Going to college is an exciting thing for me, because I have been studying so hard to realize this dream. Before I went to the campus, I had good imagination about the college life. But the first year in the college makes me recognize the campus life.

上大学对于我来说是一件很兴奋的事情，因为我是如此的努力学习来实现这个理想。在我去到大学校园前，我对大学生活有着美好的想象。但是在大学的第一年让我从新认识了校园生活。

The first year in college, I spend a lot of time in studying. Before I went to college, I thought the college life would be very easy and I just could do whatever I want. But I did not expect that I still needed to pay so much attention on study. Everybody around me went to the library and I would be very guilty if I played. So college life was not that easy.

在大学的第一年，我花了很多时间在学习方面。在我上大学前，我以为大学生活会很轻松，我能为所欲为。但是我没有预料到我仍然需要花那么多时间来学习。在我身边的每个人都去去图书馆，如果我玩耍的话，很有罪恶感。所以大学生活并没有那么轻松。

When I lived far away from my home, I was so free, I enjoyed the freedom so much. My parents always kept their eyes on me, so I couldn’t be myself when I lived with them. Living in the dormitory, I could stay up and join the activities at night. It is the young guy’s right.

当我住得离家远，我很自由，我很享受这样的自由。我的父母总是盯着我，和他住在一起，我无法做真正的自己。住在宿舍里，我能熬夜，在夜间出去活动。这是年轻人的权利。

Though the first year in college isn’t that easy for me, I still enjoy the campus life.

虽然在大学的第一年对我来说不轻松，但是我很喜欢大学校园的生活。
