home and trying to live independently. Most people would probably think that college has a lot more freedom than high school. For me, as a result of the disabilities I have- I disagree.
It seems crazy for me to have to start all over as a "new" college student, but that's what happened when I decided to transfer from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois to UIS here in Springfield, Illinois. It has been a major milestone in my life- one my parents were a bit nervous about at first- probably because of the challenges me disability hands me each day.
