"  The past two months at The University of Virginia have been two of the best months of my life. I&amp;#039;ve had to do a lot of adjusting to dorm life, organizing my own schedule, and getting back into the schoolwork mindset, but I have had so much fun along the way. What I loved most when I came to UVA was my new sense of independence and freedom that I had never really experienced before. It&amp;#039;s really easy to feel like you can do anything you want whenever you want. The distractions like parties, clubs, sports, events on campus, and living in a community of your closest friends are numerous and can absorb a lot of your time if you aren&amp;#039;t careful. There is a lot of responsibility that comes along with the freedom that comes with leaving for college, but it takes some mistakes and learning to figure out how to manage it all. Over the past two months I have really had to grow up and learn what it means to be an adult. You have to learn how to manage simple tasks (like laundry, keeping track of money, and eating healthy) as well as much more daunting problems like finding an apartment (yes, I&amp;#039;ve already started to look for housing for the next school year!) and balancing academic success with all the social activities that overwhelm the college lifestyle. But that&amp;#039;s the great part about college, you are able to learn and grow from all of your new experiences while having lots of fun and meeting all kinds of new people. It all may seem very overwhelming at first but don&amp;#039;t worry, I was able to adjust to the college lifestyle and you will be able to as well. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
