Hi, welcome to our college. You will spend at least four years here. College days will be the golden years of your life. There are many opportunities for you to explore the unknown and you can experience a lot. You can make lifelong friends; you can enjoy various kinds of ac tivities; you can develop your personal interests; and you will meet some outstanding Scholars Keep a good balance and lay a solid foundation. There are many doors to your dreams. You decide how many you can open.
First time There’s a proverb that says: “All great journeys start with a dream.” Today it seems there are so many people who just exist they have no goals, no desires, no aspirations, or no dreams. Do you have a dream? Have you taken the first step of your journey? If not, I challenge you to make today your turing point and defining moment in your life. There are so many who have had dreams and gone on to live them. A great artist once said: “The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.” If you allow the brilliance and genius within you to spring forth your life will take on new meaning and impact —for yourself and for your world. What is your dream? Identify it and make it real Make today your turning point in defining your life.
TGIF (Thank God it’s Friday)! What’s your spare time gig? What’s your spare time gig? clubs and societies? Sports ? Basketball ? Come on, guys! We are the best of CUBA! (I love this game!) Prefer to stay in the dorm listening to music ? What’s that? Michael Learns to Rock or Backstreet Boys? party time again. Meet people and make new friends. Oh? You’d rather just hang out? You won’t be bored anyhow .
How do you understand the idea of living on your own? You may have felt very much 1.on
your own when you left home to enter college. A free bird out of its cage , now, eh? Is it really so? Think again. Are you able to pay the tuition by yourself? Can you really take care of all your
daily needs? “I sure can. It’s a snap,” some might say. “Just find a part-time job, and everything
will be OK.” Others may find traditional college life quite safe and convenient. Are you ready to take the risk?
What are your key sources of information? Do you get most of your information by talking to other people? People could already do that in the Stone Age. When the printing press was invented several hundred years ago, written sources became important to anyone who could read. Now we read magazines and newspapers as much as we read books. But we also get a lot of information from electronic sources. Radio is not yet 100 years old, television has only been popular for about 50 years, and the . Internet
is younger than all the students in this class. Yet these are some of our favorites. What you’re your favorites ? How many different sources of information do you use in a typical day?
Everyone can do volunteer work. In fact, volunteers don’t get paid, but the rewards from their deeds are priceless and highly appreciated. One single volunteer is like a candle in the night for those who are in darkness. Certainly, as an individual we can’t do everything on our own but we should try to do whatever we can. Imagine the power of thousands of “candles”, and the great difference it will make in peopl e’s lives. As for those who bring light into the lives of others, surely someday they too may be in need of that same light they offered. Be a volunteer and feel the light.。
