A window inside life at Augustana College
When I first started at Augie, I really wasn’t sure how I would feel about having to take finals three times per year, but now that I have gone through my first round of them, I am confident in my assumption that it will be easy! In high school, you only have to take finals [...]

October 31. Halloween. That typically means candy and costumes. This year it means a political science textbook and a whole lot of notecards! But the food aspect is covered with bags of popcorn, dark chocolate, pound cake, and lots of orange juice. With my last final tomorrow, I spent my day studying for it and [...]

“I’ve heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason/Bringing something we must learn/And we are led to those who help us most to grow if we let them/And we help them in return/Well, I don’t know if I believe that’s true/But I know I’m who I am today/Because I knew you…” [...]

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 [...]

Considering I only have one final now, which is on Thursday, I have three days to do basically nothing. So I decided to make up a list of things I will do, so I can feel like I was productive. 1) Learn how to play N64 2) Finish season 3 of Greek 3) Figure out [...]

Not sleep! Whoa. Though it probably should be on account of finals… NAH (I may regret this come monday ._.) I recently stumbled upon rainymood.com (not through stumbleupon, but brotips :]), which is basically just continuous rain. It’s rather lovely. While on the site, it recommends a song to play while listening to the rain. [...]

So I know it’s been awhile since I had the chance to blog and I apologize for not keeping everyone updated. Finals week was….interesting. I practically lived in the library. The finals themselves were a tiny bit less terrifying than I thought they would be. All the studying paid off and I am happy with [...]

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 [...]

I just finished my final paper before starting my fall break. One thing that helped me relax while trying to study for finals, was pulling out my camera on campus for the first time. I am really going to miss the beauty of campus in the fall. The leaves look perfect. By the time the [...]

So there are probably a lot of people stressing about finals week right now. I’m not one of them. For me, my first week of finals in college has probably been my most relaxing and boring. I’m not the kind of person who has to study for hours and hours. So honestly, I just don’t have [...]
