A window inside life at Augustana College
As I arrived on campus on Sunday, I was amazed by how quickly I felt back in the swing of things. I had a great three weeks home with my family and friends, but I was beyond excited to be back with my school friends in the place that so quickly became home to me. [...]

Well I am officially back from Thanksgiving break and trying to get back into the swing of school. I honestly really don’t like winter term because it has all these breaks. You go to school for a week and a few days only to go on Thanksgiving break. You go back to school for three [...]

So I found out my dorm last week. I’m not gonna say that I wanted to live in Andreen, but I’m still excited no matter what dorm I live in. It is no joke when people say that college is expensive. There is so much that goes into just stepping on to campus on the first [...]

For the first time in my recent memory, it’s Thursday afternoon and quiet on the 5th floor of the library. As I’m sitting by myself with a super cookie and the remainder of what the Brew has to offer, I tell myself to forget about my current responsibilities for a moment. Listen to the buzzing [...]

First of all, I realize I haven’t blogged in almost exactly four months, but there’s a good reason for that–Augustana took over my life. Not to get all mushy and sentimental, but it seems like it was just yesterday when I was moving into Swanson and hugging my parents goodbye at the Fall Connection kick-off. [...]

I found this in my journal a couple days after an all-nighter. I don’t remember writing it, but it was in my handwriting, so there’s a slim chance that anyone else planted it there. I figured that it’s worth sharing. Some stuff had to be cut out for personal reasons, but overall, I have a [...]

For the last week of winter break, I got to go on vacation with my family to Orlando, Florida. That being said, I am incredibly sad that break officially ends tomorrow. Since they say pictures speak louder than words, I am going to show you all my break through pictures (especially since I brought my new [...]

My last post was about one of my biggest enemies, Week 10. This post, however, will ramble a bit about one of my newest and most delightful friends–Week 1. Since Augustana’s on trimesters, we recently started our winter term. Most people are taking four classes; however, I only have to take three thanks to taking [...]

I am proud to say that I survived my first college term! The past few weeks have been bitter sweet and full of new experiences. I expected leaving home to be hard, but surprising adjusted fairly easily. Changing my high school study habits was the next step. It just took a couple of days and [...]
