About the Daily Titan

About the Daily Titan
Today I read the article "Will you survive CSUF? Time management, goal setting, art of mastery -- necessary skills for college survival" on the Daily Titan online. I think it's really a very useful article and I learned many things from it.
To us new freshman, especially international freshman, we enter the university for the first time, and also in another country. Actually, we may often feel very nervous and sometimes even lose ourselves. We may feel very confused about what to do and how to do it. If we can not make our study and life in control, we may fail in everything and will not survive in the university while maybe we were often performing very well in our home country. So it's very important of us to know more about time management, goal setting, art of mastery -- necessary skills for college survival and other stratages about university life.
TIME MANAGEMENT
As we know, the university life is very busy and full of many different activities. And we will have more spare time for ourselves to use. However, how to make the most use of the time is really important. Sometimes we may find nothing to de and feel so relaxed, but sometimes we may also find there is no enough time for our homework and all kinds of activities. So, the management of our time is really very important. We can make some plans for our study and life. And then make some schedule. I think if we can make reasonable plans and then obey them, we will control our time well.
GOAL SETTING
Having a goal is always important in every period of our lives. And now, the present goal for us is about study. So, we students need to have some goals and then, struggle for them. If we finally achieve our goals, we may feel very happy and confident. And I think that different goals lead us to different life and all right goals will lead us to success.
THE ART OF MASTERY
It's a matter of fact that our age is the most complex age of our lives. We are all young adults and just get not far away from childhood for not a long time. However, at the special time, we need to face many different kinds of difficult things such as making friends, study, finding jobs and so on. We need to make many different relationships with different people like making good friends with someone or falling in love with a boy or a girl. However we may not familiar with skills of how to operate these matters, and sometimes may not do well in them. So that's way many students have problems in making friends and doing with different kind of relationships. So, the art of master is very important and useful to us. And after reading this article, I think I have learned more about it.
At last, I wish all the freshmen to survive successfully in university and have a happy time in the special time of our lives.
