Students, of course, strongly neglect this statement, because they haven't experienced life the way that older people have.
Things that trouble students
Lot of students left
their homes and moved in new cities. They either found a small flat or place in
student home and finally, they have their freedom. Sweet freedom, where you
wash the dishes whenever you want (or don't, it's up to you), where if you come
home next day around noon, you won't be grounded, where you do whatever you
want to do. You can meet friends whenever you want and skip lunch, eat junk
food without hearing criticism from your parents. Ouh, it sounds too good to be true, right?
Firstly, shortage of
money. Parents pay for your living (place, bills, food) and that's a lot of money.
As a student you like to party and drinks and food are not free. You know you
can't ask parents for more, but you also really want to go to the party. Secondly, as semester is progressing, your duties also progress. You have to
study harder and spent more time reading than being couch potato or sleeping
all day. If you haven't done anything but partying all semester, you won't have
a nice time when finals start to kick in.
Thirdly, fear of failing. University is hard and you really have to want it to succeed. It's not high school and people expect great things of you. Your entire future depends on this. Your parents expect from you that you finish college and find a job, help out a family. And when you have all that in mind it is not very easy to focus on studying, because you know the significance of passing an exam.
Lastly, as Mark
Twain would say: "The more I learn about people, the more I like my
dog." While you're on university, you'll meet a lot of people. You'll
probably get more disappointed than satisfied and happy. You'll meet more
people you'll want to run away from than to spend time with them. You'll see
what kinds of people exist and that will give you an experience for life.
