Dear First Semester,

All I can say is thank you. Thank you so much. (Even though my grades are the lowest they've ever been).

I have effectively spent a whole semester here - how crazy is that? I'm almost certain I just got here. So as my first semester wraps up, I have chosen to think about the previous 15 weeks. In such a short measure of time SO much has happened; new friendships have shaped, old ones have been reinforced, lessons have been educated, experiences have been taken, recollections have been made. Furthermore, even through all the anxiety and the high points and low points, I have cherished each second of it. The trouble of the change that is made when one moves to school fluctuates from individual to individual, however the inclination can't be clarified until you encounter it direct. Fortunately I feel that I transitioned truly well. I truly appreciate the opportunity (and even the duties) that accompanies living all alone. That in itself is such an enormous developing knowledge. I have figured out how to deal with myself. Generally ;) Shortly subsequent to moving in, my flat mate and I marshaled up the certainty to welcome a few young ladies from our floor to watch the Bachelor In Paradise with us. Oh my goodness, best choice of my life! In some cases 5 seconds of crazy strength is all it takes, since we met such an unfathomable individual, to the point that we now invest all our energy with, and I express gratitude toward God for her ordinary. There are some other truly sweet young ladies that live on our floor too. Also, in studio, I have fortified with a quite incredible gathering of individuals. Individuals who rouse me ordinary, keep me spurred, and bring me grins when all I need to do is cry. School is loaded with such a variety of individuals from such a variety of various foundations, particularly for me originating from such a little secondary school. I can sincerely say that even in a matter of months, I have made some long lasting companions. New companionship's have framed.


One of the hardest parts about the move, however, was all that I needed to desert. Such a variety of stunning individuals I would never again be advantaged to see ordinary. The possibility of this unnerved me. I have heard such a variety of awfulness stories of individuals going off to school and overlooking everybody they went to secondary school with. I am fortunate to state, notwithstanding, that despite everything I converse with a large portion of my companions on an exceptionally general premise, some each and every day. We have gone to each other, and hung out over breaks, and each time we're as one it resembles we haven't thought twice. With all the online networking today, it is not hard to stay in contact with the individuals who matter. All it takes is a longing to do as such, and a little piece of exertion. "Genuine fellowship is when two individuals can stroll in various bearings, yet at the same time stay one next to the other." This can't be all the more genuine. It regards have the capacity to escape, since we as a whole need to develop and wind up as people, yet we are certain that those companions who have dependably been around, will dependably be there. Old companionship's have been fortified.

What's more, obviously, we can't discuss school without school! School is only somewhat not quite the same as secondary school. On the other hand a great deal extraordinary. No one lets you know that you must be up, nobody lets you know that you must be in class, you are not indulged, or helped to remember assignments, or advised what to do. The main individual responsible for your training is you, and you can do with it what you wish. My first lesson learned? Because I could be alert at 6 and get the opportunity to class each and every morning by 7:30 in secondary school, does not imply that the pattern with proceed into school. On the off chance that you are not a morning individual, don't take an 8 a.m. Unless it is the main time offered, don't do it. It will do you more mischief than great. What's more, for the individuals who can spring out of a quaint little in and go to class at that corrupt hour, you are honored. Credit to you. I additionally can state I have taken in a considerable measure in my plan classes. I entered this program totally dumbfounded with respect to what I would do. I can even now sincerely say that I do not understand what I'm doing! Be that as it may, I'm dealing with it. I have certainly made considerable progress since the main drawing I created, every venture has become dynamically better. Ideally the pattern proceeds! I could include such a large number of all the more, however I think I'll spare that for another post. Long story short, lessons have been educated.


Perhaps it has just involved months, yet SO much has happened. The previous couple of weeks have been so insane for me, I have practically overlooked all the extraordinary things that I have been honored with this semester. What's more, on the off chance that you imagine that it has passed by quick, it is not backing off. Appreciate each second of it, since one day it will be only a memory. So yippee for an effective first semester! Recollections have been made

So here's to the end of first semester, and here's to many more. Thanks to everyone who made it amazing!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
