Almost there...!

It is now, what? The last two weeks of school? I have next week and the week after is finals! It is amazing to think I have now been in a year of college! Time really passes by fast! A year ago I was a high school senior ready to graduate! And now I am in college and working on getting my future in line! I am glad I don't have to use a map to navigate around campus anymore, though! That was fun when I first got here, ha ha. But, last two weeks. Wow! I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do this summer. After high school, it's all different, it seems.

I think I will be staying with some friends I made at UCA and live in a new city for the summer and get a job and just have time to spend with my new lovely friends. I think some activities will be me learning to drive, getting my first job, camping with friends, crazy conversations, late night fun, movie marathons(at least I think so), tour of the town, complaining about the heat, and other things.

I hinted about the possibility of going to Canada this summer, but because I do not have a passport or enough preparations, I don't think I will be going. But let me tell you about it. It's a French immersion program in Nova Scotia. Had I a passport and everything else a couple of months ago, I would have been able to go, but life is life. Any way, the thought of going to another country and speaking only in French so soon after high school is such a cool idea to me. It would have been a perfect time, but circumstances stand in my way. If you are a business major or minor, you can apply for a grant to study in Canada and work with French or English and get experience outside of America. :) So, I highly encourage people in this field to go!

I'm still trying to catch up on work and study for my finals. It'll be a crazy end to the semester, but so worth it if everything pans out! College is busy, but so great. I'm so very glad I came to UCA and met all the people I have so far and spend time with them.

I'm going to go in another direction here, because I spaced out and lost my train of thought. And the sweet, sweet coolness of the air conditioner. Which is turned back on, by the way. For a while we had neither heater nor air conditioner. And it seems summer is wanting to come, as the temperature has gone up to 87 degrees Fahrenheit today. Now, heat is all good and everything -- helps the Earth not die and whatever -- but I dislike heat. I like my coldness. You know? You can do something about the cold: put on more clothes. But with heat, it's just. Hot. And sticky. And burning. And makes me tired and energyless. Boo on heat. But it can be good as well, I suppose.

Even though it's getting hotter, I am looking forward to summer. So, we're on a countdown to summer, now. And that countdown is over after May 8, 2009 for me. :)

I'll blog again before then. And I'll continue in next year, too! So sophomore experience will be fun! I'll be living in Baridon which is the building right behind my current dorm of Short/Denney hall. :) So I'm not going too far next year and get to room with my friend I made here. He will be an RA. I just have to find another friend to room with me.

Ahhh! Next year will be great! I'll be taking some new classes, but even boring classes have interesting times, so we'll see how it all comes out. This semester still has a lot to go before it's over though, so I will have to wait! :)

See you all again!
