Peace at last

I feel as if I am settling into college life quite nicely. I think this is the type of thing that I needed from the beginning. In a way, it was exactly what I'd been hoping for when I thought of college. I'm a pretty low-key person. I don't need to go to clubs or go out every single night to be happy. I'm fine with staying in with a good book or watching my favorite TV shows with people who are equally as obsessed. So lately not much has been going on. Some would say it has been boring, but I am thriving. After 18 years of living in a house full of loud cousins and aunts and various other extended family members, a little peace and quiet is greatly appreciated.

I am not a morning person so my afternoon classes suit me perfectly. I wake up earlier than I need to and get some things done before I even have class. I have yet to explore the whole campus, but so far I have been pleasantly surprised by what I have found. I really want to go to the crafts center and look around or play some bowling at the M.U. Classes have been good. Linguistics is quickly becoming one of my favorite classes. I wonder what type of career a person would have with a Linguistics degree. Things to ponder. Statistics is ok for now, although sometimes I feel as if my professor has no idea what he's doing. Here's hoping the discussion section is a good one. I'm really nervous, however, about the impending doom that is midterms and finals and term papers, etc. It all is really quite intimidating. I believe that I am organized enough to handle everything, but I can't say for sure until I've experienced it. My study habits are good lately, I've been getting in a lot of reading time.

I should wrap this up soon, I have to bike off to class! I loooooove biking, it's so refreshing and easy. Although it is rush hour right about now, I should get an early start. I'll update again later. Toodles :)

school, biking, college, stress, family
