"I will now contemplate the Sun."

Hello all,
I hope all is well in your world. College is going well. I am starting to get used to some of my classes, which is always nice. My Foundations 112 and Philosophy 201 are quite involved, as far as reading goes, but they are very interesting and rewarding. I really enjoy all of my classes this semester. I am involved in a lot of different programs at this point, which I enjoy. I keep very busy with cheerleading and fraternity stuff as well as school work, but being busy is part of the fun at college.
I got back from Georgia the other day. Cheerleading gave me the opportunity to attend the qualifying competition for nationals which was held at Shorter College this year. It was a really fun trip, and I got to see my parents that weekend as well, which was awesome. I also was able to catch up on a lot of reading on the six hour drive down and the six hour drive back.
Over the last few weeks, I have discovered the joy of inter-mural sports. This is a great way to get to know people and have a lot of fun while you are at it. I played water polo for the first time the other day. I can’t tell you how tiring it is, but I am eager to try my hand at it again. I want to encourage you to get involved in different activities on campus. It is truly rewarding. However, I would caution you to watch just how involved you get. It is ok to be engaged, but if you get overly involved, college can get pretty ridiculous. Priorities and time management are a huge part of college.
I hope your senior year is going well. Keep up with high school stuff. Senior-itus is a plague, I am telling you. It hit me like a freight train my senior year of high school. Have a great week.

Hello!

Hello All,

I am currently walking once again in the winter wonderland that is Georgetown College. I cannot tell you how much precipitation, in the form of snow, this campus gets each year. This last week has been very hectic and stressful for lots of reasons beyond academics, but somehow everything usually gets done.

I have officially joined a fraternity. All of my brothers are great. It is awesome to be a part of something like this. Now that Rush is over, one would think things would slow down around here. On the contrary, this last week has been my busiest yet. This seems to be the general consensus all around campus. Cheerleading has been incredibly busy as we have competition in a week.

On a brighter note, all of my classes are going well as of now. I have a presentation and a test next week along with a couple of papers, but it should all work out. In the next few hours I am going to try and bust out some of the homework I have for this week. We will see how all of that goes.

As I type, the snow is falling faster and faster. It is just one solid sheet of white outside my window. We have not had a snow day yet, but today could definitely be the day. I hope all of your second semesters are going well. Remember to take these last few months seriously; you won’t regret it.

Sorry for the brevity of my blog this week. My life has been consumed by cheerleading practice, fraternity stuff and school work. I hope you all have a great week. I am off to finish up some more homework. Until next time…
