The story of my life as a college student

Info

Two years down the line now since I graduated from college and ceased from being a student of formal education. Getting out of the school had always been my ambition, and I was over-enjoyed when I found myself graduating towards the end of 2016. You might be wondering why I longed to get out of the college considering this is where people really enjoy life to their fullest; well, let start the story from the year 2012 when I joined the college, and you will understand the reason behind my happiness.

I was among the top students in our school who managed to progress further to university education. Back in high school, I was that playful kid who rarely concentrated on my studies but lucky I was to have a personal tutor at home. My parents were really caring, and they could not allow their son to be dragged by his own actions to commit academic suicide. This private tutor really helped me to pass my final exam which gave me an avenue to join the university. When I reflect my life today, I tend to perceive the actions of my parents to have contributed to the challenges I encountered in the university. Here was a fresh kid school that had not been taught the value of hard work. Actually, he was being spoon-fed in almost all education areas where he found difficulty. The apple of the family's eye was here now being introduced to advance Calculus in the university. In here, there is no private one-on-one coaching which could have been arranged as it was the case back in the high school.

In the first year, we got introduced to something called the basic calculus. Underline the word basically. This was the simplest of all calculus units which we would later undertake in our course. This is according to what they said although this was not the case with me. To me, no calculus was simpler than the other. Instead, my comparison to them was like "more rocket science than the other". This thing was a hard nut to crack for a simple boy like me who had always relied on private tutors. 

I remember one time I had sworn to study calculus and get everything perfectly well only to meet with my friend who joked I appeared mad and my hairs were all forming a parabolic graph. I was like, okay, next time you will consult me how to do it. Unfortunately, that never came to be. I continually depended on them until we finished university. Although I struggled in calculus, I never got to repeat any of the calculus units except two of them courtesy of the friends. When it came to essays, this did not give me much stress since I could outsource essay writing service from various sites such as the cheapessay.net. This platform really helped me improve my writing style, and now I am a graduate with a good GPA. The struggle in college was real, and now you understand the reason behind my happiness!
