The community college was a hard
00:00:01
transition for me because when I was
00:00:02
homeschooling and then even at the
00:00:04
public school, they didn't really
00:00:06
approach controversial topics. But once
00:00:09
you go into community [clears throat]
00:00:11
college, you are maybe more in-depth
00:00:14
covering evolution. Um whereas then I'm
00:00:17
feeling kind of this religious pull
00:00:19
because I had done religious curriculum,
00:00:21
religious schooling primarily.
00:00:24
Feeling am I denying my faith or am I
00:00:28
doing something wrong? Um because
00:00:30
there's also
00:00:32
this comparison to public school as
00:00:34
being
00:00:35
an exposure to sin, an exposure to the
00:00:38
world. So I really felt like maybe this
00:00:40
is my test, too. Like maybe this is my
00:00:43
exposure to
00:00:45
That's I I think I had a lot more of a
00:00:46
culture shock and just realizing like a
00:00:49
lot of these things are actually normal
00:00:50
and it's okay to
00:00:52
have different opinions.
