Almost Over

So, it is almost the end of my first year in college! Can you believe it?? I can't really grasp that yet, but when I think back on all that has happened, wow, a lot has changed, for the better might I add. This past week, we had Dragon Registration Days, and I realized that one year ago from this exact week, I was here on campus signing up for classes, learning about the Dragon curriculum, and getting my work study job with Admissions... Back then I was doing all that, and getting ready for Prom, graduation, and extra-curricular activities. Since then, I have moved out of the house (still miss my dog!), moved away from my hometown, created an entirely new circle of friends (and yes, i still have my friends from back home), found financial independence, and in general became more independent. I never realized how much it meant to gain all of that. Now, that I am moving back home for the summer, it's strange to think I won't have 30 girls to socialize with at any given time in the evening. All of us girls in Dahl Hall (an all female residence hall on campus) are going back home. These girls have become not only my friends but also my family. Luckily, Facebook exists, but my time in our hall will never be forgotten and our memories made together will always be there to look back on with a smile.

Spring is Here!

Hello everyone!
I'm so happy to report that spring is finally here!!!! It makes me so happy. Last week I was ecstatic with the fact that I could drive with my windows down, and today, I could walk outside in flip flops and no coat!!! Better yet, it's going to be 64 degrees out tomorrow! Woot woot!
If you haven't picked up on it yet, I love spring. It's my favorite season. It's when everything blooms and comes to life again.
On another note, final projects and papers are getting assigned and man oh man, I'm going to be busy! I shot half of my final film project last week and it went great, I'm excited to see the footage when it gets back from the processing lab! I'm shooting the last half on Thursday and then am also recording sound tomorrow and Thursday as well if possible. And I have to admit, this film has been and IS an adventure. It was my first challenge as shooting my own solo project, whereas normally it's a group assignment. I had to come up with a plot, types of shots, and what my message is. I would leak my idea out, but then what's the point of adding a shameless plug about our screening evening coming in the beginning/mid May? I'm sure that I will post about the date, so stay tuned!!

It's crazy to think that by this time next month school will be over!!
Now, go outside and enjoy this BEAUTIFUL weather!! I know we all have Spring Fever :)
