University.

According to Wikipedia,
The original Latin word "universitas" refers in general to "a number of persons associated into one body, a society, company, community, guild, corporation, etc." At the time of the emergence of urban town life and medieval guilds, specialised "associations of students and teachers with collective legal rights usually guaranteed by charters issued by princes, prelates, or the towns in which they were located" came to be denominated by this general term. Like other guilds, they were self-regulating and determined the qualifications of their members. The original Latin word referred to degree-granting institutions of learning in Western Europe, where this form of legal organisation was prevalent, and from where the institution spread around the world. For non-related educational institutions of antiquity which did not stand in the tradition of the university and to which the term is only loosely and retrospectively applied, see ancient higher-learning institutions.

According to yours truly,
University is the point in life where you have to take it seriously, no more fooling around because this right here is the point in life where you decide what you want out of it. The most important thing is our future and is based on this so little years. If we succeed, we will always be successful. If we fail, it'll only be a pain for us. Even so, I also think that University is a place to rediscover yourself, to find that person you truly are or to even change to a better person you already are. Exactly a month has passed since the first day of my course and I've changed so much compared to who I was back in high school. Looks, mindset, attitude, you name it. I also realized that we have to sacrifice a lot to go through these few years. Money, sweat, time and even some of the people you've grown to know in the past but I'm happy now, to be who and what I am and to meet new people, to experience a totally new beginning.

Everyday is always a beginning, don't ever, ever, forget that.

Signing off,
