beyond the green

Ok, so I’m new at this whole blogging thing. Not sure how or what to do. But I’m just gonna go, and hope its an exciting ride!

This dilemma has been part of my slowness in posting, but to be honest, I also noticed the rush of moving-in posts, and thought a later one could give a perspective.

See, this is what I learn in college. How to say I’m not procrastinating in bigger and more convincing words.

Probably. Then again, I do like to stay busy. I seem to be a little late coming out of the starting gate with my first blog post of the year, but I hope you’ll forgive me. So far school is going great! I remember coming here as a freshman last year and feeling somewhat intimidated and lost. This year, however, moving into the mods and meeting up with old friends has made the beginning of the semester completely different.

This semester I only have one education class and THREE English classes. This means a LOT of reading every night and soon lots of writing. But I guess that’s what happens when you’re an English major!

Moving back on campus was fun, exciting, and nerve racking all at the same time. I really didn’t know what to expect being that I have not seen anyone over the summer, and did not know what the people on my hall would be like. However due to many, many hall meetings I got know a bit about each person on my hall–that helped ease a lot of my nervousness. Being back on campus has been fun because I have reunited with my old buddies and met some new ones already.
