This is a fresh start to a new semester. This past semester has changed me drastically as a person for the better. I have made a lot of new friends, and I don't hang out with the same friends as I did back then, but I think it was for the better. I'm trying to live healthy and being more physically active. I plan to get a job to earn a little money.
Switching roommates has been the biggest impact on my life the first semester. My roommate, Lauren, is now my best friend. We go to the gym, library, coffee shop, baker, everywhere together. We can laugh and share things about our lives. I now watch hockey with her and even tried field hockey once. We've become close in the past few months. Yesterday she tells me I better be coming back next semester or I will ruin her house plans. I just laughed at that one.
I was a striaight A student in high school, but Juniata College has challenged me. I almost didn't come back to school this semster I thought about cosmetology, even the military. But in the end, I guess my time here will pay off.
Over break I was able to reconnect with my family. We now have a new puppy, three dogs total. I found out that I do really well with animals. I even thought about changing my POE to veternary. But I still remain on the sides with Engineering.
I think this semster will be a lot better for me. I've realized I'm a more positive person now and I try not to let others bring me down, as I see the brighter side of things. My classes are layed out a lot better. And my physics professor is actually pretty cool, I didn't hit it off so well with the last one. All in all I guess I'm happy that I did come back this semsester. I'm most excited for Calc II this semester, as I came eager to learn. I vow not to let the party side of things get to me. I'm taking a serious semester since I'm in it for the long run.
Welcome back to another round of CWS, Megan. I am glad that you decided to return to Juniata and that you have a better roommate situation. I know from personal experience that a good roommate can make all the difference!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds as if you have a great perspective on things this semester--focusing on the positive and not letting others weigh you down. This is a good mindset to move forward with! Best wishes with your Calculus II class. Math and I were never the best of friends and I always admire people who are able to tackle it with ease.
