I wish I hadn't been afraid to take a rigorous work load. I currently work 35 hours a week and take 18 credit hours and even though I am busy, it makes me feel better and more driven. I also wish that I had participated in several of the social events during the first week becasue I do now and it is tons of fun!

I wish I would have known about the cost of tuition.

I wish I would have know that the drive between school and my hometown would be so long. I also wish that I would have known that I should have learned better study habits.
