I have felt more like an adult and mature because I have gotten to see and have many experiences from students from around the world. These experiences have given me a sense of more maturity and have felt more comfortable to talk with relatives about more personal issues. My relatives went to college and have been through some of the same things I am going through. Being able to talk to them about my college experience so far was something that felt great and I am happy that I did. I talked to them more about like what they experienced during their freshmen year, roommate conflicts, fraternity things, academics beyond freshmen year, the tests they took, bad professors, good professors, and the social aspect of college.
For Thanksgiving did you talk to any of your relatives about some of the same things that I did?
