A window inside life at Augustana College

Before starting college we were all bombarded with advice. Try new things, buy your books online, don’t party too much, etc… Let’s be honest, we didn’t pay much attention to some of the things we were told becuase we didn’t think they would be true, for example: Most of your assignments will be reading…TRUE!

Well, to be honest- it’s been a struggling week, what with allergies, being sick, and midterms, yuck. However….thankfully the weekend has much in store!

First impressions mean more to me than anyone could ever surmise. It’s incredibly difficult to simply write this first post and be done with it; it must display a personality and a physique of its own! It cannot be drab and dull, you know?
