Weekend Excitement!

I definitely am into routine now with my weekly schedule with classes and homework. Sometimes the weeks drag and seem very uneventful. The ost exciting part to look forward to is definitely to the upcoming adventures and craziness of the next weekend! This weekend I am very excited because once I step out of my last class at 1:50, I will snag my bags and jump into a car with my friends for a thrilling road trip! Four of my friends and myself are heading to Bloomington from Friday night until Sunday afternoon. I am really pumped up because I have not been down to IU yet this year and always end up making some of the greatest memories while down there. It definitely is a different excitement to visit this time though due to the fact that some of my very best friends are now freshman attending IU. Tomorow night I believe I am goingout to dinner with some of my good friends from home and then we will be all hanging ou somewhere catching up! Can't wait to see my best friend and stay with her this wekend it is going to be just like old times! I sure do love the weekends!

Something New

Class, studying, reading, writing, trying my best not to procrastinate; all of which takes up so much more time in college than I could have ever dreamed of! Yes I am here to learn and all that, but Ball State has so many other opportunities to offer here on campus. The problem is for me I haven't really gotten all that involved yet! The rec center is absolutely amazing as I try to workout there as much as possible. Playing sports such as basketball or really anything with a ball you can think of takes place in the which is tons of fun. I spend alot of time just hanging out with my friends doing a whole lot of nothing which so far has been entertaining and fun, but i want something new. I am startin to get in the same old routine with the same people everyday which isn't a bad thing, but college is a chance to meet alot of various types of new people! I am thinking i want to find some goup, club, or organization that has fun people ike me in it and I would like to join it. Why not take a chance and do something new? That is the whole point of growing up and changing!

Small Fish In a Big Sea

It has been a fun week, but I surely am exhausted! I have Chemistry Labs every Wednesday for three hours and they put such a damper onto my week. I have began to really start missing my parents and home life very much. It is kind of like the reality that this is my new home has finally sunk in! I am pondering the idea of heading back home tomorow hoping that it is really refreshing and helps me have a good strong week next week. Its hard because I am use to having loving people around me all the time, and now it is kind of like I am isolated having to meet all different kinds of people. I have so many friends back home and I'm the crazy funny girl everyone knows so It is really difficult to becoming such a small fish in a massive sea. Being who I am is something I haven't changed and I know I won't because I love the girl I have become! I know that college is definitely going to be molding me more and I can't wait to see how it all goes.

On the right course

It's crazy sometimes how there is so much to do here at Ball State. Really if you're bored its completely your choice by not putting effort into doing something. That's what is difficult now that I am here off on my own with all this freedom. I'm use to having my mom and dad telling me what to and when to do it. NOw everything is up to me. I choose when to hang with friends and where, and i choose when i want to study and work on assignments. It is definitely hard when you want to just go have fun all the time, but getting school work done first is my main priortiy being here! Definitely has been an adventure making my own decisions, but I think I am off to a good start for success!

2 Weeks In the Books

It still is hard to believe that I am a freshman in college let alone the first two weeks have already passed! I absolutely adore Ball State and have been having the time of my life here! Seriouly it is like this whole new world where I have all the freedom in the world (thich hopefully turns out for the best). I love getting to go to a class then chill for a while and that the days don't seem to drag on as highschool days did. My teachers all are really great and interesting, and classes seemed to kick off to a great start! Yes I sure am loving college, but I can't for classes to be over today so my brother and I can drive back to Mishawaka! Can't wait to see my parents, my dog, and all my best friends at home! It's going to be a great weekend! Here come the Irish!!!
