I am free! š
This is a little bittersweet though. Itās been the best semester of college by far, potentially the best of my life ever. It was much needed after the worst semester of college and my life ever last semester. But this one has been awesome. I am a little sad itās over and that I wonāt see a lot of my friends and professors or be on Druryās campus until January. But then I remember Iām going to LONDON in 3 months so I stop being sad pretty quick.
I actually havenāt been that stressed out this week. Iāve been stressed all semester, in a good way though. It kept me busy and kept me going all the time, but I just feel so satisfied when I check things off my list of things to do, so Iāve been managing my time really well. Considering how much Iāve been working, Iāve had to. So I never got panicked-stressed out.
Friday night we had our final Summit project presentations. Hereās me and my roommates outside our house wearing our Volunteer shirts we got from the shelter.
Today I had my final presentation of my research project. I still canāt believe that dang project that wouldnāt go away is⦠gone. If anyoneās interested in learning about Media Framing of the Sandy Hook Shooting and wants to read a 17-page paper about it, hit me up. My mom told me she thought it would be really boring but it kept her attention. So thereās a testimonial, if youāre skeptical.
I got my final grades for my two Spanish classes where I have an awesome teacher. 97.75% in Spanish 302 and 97.6% in Senior Seminar! I got a 98% on both of my final papers. The other day I was talking to my professor and she said Iāve really improved a lot and I am probably one of the ones who have improved the most.
Hereās a picture of me and my class at her house after the Iniciación ceremony for the Sigma Delta Pi honor society! Those little kids are another professorās kids.
Iām really going to miss my Spanish class!
I donāt know what to do with myself now. Probably eat a lot of food, right? Iāve been having a lot of Chipotle and pizza lately.
Or maybe I should work on cleaning this:
⦠Nah. Iām going to enjoy my freedom for now.
Hereās a list of some of the best things about this semester (no particular order):
- Going to Atlanta to watch the basketball team win the national championship
- Getting the outstanding sophomore in the communication department award
- Eating dinner at my Spanish professorās house with my class
- Winning extra credit for our research poster
- A cat named Georgie at the animal shelter
- IPHONE
- Getting prepared to go to London
- Making new friends with people in my classes
- Being addicted to the Jodi Arias trial (Guilty- first degree premeditated murder)
- Going to St. Louis for a weekend with Caitlin
- Not having any classes I hate
- Not having calculus which is the ultimate class I hate
Iāll be home on Friday night, see you guys for Dirty Dancing on Saturday night! Iāll make some snakes. Oops I meant to say snacks, but itās funny that I said snakes instead so I decided not to change it.
And t-minus six days until the Of Monsters and Men concert! That kind of snuck up on us, didnāt it? Hooray!

P.S. Let’s come watch Andy Roddick play on the Springfield Lasers tennis team sometime this summer! I don’t really know anything about him but I know you guys do.
P.P.S. I’m still in shock it’s summer now. IT’S SUMMER RIGHT NOW. It feels like it was just last summer, right? I’m so excited for pie-worthy stories and sitting on the big rock at Bass Pro and being scared of creepy people and raccoons. Can we go camping on your property again, Kendyl? I wonder if Nick will be allowed this year.
P.P.P.S. How is it that we graduated from Chrisman 2 years ago? How is it that we just finished our SOPHOMORE YEAR OF COLLEGE?
