Week Eleven Blog Prompt

I want you to go back to Chapter One in Hjortshoj's The Transition to College Writing and reflect on the differences between High School and College.  I would like you to elaborate on TWO of the five "basic, categorical differences" (on pp 10-12) that he highlights by summarizing his ideas as well as adding your own experiences and then add two original differences that he didn't mention but you have experienced as you have transitioned to college.  Be sure to elaborate on these two original ideas.  (So you should have a total of four points of difference that you share with your reader.) In addition, explain why we create these myths or illusions (essentially lying to ourselves) about college and why this kind of lying is not helpful. 
Your audience is a high school senior. You should write in epistolary format (like a letter).
