This first semester has finally come to an end and I have to say, I will be glad when it is over. The last month or so has been pretty good, but the months before were not fun at all. I think I had a really hard time adjusting to college, even though it’s hard for me to admit. I’m doing much better now however, by making sure I have time for fun, which I wasn’t doing before.
I think I have definitely learned how to better enjoy being in college now. I have continued to use my resources here at OSU by attending office hours constantly, emailing professors consistently, and by visiting my advisors. Aside from the university, I have made the best friends I could have ever imagined. I have included pictures of some of my friends in my post, including Alex and Emily.
My health and wellness is going very well, too. I still workout regularly, and make sure to take breaks when I’m feeling stressed. By having more fun, I have definitely learned how to better take care of myself. In addition, my life plan has really not changed over the semester. I still think I would really love to be a dermatologist. I have figured out that I do not want to get my Ph.D., and that is good because it sticks with my plan to have a family and not be consumed by my job. Family is still the most important thing to me, and I don’t think that will ever change. In my post, I included a picture of my immediate family and my boyfriend, as well as a picture Boston, Massachusetts where I hope to live someday. Overall, college is much better now, I’m excited for the future!
