My First Semester

Wow what a semester it’s been! I can’t believe the last day of classes is tomorrow, I feel like I just moved in yesterday. Even though this semester went by quickly, a lot happened during this semester. I got myself involved in extracurriculars that I’m really excited about, like 4 Paws for Ability and Off the Lake Productions. Having extra curriculars has really helped my adjustment, since I’ve always been super involved,so being busy is somewhat comforting for me. I think I realized that I need to schedule things for myself to do to make sure I’m budgeting my time. For example, I know I can’t work during rehearsal, so I have to make sure I leave enough time to study before. My classes have been very interesting, and I’m super excited to start my next semester of classes! My favorite class of this semester was definitely animal handling. It gave me a really great introduction to the animal industry, and we got to do a ton of hands on work with livestock animals. I’m definitely nervous about my finals later this week, but I’m hoping that if I put enough work in they’ll turn out alright. Being a part of arts scholars has given me many of my friends, and I’m really enjoying all of the activities we do together. I’ve learned a lot this semester, whether it be about chemistry or about my own study habits, and I can’t wait to see what the next semester holds for me!
