COLLEGE IS A CHOICE

My last year at Buffalo State College was amazing. Academically, it was the most stressful year. I have a bad habit of selecting challenging gen ed classes while taking my most difficult major class. However, I don't regret any of the sleepless nights spent in the library and missing out on a few parties. Speaking of which, socially, this year was the best. My bond with my friends grew stronger, I went away for spring break to Panama City Beach, Fl and I actually had a visitor, my bff.
One thing I kept in mind throughout the year was that I am not Kanye West. Therefore, I can not be a drop out and think for certain I will be successful. College Dropout is one of my favorite albums of all time. My favorite song is Never Let Me Down by Kanye West feat. Jay-Z & J. Ivy. I know the entire song but the lyrics that always stand out to me are:

We are all here for a reason on a particular path
You don't need a curriculum to know that you are part of the math

These lyrics, knowing I am not Kanye and the support of family and friends really helped me get through this semester. I'm uncertain what's next for me but I'm not afraid to begin to take the steps in any direction. I couldnt't be more pleased with my choice to attend Buffalo State College and I'm even more excited to attend the Fashion Institute of Technology in the fall.
