I have been trying to find new hobbies to try out because I feel as though I have been stuck in a rut. I have been trying painting, which is actually really fun but does take up some time and effort. I have also been looking into trying sewing- I got a jean jacket to...
Summer Time Events
Summer is here and in full swing! I have two classes this summer so that I will be able to get a head start on some of the pre-requisites for a few required classes. Summer classes are nice because they aren't too crowded but they sure are busy and fast paced! They...
Senioritis Lingers
As the semester draws to a close, I am very proud that despite how slow going it has felt, I'm almost done. A change in major has caused me to be a second year junior which was disappointing initially, but I feel a lot better doing something more closely related to my...

Today is the first day of the new semester. I am finally a senior! I'm extremely excited to be that much closer to finishing school. Today went by pretty slowly; I went in to my first class and went over the syllabus and was followed by a 3 hour break until my next...
