Y'all! School Has Been Hectic!
Considering it has been almost a month and a half since school has started, I think I have had sufficient enough time to decide how I feel about my classes and whatnot. Also, I just haven't had time to blog because of how busy this semester has been!
I have been enjoying my classes, for sure. Several of them are pretty reading heavy, so it is getting tough to keep up with all of my assigned readings. The classes I am enjoying the most have to be Social Psychology and Introduction to Creative Writing. Social Psych is the perfect bridge between my two fields of sociology and psychology, so it keeps me interested for sure. As for Intro to Creative Writing, I have been pushed out my comfort zone, which is reading books, into actually doing the writing part of that. We just finished our prose section and I had a ton of fun with writing a fiction alternate dimension story.
We're starting to get into the time of year where we are taking our first tests of the semester, which is always nerve-wracking. We had our first exam in Cognition last week and I actually did really well on it! I'm not saying I would normally do bad on exams, this course just requires you to remember a lot of specific details about the brain and its functioning.
In other news, tonight is the Pledge Ceremony for this class of recruits for SAI and I could not be more excited because we are adding FIVE new members to our club! I may have mentioned this before, but our club's size has been going down recently. After those that graduated last year were gone, our club was down to 8 members, and then one went inactive for this semester, so we currently only have 7. So, needless to say, we are in significant need of these new MITs! I think this is the first time in a couple of years that we have rushed in both the Fall and the Spring, and it is proving to be very beneficial to our club! Also, with this new class of members, I finally get a Little! I am so excited to be a Big and can't wait to see what these new girlies do for our club!
I have also been trying to actually hang out with my friends, because I am SO stinking bad at saying "Hey, we should hang out soon!" and then never actually making plans. So I actually have been doing stuff! I've gone adventuring and played pool with friends and know that more fun times will come!
I don't have very many pictures from this year so far, but I will share with you guys some pictures from TWIRP and whatever other things I've managed to capture so far! Thanks for reading guys! ~Em
