New to the Mecca

Coming into an HBCU as a freshman, I didn't know what to expect. I knew I wanted to see what the environment was like, the culture and of course, the people. My first week was pretty interesting. When i first arrived I wasn't the most social person, I'd just rather get used to everything first and see what I was dealing with before I "budged in", but hanging with freshmen wasn't the best way to do that, being that they were in the same state of mind as I. I did enjoy my freshman week, the parties not so much because they were so much different than the parties in NYC, but I guess I'll get used to it. I had no clue what "Freshman Seminar would be about and when I first got to class, I kinda figured it out. The lectures we we're going to learn about I've never really heard of before, so I knew this would be a great opportunity to learn more about my culture and educate myself further. I think Freshman Seminar will definately help broaden my mind and allow me to explore areas of myself and the world I have never explored before.
