This semester at OSU flew by so fast. Well, it’s not quite over…I still have all my finals, ahhh! Before coming here I was worried that it would be hard to make friends. However, I was really lucky in my hall at Baker. All the girls living on my hall quickly bonded and now we are really close. Something that I’ve found more challenging is staying involved. I get overwhelmed quickly by my academics and then end up staying in my room. This next semester I have my work cut out for me: get and stay involved in some clubs! I really enjoyed my first semester of classes. The one thing I struggled with the most was procrastinating my writing assignments, which causes a lot of stress… but I still think I will come out of this semester successfully. We will just have to wait and see until grades are posted after finals. I really enjoy being a part of the Humanities Scholars. I got to see Chicago and it was amazing, I am so excited to travel more. I like doing Humanities events but I need to remember to check the calendar more often (and to not wait until the last minute to record my points!) I am ready for winter break to have some relaxation, but I cannot wait to start some of my second semester classes!
