So the year is almost over, thank god! I’m just going to reflect on the year, the semester and everything about my freshman year. Let me just start off by saying, I love Virginia tech. I am so glad I chose to go here, and I have no regrets about it. I am not going to drop out on engineering. I came into college thinking it was going to be challenging and I would actually have to try, and guess what? I did. College is not easy, and I learned that the hard way. My first semester was hard, but I got the hand of school once second semester rolled around. I’m still not on top of my classes, but it’s a hard transition from high school, where I didn’t do anything to college where I have to do so much work. It was a tough challenge, but I made it through.
Throughout the year I met so many people, which I love. Now that summer is coming up, they are all leaving. I don’t talk to my high school friends anymore, so I don’t know what I’m going to do all summer without my new friends. I’m going to be working, and taking a summer class. I will still have Brian, but you know it gets annoying when you spend every time you have with just one person. I like spending my time with others, mixing it up. When you spend too much time with one person, they start to get annoying and then you don’t want to spend any time with them anymore. I will definitely be visiting people though. Hopefully I will be able to leave work and have some sort of vacation. I will be going to Virginia Beach, Maryland, and New York. Maybe some other places in between.
Summer is so bittersweet. I’m glad I don’t have to go to class anymore, except for my summer class. But all my new friends are leaving, so I’m going to be stuck in Blacksburg alone. Hopefully next year more people will have apartments so they will be staying in town during the summer.
I hope everyone has a great summer.
