Today was the last day of my first semester of college! I survived (at least I think I did)! Not all of my grades are in yet but they should be in the next couple of days. I am really hoping to pass all of my classes so I don't have to take them again. For nursing you have to have a C to be passing, which is a number grade of mid 70's- high 70's. The only classes I am really worried about are Chemistry, lab, and Sociology. They are classes that I struggled in a little. When I receive all of my grades I will post them but until then I'll do a recap of what the last 3 and a half months have been like.
August
I spent all of August moving in, getting settled, and making friends. Some of the friends I made in August I'm not friends with now and that's ok.
September
I continued to make friends and this time I keep them. I started going out to parties more and enjoying myself more. At the end of September I had a moment of weakness and will never drink as much as I did that last weekend. I really got into my class and all of the work started here. I started using Twitter this month and love it!
October
I celebrated my roommates birthday at the very beginning of the month. We and another month of going out and having a good time. During this month I fell for a boy that I have been off and on with, We spent a whole month together before it got a little too much. I had a 4 day Fall break. Two days of the break I went to my friend's house an hour and half away. I did have a little problem with my parents not being happy that I wasn't talking to them as much. We had Halloween at the end of the month and me and my roommate finally got to dress up as Batman and Robin!
November
November was a choppy month. We had another 4 day break for Thanksgiving. There were less times to go out and party. My sister's birthday was towards the end of the month. We started decorating and planning for Christmas. The Christmas music started before Thanksgiving. At times I wanted to kill some of my friends. Things ended this month with the boy. I went back to my old high school and had a great time. I saw some of my old friends.
December
Only two weeks of December were in the first semester. One week was spent going to class for the last time and the other was finals week. My two friends stopped going out this month and we had the only weekend there be a dramatic one. I started things with the boy again but as of right now its kind of complicated. I enjoyed two weeks at school before I had a month off.
There really aren't any pictures from December because we were there for such a short amount of time. MOst of the time was spent doing work and studying. I hope everyone who is in college had a wonderful first semester. Here's to next semester!
