The First Week
It’s the weekend so I know, I’m a little late on this blog. But, I thought I’d tell you about my very first week of college.
Well, on Monday morning I woke up about two hours earlier than I was planning to as result of being so anxious. At first, I wasn’t very tired… I actually felt wide awake… but, that definitely went away not long after I got to school. Luckily, my classes weren’t very long, since it was the first day and all…. both of them let out early. (: Speaking of those classes, they were Music In Life aka music appreciation and Basic News Reporting. The professors seemed pretty exciting. More animated rather than boring. The classes seem pretty fun actually. I really don’t mind learning about music, the parts of music, and where it originally came from. Rather opposite from how others may feel. I think I may have even made a new friend in that class. I sit by her, so she’s at least a potential friend. My classes start a little later on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which I don’t mind because they allow me to sleep in…. even though, I kind of like getting done with my classes earlier in the day. These classes are College Math and Photography. My math professor is actually really funny and goofy in the way he talks and acts. He’s a mix between my Jr. High Algebra teacher and Jr. High English teach (my favorite teacher EVER.) My photography class is two hours long, which is about 30 minutes longer than my other three classes. But, if I had to choose one class to be longer, it would be photography… just because I really enjoy it. I’m actually really excited to learn how to use my 35mm properly and how to develop film in an actual darkroom. Fancy!
Now, on to the non-class related things about college. It is so much different that High School. I say this because, in college, it’s totally acceptable to just keep to yourself and do your own thing. That’s what most people are doing anyways. I’ve always been this way… I mean, of course, I socialized quite a bit in high school… but I don’t really mind just being by myself and hardly talking to anyone at Rose. Alone time is nice… and it helps to get things done faster. Although, I’m sure I’ll make friends and not be by myself ALL the time… I’m really okay with being alone for right now.
I like college. It makes me feel like an adult.
