“A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown.” -Denis Waitley


      Since coming to college there have been many things that I have faced that pushed me out of my comfort zone. Like I am a very outgoing person but in the beginning of getting to know someone I am very shy and quiet to myself. I usually liked to have few friends and be to myself and do my own thing. As being here I had to try and change my ways be this outgoing person I am. I can say I have made more friends here then from living in Shelton for seven years. But I can say it was easy to come out of my comfort zone on campus everyone is very friendly and especially freshman  are on the same boat as me that everyone on campus is new to them they will have to expand their comfort zone to making some friends and meeting new people. Over this weekend for some reason my friends all went home I was literally the only one left on campus. My comfort zone has gone that I am an independent person but for some reason I hate going to eat at Connecticut hall by myself. But with none of my friends here I had to try and find someone to either come with me which I couldn't or just go by myself. So I had to go by myself I felt very weird and came to find out as I got there , there wasn't many people in Conn Hall but I did see faces I did recognize . I wanted to go back to the old shy me but if I didn't want to sit alone I couldn't do that. So I put on my big girl panties and be myself and go up to them and talk, I can say college makes you face a lot of things that make you uncomfortable but if it feels rights go with your gut. If I stayed to my comfort zone as being shy I would be with the few friends I had in high school compared to the variety I have here in college.
