Longwood visit/Outside event!

I fell in love with Longwood University when I recently visited the campus. Since I am graduating a semester early from Richard Bland College, I went to talk with an adviser about the transfer process, get answers to questions I had and also for apartment searching. Although it was very overwhelming to think that I will be "living on my own", I am more than ready to be independent and actually have the college experience most young adults dream of. I have talked to people there and they either love it or hate it. Most people say that there is not much to do since Farmville because the town is so small, but I am hoping that I enjoy it when I get there. My mom, dad & I had an appointment with a lady at Longwood and it made me feel a lot better about going and answered a lot of questions that we had. I am really looking forward to the events that Longwood offers like concerts and “games” that the student body puts on and especially the gym facility that is fairly new. The apartments are really nice and also that most of them are close by. Not only did this accomplish a lot of educational questions, it was good to spend a day away from Enon with my parents! I am more than proud to hopefully soon become and Longwood Lancer!

The last two & a half weeks of my first year of college...

I can't believe that my first year of college is almost over. I guess I expected it to be hard and that I would basically "teach" myself in the majority of my classes. The biggest lesson I have learned is that I need to put studying and school first. For me, it's always been hard to prioritize what I need to do first and get done. I guess you could say I have slacked off in a couple of classes and it is killing me. I am beyond stressed and it does not help that I have anxiety... I have a long list of things that I have to get done in order to complete this semester. I am hoping that I do really well on my exams and they bring all of my grades up! I guess I should start studying this weekend for some of them...Best of luck to everyone's last couple of weeks!

coming to an end...

I am really starting to stress about the last couple of weeks of school. As for English, I still haven't written the second & third paper because I don't really know how to do it correctly. Also, I haven't even thought about the portfolio... In my art appreciation class we have to write two papers for our final. I am starting to stress about not doing well enough so I can transfer. Biology is hard as crap and I really could care less about plants. On the other hand, I am trying to make my schedule for the next semester and it is really stressful. I have never had to meet with an advisor before and it is making it really difficult to continue with my process because I cant even meet with the lady. I am taking 2 online summer classes this summer and I don't even know if it is necessary. I have to fill out a sheet to even get my alternate pin number. The whole transfer process is really stressful and I just hope I am on the right track. What really pisses me of is that I have to take a bunch of classes that I wont even need at Longwood....
