College wasn't just a new start for me; it was a revolution. I went to my HS reunion and many, many people who'd known me well did not recognize me. I look different, I feel different, and I act different -- and in every case, the change was for the better. Everyone from my HS went to college, mostly out of state, so there would have been a fresh start almost no matter where I went, but the fact that the college I chose was a perfect fit for me made all the difference. It was NOTHING like high school. Within a couple of months, that college had worked miracles in terms of my self-confidence, happiness, and sociability.
