On my way to Berkeley...

So this is the end of senior year and college is around the corner now. I will be at Berkeley this fall majoring in environmental science. Berkeley is the best school for my major and it offers an infinite amount of resources for me to use. The liberating environment and the easy going culture at Cal is just the right fit for me. Not only that but I will be near my older sister, is going to school and living in Oakland, something my mom comforts in because I will be close to family if I need anything.

I have visited Berkeley twice so far and have fallen in love with its beautiful campus, massive libraries, and amazing people. I even met a current senior who shared many of my interests. We requested each other to be roommates! I leave for Berkeley this month to begin summer school with a program called Summer Bridge. Because of Summer Bridge,  I will gain life-long friends and acquire study skills that will prepare me as a student at Berkeley. I am excited, nervous, happy, and sad at the same time. I know I will become homesick for my family and room at home. I am extremely close to my sisters and parents, but although I will miss them so much, I know this is an important step in my life. I will meet many new people that will simply add to my life of friends and family. My four years of college will fly by just as high school did. Pretty soon my college graduation will come, Class of 2015! But for now, I am Class of 2011 and all the work has paid off! I am going to the #1  public university in the country. I can't wait!
